Jeremy Renner 'Women will come in second to my career'

Jeremy Renner puts women second to his career.

“I never dated, because I couldn’t afford to date. I didn’t even have electricity. You try to put a positive spin on it, like, ‘Hey, this is so sexy look at all these candles!’ ” the actor admits in the December issue of Details.

“But I loved what I was doing.

“The sacrifices I made in personal relationships had the biggest effect on my life. Even now, any woman would take a No. 2 seat to my job.”

Renner says he has “a wonderful life,” however “it means nothing if it cannot be shared.”

“Right now the only thing consistent in my life is that little dog. That’s why I got it. I was getting really lonely,” he says. “I needed somebody or something to be there with me through the whole journey.”
