Actress Scarlett Johansson says she hit "rock botton" once after a past relationship pushed her to "breaking point".

The 31-year-old actress is now happily married to Romain Dauriac, with whom she has 19-month-old daughter Rose. But for her, it's hard to forget the difficult romance she had with someone who was always "unavailable" a few years ago, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

"Long, long ago, I had someone in my life who was forever unavailable... But, like, so attractively unavailable. You have to get to your breaking point," Johansson, who was previously married to Ryan Reynolds from 2008 until 2011, told Cosmopolitan magazine.

 

When she was done with feeling disappointed and let down, Johansson decided to cut the mystery man loose because she realised what she was missing because of waiting for him.

She said: "Rock bottom is the moment when you're like, 'I've lost myself. Why am I standing outside this bar at 1.30 in the morning texting while my friends are inside? Or taking a taxi to see him at some ungodly hour? This isn't me.' That is the moment you've gotta cut it off. Otherwise, it will keep coming back, suck your blood."
