SMART. Check. Handsome. Check. Not from Hollywood. Check. Loves dogs. Super check.

Those close to Jennifer Aniston say that her new boyfriend ticks all the boxes.

For the past few months the 56-year-old Hollywood beauty has been spending a lot of time with Jim Curtis, a successful life coach and speaker – and by all accounts things are getting serious.

The biggest clue that Jen thinks he's a keeper? She's introduced the 50-year-old to her inner circle.

Since they were first linked in July, Jen and Jim have stepped out on double dates with two of her closest friends – former Friends costar Courteney Cox and actor Jason Bateman.

Jen, who a few years ago said she wasn't keen to date anyone from the world of showbiz again, is “in a great place” right now.

“Jim is great,” a source tells People. “Her close friends love him, he's amazing to be around. He has this really calm and secure energy. Jen loves it.”

Apparently the author and hypnotherapist has helped her to take a step back from her busy career and turn inwards.

“He is teaching her to really appreciate and feel proud of everything she's built.

“She can be very hard on herself. He supports her in a way that feels new. He feels very safe for her.” There's even talk he may be The One.

“She deserves all the happiness and love from a good guy, and so far he is checking all the boxes,” a pal close to the star says.

In their first joint public appearance, Jim showed up to support Jen at the launch of her haircare brand LolaVie's new dry shampoo in Los Angeles recently.

In a video shared from the event on social media, the silver fox could be seen sitting among the other guests as his famous girlfriend worked the room.

“He was low-key, engaged, laughing. He seemed very happy to be there,” an eyewitness told Entertainment Tonight.

Fans were quick to show their support for the former Friends star's new relationship.
