Taylor Swift has reached out to a heartbroken fan with relationship advice
One fan reached out to the singer for advice on Tumblr after her boyfriend broke off their relationship by text message.
She wrote: “I hope you see this, but we’ve been together for 4 months, he just texted me and told me he was done with me. Gave me no reason and kept trying to get me to do irrational things to get him back. Now he’s calling me names and I just feel crumbled. I don’t know what to do.”
The singer, who has written songs about her own break-ups, reached out to the heartbroken fan asking, “He just ended it, just like that?” before offering a list of advice.
“Oh my God, I know. It’s so devastating to come to terms with speaking of someone in the past tense when you used to see them as your present and your future. But think about what he said. It will take a while for you to get those words out of your head.”
“Heartbreak is awful enough. The fact that you have to endure this kind of emotional abuse is so wrong. I know it’s hard, but I think it’s time to utilize the ‘block’ feature on your phone. This is just damaging. Do you have to see him around?
“So don’t give him the chance to say more damaging things. There is nothing wrong with avoiding people who hurt you. You fell in love, no games. Now you’re saying goodbye with no games. Protect yourself, please. I’m so sorry this happened.”
To make sure that the fan didn’t get too hung up over the break-up, Swift created a playlist featuring Charli XCX to help her to move on.
