“But the person who didn’t get the focus was Shailene,” our source continued. “She was doing her own thing for her career and just wanted more support from Aaron that just didn’t happen. She wanted to have him be more present and invested in her and the relationship, and it didn’t happen. She thought she was taken for granted and it led to the [downfall of the] romance.”
