On Monday, Aug. 4, Aniston and Curtis were joined by Jason Bateman and his wife Amanda Anka for a double date in the West Village.

Multiple sources have confirmed to PEOPLE that the actress has been dating Curtis for a few months.

Curtis, an author and life coach who specializes in hypnotherapy, is “very different from anyone she’s dated before,” the source said.
“She’s been happy on her own, but she’s also open to sharing her life with someone. As long as it feels right. Jen’s in a very good place right now — grounded, fulfilled and very happy.”
They were first seen together on a yacht trip in Mallorca in July.
Aniston sparked romance rumors with Curtis after he was spotted with her as she enjoyed a European vacation with Bateman and Anka and Amy Schumer.
In photos from onboard the yacht, the pair looked close, with Curtis seeming to hold her hand at one point and rub her shoulders at another time.

After returning from the trip, Curtis reflected on his time away in a newsletter, per Page Six.
“When I was sick, sad, stuck and in pain, I never thought I would have the abundance, joy and love I now experience on a daily basis,” he wrote.
“I just took one step, made one decision and the next followed — now I look back and realize, oh! That course, that life change, that pain, resulted in this magic.”
