Jake GyllenhaalJake Gyllenhaal has revealed that he is looking to settle down and having children sometime soon, just as soon as he finds the right woman.

He told GQ magazine recently: “I’m definitely thinking about it, having a child. Look, the most important job for a man is to find the right woman. It’s the best we can do.”

“I thank my father for choosing my mother. She’s wonderful in so many ways. And she chose well too.”

“I’ve noticed in life that the mother, first, has a primary job [as a mother] and as a father, our job is to pick a caring, smart, mindful woman [to do that].”

Jake has been linked to a number of women, including Natalie Portman, since his split from Kirsten Dunst in December 2005 but Natalie and Jake insist that they are just friends.
