For many years, Taylor Swift has been held up as the prime example of the woman who can’t win at relationships.
Sure, she’s one of the best-selling artists of all time. Yes, her singles have been downloaded more than 130 million times. And definitely, she’s a hero to millions of girls around the world.
But, underneath all of that, there’s a sad belief: Taylor Swift just can’t get it right at relationships.
Following the end of her 15-month relationship with DJ, Calvin Harris, people once again took the opportunity to shame Taylor and her “many” ex-boyfriends.
The Sun wrote an “investigative” piece examining the real reasons why Harris just couldn’t put up with Swift anymore.
“Did Taylor overshare…[she] just couldn’t resist showing off her man,” the site wrote.
What was the last text you received from your ex? (Post continues after video.)
An “insider” (I know, very reliable) told E! News that Harris was “bored” in the relationship.
“Taylor wanted more attention than Adam gave,” the very reliable, very credible source told the outlet. “[He] was hoping the spark would come back, but it hasn’t.

Why should she have to 'make' a relationship work? You shouldn't need to 'make' anything work. If it's meant to be then it just works on its own. If guys feel she is too clingy, too public etc.... then they are not the right guy. The right guy won't think she's clingy at all. He'll love her for who she is. And where's the rule book that says you must only date one guy? This is not 1923! A man who dates a lot of women is a stud, a women who dates a lot of men is somehow a failure?! That's bullshit. I see Taylor Swift as a woman who is strong and successful, who is enjoying her youth and fame without being a brat about it. Whether she's playing the field deliberately or searching for the one and just hasn't found him yet I don't care. I don't judge a woman by the amount of men she dates. I prefer to see if someone is honest, kind, thoughtful, a good person who treats others well. Now, I don't know Taylor but she appears to be all those things. That's enough for me.
you do need to be willing to work for a relationship. The idea it shouldn't be work is romantic and far from reality. I used to believe it shouldn't take work but it does. Not at first but usually the first year living together takes work on both sides. I could have moved on when my marriage was hard work but I trusted that we loved each other and the other stuff was just stuff we had to work on together. It's when you stop caring or working on it that things go to hell. I split from my husband for a year but 16 years on I'm glad we worked it out.
It can't always be easy I don't judge Taylor as dating is normal sometimes it takes a while to find someone worth the effort
All relationships take work, if your not doing any then the other person is doing ALL of it, this is not a recipe for long term success.... not many people like doing all the giving all the time.
People need to take a step back & realise it's a very rare person who would CHOOSE this (serial dating). If I could snap my fingers and be with my perfect match then I would be but we're not all that lucky!
