(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Reese Witherspoon says chasing boys is good fun, especially when youre young.

The 34-year-old actress has previously romanced film star Jake Gyllenhaal and was married to actor Ryan Phillippe with whom she has two children; Ava, 11, and Deacon, seven.

Reese is currently dating Hollywood agent Jim Toth, and admits she has become wiser about romance as she has grown older. The beauty thinks flirting and pursuing potential suitors can be really enjoyable, and shouldnt be taken too seriously during a persons young, free and single days.

Because boy is it fun, chasing boys - especially when you're young, she laughed.

Reese recalled a moment when one of her pals explained to her how essential it is to realise when a man is attracted to you. The friend warned Reese its far more important to consider men who are chasing you, rather than wasting efforts on those who arent interested.

You know, don't follow the guy you're chasing, look at the guy who's chasing you. I think that takes time, and sort of life experience to notice, explained Reese. (C) Cover Media
