When it comes to relationships, even
Taylor will admit... she's not that
Swift.
"I was filled with advice! I'd tell my friends things like, 'Don't accept that apology! That isn't sincere!" Or He hung out with his ex-girlfriend? Get rid of him," the pop star
told Allure magazine (she's on the December cover).
"But love is never that simple. Now I'm finally getting the idea it's the one thing I don't need to have a strategy for. I can only write the material I know, which is what happens to me."
Maybe that's where she's going wrong? One thing we do know about guys: They probably don't like it when you write songs about how jerky they are.
It does make for good chart-toppers, though!
