Jennifer Aniston wishes men were more like dogs.

The unlucky-in-love actress - who recently split from singer John Mayer because he reportedly didn't want to settle down -would love the men in her life to give her the same attention as her pet dog Norman.

She told SkyMag magazine: "It wouldn't be bad if, when a man comes home, he'd run to his woman with his tail wagging.

"This sort of excitement is something I've always missed in a man to be honest."

Former 'Friends' actress Jennifer divorced actor Brad Pitt in 2005.

She has since been romantically linked with actors Vince Vaughn and Orlando Bloom and model Paul Sculfor.

It was reported last week that Jennifer has been calling John every day in a desperate bid to rekindle their romance.

A source said: "Jennifer reached out to John first. She had a few glasses of wine - then decided to throw caution to the wind and make the first move.

"John was pleasantly surprised to hear from her. He says they've been in contact pretty much every day since and he's really looking forward to seeing her again soon."

Jennifer is also reportedly finding it difficult to change the way she approaches relationships.

A source explained: "Jen just needs to be careful about not being so needy and vulnerable when it comes to men. Unfortunately, partying tends to bring that side out of her and she's a lot more appealing to John when she parties less."
