“Yeah, I Do Feel Jaded About Relationships, To Be Honest. I Think The Media Has Sent Me A Really Unfair

I know nobody here really cares that much, but since 1989 (Taylor’s version) came out my fyp has been all about her & Harry, and so many of the videos are like “GASP was Harry one of the bad boyfriends?!”

And as someone who’s never felt any type of way about Harry, I think I like or at least respect him a little bit more after the vault tracks? Especially “is it over now?” Because I’ve seen a lot of clips of this man talking about Taylor over the years, and I’ve never seen or heard him say something disparaging or complaining about her writing songs about him. In fact, I’ve only ever seen him be like “hey, it’s her life and if she’s written anything about me, I’d be flattered. She’s so talented.” And this isn’t a new reaction, like there are interviews from that year where he says something to that effect and honestly?? Pop off, Harry.

They’re friendly enough that I’m sure he’s heard these songs before, or at least knew that she had some less than flattering ones in her back pocket, and was still like “yeah, no, I’d be honored. Are you kidding?” Like he was 20 or something when they were together and 20 year old boys are awful and shitty and apparently he’s talked about the fact that he’s a bad boyfriend before, so I love that this entire time he’s shown a level of emotional maturity and respect for her that fucking John Mayer refused to. It would’ve been so easy for him to be a dick about it, and he never was! It seems like he just went “I treated you like shit. You’re totally valid in this. Go off, queen.”

I’ve been laughing imagining him listening to the vault tracks and the “if she’s got blue eyes I can surmise that you’ll probably date her” line and being like “fuck, bro. She really called me out like that on main? Damn. I should send her flowers or something.” And then “now that we don’t talk” I can literally see him hearing the line about her mom and going “aw, Andrea. I always liked her. I hope she’s well. Fuck it, somebody send her flowers too.”

As somebody who knows nothing about him and never really got into 1d or paid close attention to his career, only passively enjoyed his music, I think these song’s coming out vastly improved my opinion of him 😂

can i ask what’s so special about 8/9? 👀

btw, 13 days since yesterday is going to be 8/9,soooo👀

Harry Styles’ mum just tweeted a buzzfeed article filled with pictures of harrys head on taylors body that is so funny what the fuck lmao

i don’t think it takes place in the present day at all! i’m even so far convinced that taylor dove into the body and mind of her 2014 self and wrote the song, how she felt during that time and the things she wanted to say/ask in that period of her life. like i’m pretty sure “you’re still with her” is the same girl that was in style “you’ve been out and about with some other girl”

I'm not fully convinced that Question...? takes place during pressnt day. It's been quite a while and the idea that Harry is still pining over Taylor, or that Taylor believes him to be, seems far-fetched. I feel like it maybe takes place around 2016 before she got committed with Joe (hence the "second-best" line) or maybe up to 2018 or so.

Of course, it definitely can still be present day. It's human to still feel petty about an ex not fighting for you, and bask in the fact that they regret not having you. And the "still with her" line fits the duration of Holivia more than anything else. But I dunno. That's the thing for me. He's been with Olivia for 2 years or so now. What reason would Taylor have to think that Harry still pines? I'm not totally convinced, but it's possible that the song represents her current thoughts. (I do think Harry probably carries *something* for her, though.) You can get a certain vibe off your ex even if you haven't spoken with them, and assume their relationship is shallow or inadequate, but I digress.

I don't necessarily even think it's more likely that the song takes place in the plast, but I don't see many people discussing the possibility.

the second option FOR SURE. first of all i care about them as people foremost and i would never selfishly wish that man on ANYONE for my own desires (1989 tv collab).. second the chances of harry having something to do with 1989 tv i feel are already small even if my delulu self is still manifesting it lol. if they reconnect there’s still a possibility at a collab! it doesn’t have to be on 1989 tv

Haylor besties: would you rather…

Harry worked on 1989 TV with Taylor and then she fumbled the bag (by hooking up with MH) OR Harry had nothing to do with 1989 TV and is potentially still open to reconnecting with Taylor (when and if single)?

the red album is so great because you can lay on your bed and listen to the whole thing and you stay captivated the entire time and when you’re done it feels like you just experienced this burning love and excruciating heartbreak and it hurts a little but it’s also a relief to know that you can survive pain like that. it’s almost like red is haunted.

"everyone wanted him, that was my crime"/"you were so magnetic it was almost obnoxious, flushed with the currency of cool"

the whole song of is it over now/"you had people who called you from unmarked numbers"

"I can't be your friend" "I can't pretend it's platonic"/"I didn't come here to make friends"

"I broke my own heart cause you were too polite to do it"/"I walked out and said I'm setting you free" "when she said it was too much, do you wish you could still touch her"

"this love came back to me" "i watch us go round and round each time" "is it over now"/"when you told me we'd get back together"

like idk how to explain it guys but suburban legends is literally so consistent and easy to understand

idk if y’all know this or not but Taylor Swift’s fourth studio album Red is one of the best albums of all time regardless of what small-minded “critics“ may say it told a beautiful, compelling, heartbreaking, and cohesive story about losing an intense love at a young age and it conveyed every individual feeling associated with heartbreak perfectly from the way the drums and the guitar in state of grace spell out a warning to the way treacherous has you on the edge of your seat with goosebumps to the unparalleled heartbreak the bass drop in ikywt says “this pain i feel isn’t just your fault, it’s my fault too” to the beautiful story that you can see play out in your head in all too well to the determination of keeping a toxic relationship out of your life and feeling good about it in wanegbt to the feeling of looking back on a love and realizing what you had was beautiful in holy ground to the feeling of pure, real, unadulterated sorrow that comes with the finality of ending something that was beautiful in sad beautiful tragic to the hopeful ending of the album when you realize that love can come back into your life when you’re ready to let it in in begin again and then the tragically forgotten bonus tracks the moment i knew that tells the story of the singular moment you realize the person you want the most isn’t coming back to you and come back be here that describes with painful conviction the feeling of being separated from the only person you want to see i mean no offense but if you don’t understand how amazing this album is then you don’t understand what it means to feel

wasn’t so it goes written/recorded in march 2nd 2015?

I think you guys are going to enjoy this reading on Taylor’s future spouse from today. Here are my highlights:

She’ll be married in less that three years (she’ll be married before she’s 38). It’ll be around the winter or fall season.

She knows this person already, it’s one of her exes.

He makes her happy and they laugh a lot together.

They’re very similar people and have known each other for lifetimes.

He’s got an outgoing persona.

They could be a confrontational person (perhaps contrarian?)

In Taylor’s head she knows it always come back around to this person.

He is giving a lot of Aquarius energy.

Their connection is very strong.

They’re not very far off in age.

Random: he likes spaghetti (lol) and also very out of the norm foods.

They have very strong sexual tension.

Reader doesn’t think this person is American.

The relationship may be hidden for quite some time.

The number 7 is quite important.

He has dark hair and slightly tan skin.

He’s in the music industry.

They could be twin flames. Reader is “very much” getting that energy.

They have a very “will they won’t they” energy (like Ross and Rachel!)

They failed in the past but they won’t let each other go again. They want to get it right this time.

They have lived similar experiences and have a mutual understanding of each other.

Reader says their energy reminds her of “Cowboy Like Me” in that they’re both good at playing the game in their industry and they’ve both got “tricks up their sleeves.”

They’ve been wanting this for a long time but circumstances and miscommunication and timing have gotten in the way

They want to create together, maybe music

This relationship is very powerful and different from Taylor’s others—it consumes her. He’s always been in her heart.

Public reaction will be split, with some being very supportive and some being haters (not surprising). It won’t be a surprise, though, because they’ve been together in the past.

They always find their way back to each other.

They will be unstoppable together.

They’ll have kids. Maybe two or three.

They’ll feel very free to be themselves with each other.

They will continue to be passionate and challenge each other. Being together completes them.
