(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Ben Affleck has confessed that he panics when trying to buy his wife a Christmas present.

The actor, who is currently promoting his latest movie The Company Men, said that after months of hard work shooting the film, he now has to focus on picking the perfect gifts for his wife, Jennifer Garner, and their two children five-year-old Violet and Seraphina, aged 23 months.

The prospect of the task terrifies the 38-year-old star because his partner is so organised and thoughtful when it comes to choosing presents.

"Basically, my wife is very in-depth with all this stuff, really sharp, very thoughtful, very thorough. And so for me, I get kind of panicked, I put things off and I just don't know what to get so just buying her a present - I put more work into that than she does into buying fifteen!" He told Us.Magazine.com.

Ben also divulged that he couldnt wait to enjoy some downtime with his two daughters.

While he gets stuck into babysitting duties, Jennifer has vowed to make the most of her freedom by watching a film.

"My wife's going to a movie and then it's going to be just pure Mr. Mom time! he said. (C) Cover Media
