(June 25) -- It turns out all of those sappy lyrics might actually mean that John Mayer is a good, honorable guy after all.

Mayer reportedly manned up and called his ex-girlfriend, 'Friday Night Lights' starlet Minka Kelly, to warn her that she'd likely be seeing tabloid reports about his new girlfriend -- Jennifer Aniston, Page Six reports. A source said that Kelly "received a call from John prior to the story breaking about his relationship with Jennifer."

"It wouldnt be much of a surprise to anybody if they moved in together before years end, a friend of Jen tells OK! in their new issue. And if they do, you can bet there will be serious discussions about having children.

OK!

Aniston has accompanied Mayer on a European tour since the end of June.

According to the source, Mayer told Kelly "Sorry, but I'm really in love." The source also says that while Mayer and Kelly were dating, Mayer made a comment about his impending girlfriend that now seems confusing. "I don't really get this Jennifer Aniston thing," he reportedly said to Kelly.

Aniston and Mayer have been photographed out and about over the last few months, whether it's poolside or hanging out at Aniston's former 'Friends' co-star Courteney Cox's house. Neither have commented publicly on the relationship.

In an interview with Britain's Telegraph newspaper, Mayer discusses the public's perception of him these days, now that he's gone through a handful of A-list girlfriends. He swears that he's "never cheated on anybody," and that "instead of worrying about career damage," he's simply "dated women."

He goes on to explain his view as such: "All I've ever done was decided that I fancied somebody, and said, 'Would you like to go out and get a meal somewhere?' And done so in a social setting, where other people can see you. And then maybe 'Would you like to go have another meal?' Maybe did that a few times."

Mayer insists he's loyal to his girlfriends, saying the when he realizes he was done with the relationship, he tells them he'd "rather be a great friend to you than a bad boyfriend."

Great guitar player??? Like Kenny Wayne Shepard or Eric Clapton or Joe Satriani ??? Or are we talking like average guitar player? Like some dork in a grunge band that can only play 3 chords?

Why oh why does AOL and the rest of the media continue to put drivel like this on the internet. John Mayer is a second rate muscian at best. Good guitar player but he wastes his talent on putting out crap like "You're body is a wonderland" and "Waiting for the world to change". Suck, Suck, Suck! Doesn't anyone think it is more about arrogance than being classy or decent that he lets his ex-girlfriend know she might be seeing him and Jen in the tabloids. What a snapperhead! By the way John, if you're going to get yourself inked up like a biker and try to look like a tough guy you better put out some music with more balls than the wuss crap you've been recording.
