You meet someone, you fall in love, you're constantly going on romantic dinner dates and sharing ice cream on the couch, and before you know it…you've gained (dun, dun, dun!) the love layer.

Kirsten Dunst says that she's put on some weight since being in a relationship with Garrett Hedlund, but says isn't obsessing over it one bit.

"I've got a little bit more of a tummy now, so although I own about 20 pairs of jeans, I'll wear the same three for a year because the rest are from when I was skinnier," she told Net-a-Porter's The Edit.

"I guess if I wasn't comfortable and in a relationship I'd be thinner. When you're with someone, you eat so much more and you chill out for a bit—but I don't criticize myself more than is healthy, because there's such a lot of that, isn't there?"

The 32-year-old actress added, "Whether it's girls among themselves or magazines, it's all about women tearing apart other women. I don't get why that's so prevalent right now."

And speaking about relationships, Dunst recently admitted that she's ready to settle down and start a family with her actor beau.

She recently told Red U.K.'s September issue, "Thirty-three is a good age to have your first baby. I'm in baby mode because two of my really good friends are pregnant right now."
