Ain't no other man like...Matthew Rutler?

Weeks after her announced split from husband Jordan Bratman, Christina Aguilera has been seeking comfort in a brand-new guy: Matthew Rutler, a set assistant whom she met while making her new film Burlesque.

"They've been on a few dates over the last few weeks," a source tells UsMagazine.com.

Indeed, despite his attempts to hide, Rutler was photographed escorting Aguilera, 29, on a Friday double date at L.A.'s Soho House with Nicole Richie and Joel Madden.

But, cautions the source: "It's not serious. She's not looking to jump into a relationship right now. She has a lot going on with the movie and is focusing on spending as much time as possible with Max."

Wed in 2005, the singer and producer Bratman, 33, have a two-year-old son, Max.

Aguilera and Rutler befriended one another while making Burlesque, and reconnected after her September separation from Bratman.

"He's been really good for her and is helping her through this diffcult time," the source explains.

    Why don't women understand, that being by yourself for a little while after a long term relationship, is actually good for the soul.

    When will men and women ever learn that you can't just jump into the next available relationship to fix the last one?

    Well, now we know the reason why she has had such a hard time "getting out bed", didn't she say?

    "Difficult time" yet she has a new boyfriend. Can't be that difficult...

    So why is he trying to hide? Is he ashamed? Why do celebrities think they always have to be with somebody? Don't jump in so fast and it might last a little longer.

    What's funny is this: Many of the members of the paparazzi say that Christina Aguilera is on what they call "vagina-watch", which means that they are all competing to get the first photos of whomever Christina Aguilera has sex with next. They say that, whoever gets the first photos of the person that Christina Aguilera has sex with next, that photographer will be paid top-dollar for those photos, especially if her next sex-partner is another woman. Crazy, huh?

    Maybe she has one of each.

    I thought that she had a girlfriend?
