Sorry to disappoint you, but I’m not even familiar with half her music. I’d miserably fail any trivia game about her music or her life.

But I know mean girls and bullies when I see them. Healthy, mature adults don’t spend any time talking about, thinking about, or learning about things and people I don’t like or think are awful.

You don’t like her because she sees you too.

The haters' obsession with her is a classic example of mean girls and bullies. They know every intimate detail of her life (or at least, they think they do) yet they claim they can't stand her. They actually obsessed.

That song is so out of place on the album. One theory is she is saying she doesnt regret ruining her friendship with mattt by dating. I dont know if I buy it. Did they have a friendship or a ten year fliration? Maybe she just needed a 12th song for her 12th album?


Oh for God’s sake. That song is about her good friend from HS who died and how she wished she had “ruined the friendship” by seeing if it could have been more. The boy’s mother even commented on it. It has nothing to do with MH and some of you need to move on, already.

Yea duh. Everyone knows that. Why is it on this album with musical references to 1975 songs? Art has multiple meanings. I dont actually think she is talking anout mh here, but that is one theoey out there - that one layer/meaning of this song is after it all she doesnt regret going for it because she answered the question (remember her song question is about mh).


Exactly. Taylor is famous for using double meanings, red herrings and mixing up/making up events in her songs so that it won’t be obvious who she is talking about. Only a handful of her closest people who know the details of certain muses and events can decode the clues she leaves. “You taught me a secret language I can’t speak with anyone else.”
She has done it her entire career except on TTPD, where she was obvious and didn’t give a damn.

I know Ruin The Friendship is allegedly about a HS crush who died, I just don’t buy that she is reminiscing about him 15+ years after his funeral and 20 years after she didn’t kiss him at a dance. At the end she sings “And my advice is always answer the question, better that than to ask it all your life.” It relates directly to her song Question ? on Midnights, which is supposed to be for Matty. Also repeating “Should’ve kissed you anyway” multiple times sounds just like “She has a boyfriend anyway.” That, plus the music similarities.


+1. The song is not about a boy in high school, or at least not just about that. Jeff Lang didn’t have a brother, and in the first verse Taylor sings, “Watching the game from your brother’s Jeep.”


I don’t understand why people expect Taylor to take absolutely no liberty with her story telling. I don’t think we hold any other artists to this kind of standard. Have you ever seen any movie based on a true story?

It can be loosely based on events. I don’t why we think every word of the song has to be true. She is capturing a feeling of loss and regret about a high school crush. It’s possible that 50 Cent never played at the prom. Gasp. Heck, it’s possible that she and the Jeff were never even at prom together. She is just telling a story and using elements people will recognize. A high school football game, a musician that was popular during her high school years, a dance that most people associate with high school .

It is quite possible we will find out that Jeff and she in fact did not have second period together. And that’s OK. Maybe it was a friend’s jeep, but it doesn’t sound quite as good in the song. It doesn’t all have to be factually correct, it is art.

I'm consistently amazed at just how literal some of these twits are. It's funny but also pretty sad that they have such a weird and narrow view of everything.

So healthy, mature adults can only think about things you like? That is a wacko sentence. I’m sure you “mistyped” but you should really read that because what you wrote says healthy mature people are only allowed to think and learn about things you like under your definition.

Who are you the king?



DP. The point - that you missed by a mile - is that "healthy, mature adults" don't obsessively research and post about people/things they despise. Instead, they do what they can to avoid hearing about the object of their derision. For example, I skip right past any thread that is about someone I'm not interested in. But not you! You thrive on it. And that is beyond peculiar, to say the least.

That PP made the exact point they wanted to. They don’t want to read anything negative about TS (cognitive dissonance), therefore those of us who do have negative opinions shouldn’t express them. So they try to make fun instead. It’s pretty basic stuff: If you don’t like the information, shoot down and belittle the source. Character assassination is a tactic that has been around a LONG time.

Taylor goes through friends faster than toilet paper.

She wants people to know every intimate detail because she appeared on talk shows daily, shared Instagram posts about her engagement, and has arranged pap walks.

If she wants to hide, she can hide. She chooses not to do that. Plenty of other billionaire celebs can lay low when they want. TS craves the attention and has her PR machine put the stories she wants out there.

I'm not a hater but I don't worship her like you do.

Thank you, fellow normal person!

I've noticed in this thread that people attack anyone with a slightly critical opinion, use the term "actually romantic," or label people a "hater."

This is a tactic that TS has taught them because she blames others for her own issues. Everything is the fault of the patriarchy, Scooter Braun, Katy Perry, Jack Antonoff, Joe Alwyn, Charlie XCX, etc.

Seriously ,I do not know of other artist with so many beefs against other people and with so many "diss tracks" to their name. We have at least one diss track per album. Learn how to deal with humans, Tay Tay.

Not sure why there is a problem with a musician promoting her album. Feel like pretty much every other musician does this? Taylor has not had to do it as much in the past because of who she is, but I don’t find it that abnormal that she’s engaging with fans more during this phase, doing talk shows, etc., when she has a new album coming out. It’s a little weird to criticize her for that.

What a leap to assume that people who question your weird, miserable hobby “worship” her.

I never liked metal music growing up. So you know what I did? I didn’t listen to it. I sure as hell didn’t seek out opportunities to tell people how bad I thought was or how much I disliked the artists (whose names and lyrics I also didn’t know btw). THAT’S normal.

Do you think it makes you sound cool? Do you feel superior? What’s missing from your life that you need this?

Sounds like you not only don’t understand cognitive dissonance, you don’t understand the difference between a critique and criticism.

If you come to a thread like this to criticize the artist in her entirely, you’re not here for honest discussion. And that’s weird.

It's a leap to assume that people who don't like TLOAS are "haters" or "actually romantic" because they do not worship your weird, miserable Taylor Swift hobby.

Of course you’re a hater. Your posts drip with derision about Taylor Swift. Just own it.

As for “worshipping her”? Hardly. I like a lot of her music and know virtually nothing about her personal life - unlike you!

I kind of love it that the new Swiftie badge of honor is to know nothing about her. Progress!!! AND not all the reviews/articles of her were glowing. Gives me hope that maybe free speech will prevail and the power of internet fandom cults may be waning.
