Susan Sarandon dating Jonathan Bricklin?

Los Angeles: Oscar-winner Susan Sarandon is reportedly dating Jonathan Bricklin after developing a close friendship with him.The 67-year-old actress and Bricklin, 36, who are co-investors in a bar, have regularly denied rumours about dating, reported a magazine. During an interview, Sarandon said," Jonathan and I collaborate on different things. That means a lot of things."

When asked if that means a romance, she says, "Yeah, I think so." The actress, who split from actor Tim Robbins in 2009, revealed she decided to leave him after starring in the comedy about death, `Exit the King,` on Broadway in New York City that year. She said it helped her to form a decision about ending their relationship. "You can`t do a meditation on death and stay in a situation that`s not authentic. It made me examine where I was in my union and in my life, and to have discussions about making changes," she said. "It`s better to have made decisions that turned out badly and learn from them than to feel as if you had no choice and are resentful of the turns that your life takes," she added.
