Britney and Justin Luv

"Justin [Timberlake] is everything, and what more could you want in a person? He's funny. He's cute. He's great. He just understands. I get him and he gets me, and that's cool"

From November issue of Cosmo Girl with Justin on the cover"When there’s a chemistry between you and someone that you care deeply about, it really doesn’t matter who knows and who doesn’t know. It’s really between you and that person. That’s how Brit and I are. As long as we know we love each other and we care about each other, we don’t have to prove ourselves to the world or whoever else. If we’re out together, we just focus on us and on us alone. Yeah we realize we are celebrities and in the spotlight on a consistent basis. But before we’re celebrities, we’re Britney and Justin and even after being celebrities, we’ll still be Britney and Justin. Timberlake also tells the magazine about how him and Spears laughed about the rumors of the couple being engaged. "When I heard, I called her and started to ask her questions about what kind of flowers she wanted, what the colors were and things like that and she thought I was crazy. And then I explained it to her and she started laughing hysterically. She told me that during her show she would wear a big-ass ring just keep people talking." 9/26/00

10/5/01-Britney Spears says she will "definitely" marry her *NSync boyfriend Justin Timberlake. The couple have known each other since they were 12. The virginal Britney said: "Nothing can describe our relationship. Words can't express how we are. What I have with him is so secret and special.
'Separate career and life'
"I will love Justin for the rest of my life and we will definitely get married in the future."

"I will always love him (Justin) but as time goes on it becomes easier to deal with" - Britney talking about her and Justin splitting

''I may not ever get over her,'' Justin tells Rolling Stone magazine. ''I really do still love that girl.''

"He was my first real love," said Britney, 21, "and I doubt I'll ever be able to find love like that again."

"When we were together it was bliss, like something out of a damn fairy tale," he revealed "But right now, it's just so hard. I'm the type of person, if I'm not exactly sure about something, then I'll wait it out and see."

"I may not ever get over her. That's why I'm kind of chilling. I'm waiting to see. I do have to come to the realization that I might never."

"I just know they're going to end up back together again," said Britney's personal assistant, Felicia Culotta. "They've loved each other since they were kids and they're such great friends still. They were in love from the beginning."

"It's a little crazy. When a person like her, who's obviously a sweet person, is having their first child, it's like, 'leave the girl alone, let her have the baby!... I do think that's crossing the line. That's her baby and those are her baby pictures... At some point, you're going to know about her son and get to see a picture. These magazines work week-to-week, so I don't understand why people can't wait. Wait a week when she's comfortable putting it out, that's her family!"  Justin tells Accesshollywood in 2005

During a radio interview for the promotion of his latest album FutureSex/LoveSound, Justin was asked if it felt akward that TRL cut him for a moment to announce Britney had given birth to her second child. He went on to say that no, it didn't. When asked if he still talked with Britney sometimes, he added "no, you guys are the ones trying to make it akward, I'm happy for the girl.

People expect her to not return and that she is over with. As someone who has been with her in a relationship and seen her work in the music industry, along with almost everyone in the business, knows to not count her out." He added

"There's no ill will—I have nothing but love for her. It's funny because we dated each other at a time…wow, I haven't talked about this in a long time. It's interesting.

…. What I do know about her is she has a huge heart, and she is a great person." Justin tells Oprah in 2007

"Everybody is rooting for her, and that's a good thing. I'm on that bandwagon too. I don't want to see anybody unhappy."- Justin Timberlake in an interview to the Daily Mail. August 2008.
