Tears From Both Sides

couple breaking up 17[Blind Gossip] There are conflicting reports about this famous young couple’s breakup. Some say there was no drama. Some say there was lots of drama. Want to know what really happened?

She loved him and he loved her… just not as much.

After they were dating for six or seven months, she asked where the relationship was going. Were they moving towards a serious commitment? Not nagging. Just asking.

He assured her that he loved her. Then he mentioned the P word.

He told her that if he was going to propose that he didn’t want to spoil the surprise. He told her that she just needed to relax and let it happen. So he didn’t actually say that he was definitely planning to propose, but he definitely did lead her to believe that it was going to happen.

At first, she was giddy at the prospect.

It could be right around the corner. If they were going on a date, or going away for the weekend, she believed that it might happen then. Maybe over the holidays or on their one-year anniversary or at the thirteen month mark.

What she didn’t know was that he actually had no intention of proposing. None.

In fact, those conversations about commitment seemed to have spooked him. Instead of spending more time with her, and behaving more committed and loving, he pulled away and started engaging in some activities that defy the very definition of committed.

When she found out, she was shocked. She had been loyal to him. She had never embarrassed him. He not only showed disloyalty… he embarrassed her. Those are both HUGE no nos to her.

While they didn’t break up, the relationship went from happy and hopeful to distrustful and disconnected. They started fighting a lot. This went on for several months. Then, during a recent fight, he finally admitted something.

He finally admitted that he actually had not been planning to propose… but that if they just kept dating for another year or two, it might eventually happen.

That was it. The relationship fell apart after that. There were tears from both sides.

While it would be much more interesting to tell you some dramatic story about how she caught him in bed with her her brother and her best friend and clocked him upside the head with a Grammy Award… nothing that dramatic happened.

It really was just two people – one of whom wasn’t quite as honest and loyal and committed and non-embarrassing as he could have been – breaking up over the course of a few months.

    Obviously Taylor Swift. So was this her first authentic, non-PR relationship? I didn’t think she was capable of those! Prepare to be trashed in her next album, Calvin.

    • thisisannoying says

      To get giddy over a potential proposal a few months in is a little silly, but asking where they’re headed so they can cut things short if they’re not on the same page is not!

      Also my cousin just got married after a year, so things this that do happen. Sad. Their music is so different, I don’t know about his personality but I wondered how they meshed in terms of interests.

    • Squeezes99 says

      Agreed. Poor Taylor. It’s nearly impossible for independent, strong, successful women to find a good man.

    • JennyJustice says

      Squeezes and Canary sound like PR reps trolling the sites for Tay Tay nay-sayers.

      A strong woman doesn’t go from man to man like they can’t ever be alone. And success isn’t money or fame. Happiness is and we have yet to see Taylor happy on her own for any length of time. She is talented and popular, but she is also immature, stuck on herself, and constantly seeks attention/needs to be the center of attention. That would get old with any “good man.”

    • boyzmom says

      Lol JennyJustice. I thought the same thing…was going to call out CanaryCry myself. Maybe it’s one of Taylor’s posse.

    • luvprue1 says

      Her: Tyler Swift
      Him: Calvin Harris

      Optional: Is she better off without him. Yes.

  5. cheezhead says

    Taylor swift
    Calvin Harris I think that’s his name. Doesn’t matter now. Oh wait, is that another crappy breakup song I hear?

    • CanaryCry says

      Even Madonna made bank on heartbreak songs … along with other country artists.

    • terriusss says

      Yeah but they didn’t make a career off of trashing their (famous) ex-partners.

  9. erininla35 says

    Taylor and Calvin. I knew the relationship was dunzo when he was photographed walking out of a “massage” parlor.

  10. spikelb says

    Taylor Swift
    Calvin Harris

    Just more material for her next album full of songs about how he done her wrong and how he promised and never followed through, blah blah blah.

    • terriusss says

      Haha I thought the same. Although I’m not sure how she’s gonna make sell it since no one really cares about Calvin Harris. Usually people loved those songs because they felt like they got an insight on their fave’s private lives…

  16. twinklefairy12 says

    Her: Taylor Swift
    Him: Calvin Harris

    Eh they seemed cute / good for each other. Expecting a proposal after only a year of dating is kinda rushing it. Tut tut, Taylor.

  17. MaryQuiteContrary says

    Her: Taylor Swift

    Him: Calvin Harris

    [Optional] Is she better off without him? – Yes

    Taylor and Calvin

    I am more interested about what happened with her previous relationships

  19. sassygurl1987 says

    Oh, Adam, Adam, Adam…you’re so afraid of commitment.
    Tay-tay, I hope you find someone who’ll take you seriously.
    Good luck to you both!

  20. arvi1991 says

    Taylor and Calvin. Yet another disingenuous, commitment-phobic man who had no public profile until he started dating her. Of course, she’s better off without him.

    • amanda84 says

      I’m assuming you’re American, because everyone outside of America knew who he was. He’s massive at what he does. I’d never heard of Taylor Swift until Kanye West stole her moment. Should I give him credit for her being so famous? Or should I just write it up to me not being interested in the genre of music she was famous for at that time? I suppose you’ve never heard Rihanna’s ‘We found Love’? Only it’s not actually Rihanna’s. It’s all written and produced by Calvin Harris. If you…

    • thekatsclaws says

      I agree Amanda, he certainly didn’t need any exposure from dating Taylor, he is hugely known internationally and has been for years. Top stars clamber over themselves to work with him. He has always kept a low profile, there is only a few shots of them together, so he kept to his usual MO of trying to keep below the radar. If this is true though, he *, she never asked about marriage, only commitment, so there was no need for him to bring the P word up at all.

    • Lebowski says

      you sound a little angry that some people might not know who the dude was before this relationship and exposure (me included.)

    • ivyleaguer says

      yes we know who Calvin Harris is. In my opinion he’s far more famous than Taylor in America at least in the club scene. And he does very well on the billboard charts as well and pop radio. Not sure what amanda84 is going on about.

  21. flemiel says

    Taylor Swift and Calvin Harris

    She’s so much better off not being led on anymore!

    I know the feeling hoping your SO will propose anytime now so I can’t even imagine him not even planning on it and knowing that the whole time.

  22. impishly says

    i think taylor is a bit physco. this was her longest relationship, but the others before only lasted 3 months tops. She seems like she has a huge ego. No man wants to be Mr. Taylor Swift and be around vapid 20 year old models. I knew when they had a “fan” join them for dinner something was off. Who does that? Nobody famous would.

    • tellmemore says

      Well somebody famous apparently did. Whether you like her or not, you can’t say she’s not famous.

  26. twistedme says

    Her: Taylor

    Him: Calvin Harris

    [Optional] Is she better off without him? Well, she can craft a new album full of breakup songs which goes on to win a trillion Grammies – so career-wise she will be better off without him. 🙂

  27. lipgloss23 says

    Her: Taylor Swift
    Him: Calvin Harris

    Clues: That the talks ‘spooked’ him. Taylor has a song called Haunted. Also, expecting a proposal on the 13th month. 13 is her lucky number.

    Optional: If he led her on, then yes, she is better without. There was no need for him to say that he was going to propose if he wasn’t intending to. He could have just been honest and said that he could see how things went as time went.

    For once, this seemed like a genuine relationship for Taylor, quite…

  30. draconius25 says

    Taylor Swift
    Calvin Harris
    It was a P.R. relationship. They were so phony it made my teeth hurt.
    No tears from either side.

  31. Laughing1 says

    Wait. If this is talking about Taylor Swift and Calvin Harris, I thought he was her beard???

  34. Anais07 says

    Her: T. Swift

    Him: C. Harris

    [Optional] Is she better off without him? She’s young. She has time.

  36. Iwonder says

    Taylor Swift and Calvin Harris

    Yep, someone who treats you like that is a huge red flag

  41. PinkCrayon says

    Taylor Swift
    Calvin Harris

    Yes. Probably. She should date regular guys. He might come back and commit though.

  42. PriveNom says

    Taylor Swift
    Calvin Harris
    obvi
    Oh, so that’s what happened….

    Yes, she’s much better off without wasting her time & energy on someone who just settled for her.

  43. Mel2351 says

    Taylor Swift and Calvin Harris

    I’m guessing the embarrassing incident was him leaving a rub and tug

    Also the clue of “thirteenth month mark” as we all know t swifts favourite number is 13

  46. bostonbratt says

    Her = Taylor Swift

    Him= Calvin Harris

    I thought Taylor is gay? I thought this was a bearding relationship. Weren’t there items posted here, a couple of yrs ago ( or so) alluding to her having a down low relationship with Gomez?
    She will be fine because I still feel she is a Lesbian anyway .

  49. scootypuffjr says

    Swifty and Calvin Harris. God, not only does CH look like my ex, he now acts like him as well. Ugh.

    Yes, she’s better off. She seems like a needy gal, and she needs to chill on that. However, your partner has got to be cool with that off the bat or things won’t last. Case and point.

  50. terry123 says

    I am a lil confused…
    I thought the whole Swift/Harris alliance was a carefully orchestrated business arrangement for marketing/publicity?

  53. TheRevanchist says

    Calvin Harris
    Taylor Swift
    Optional: Everyone is better off without a bearding contract hanging over their heads. And regardless of the bias in favor of TS, he actually looks like the reasonable, mature one here.

  54. KBearr says

    Her: Taylor Swift

    Him: Calvin Harris

    Yes. She needs to find someone who will love her as much as she loves him.

  56. ShinKi11 says

    T. Swift and Calvin Harris

    I mean, she’s probably in the studio right know recording an entire album and milking the whole breakup as I type, so yeah, she’s probably better off without him.

  57. Summers says

    Taylor Swift and Calvin Harris

    I’m glad it was nothing dramatic, but yes if they wanted different things out of the relationship and were not at the same level of commitment then they are better off apart.

  58. hotel57 says

    Oh Tay. One day you’ll find the one. Until then, keep pumping out break up songs and making bank. Might as well.

    • theveronicas says

      Please read the exact words posted by BG:

      “After they were dating for six or seven months, SHE ASKED WHERE THE RELATIONSHIP WAS GOING (which is fine, this is normal). Were they moving towards a serious commitment? NOT NAGGING. JUST ASKING.”

      He assured her that he loved her. THEN HE MENTIONED THE P WORD

      Calvin brought up the idea of a proposal, HE put her hopes up. Not her. She merely asked, HE mentioned a proposal.

      Poor Taylor, she can never catch a break

  61. Seahawks12 says

    This is so easy I’m typing this with both hands tied behind my back! Swiftly & Calvin! (That doesn’t mean I believe a word of it. I don’t believe there was a romance. Not saying there was a “contract” but more like a “mutual agreement”.)

  62. jenjene73 says

    Taylor Swift and Calvin Harris

    At a minimum, I’m sure she’ll get a few good songs out of it.

  63. WillowPotter says

    Taylor Swift

    Calvin Harris

    If he wasn’t unfaithful then yes, also, she has the right to value herself and want a future for herself, but asking a guy for a marriage proposal after six or seven months of dating is ridiculous to me, it’s too early. I thought they were cute together, she may need to evaluate why guys are as always leaving her.

  65. NativeAtlantaGirl says

    Swifty and Calvin

    Wrong to lead someone on when you KNOW you want different things – especially when you know she is gonna craft some epic songs based on the relationship.

    Not a fan of her music, squad etc but I imagine she has to be a bit intimidating to guys her age – her independence, success, drive… maybe she needs a break and a more established mature dude who knows what he wants

    • terriusss says

      he was probably afraid of being straight up with her because he knew she’s going to trash him in public if he breaks up with her lol

  66. tyshkers says

    Taylor Swift and Calvin Harris

    Who knows? She’ll make millions off a new album based on it for sure…lol

  67. haley1020 says

    taylor swift and calvin harris even though the relationship was fake as tay’s implants lol

  72. celebiddy says

    Taylor and calvin

    Too bad, i thought they made a great match. I don’t know them so i can’t say whether or not either one is better off, but i’m sure taylor will have plenty of other guys eager to date her. I do think the reason it ended is pretty silly though. No matter how great 1 year is, it’s not enough time to really decide if you want to spend your life with someone imo. My boyfriend and i have been together 7 years, livingg together for 5, and even have a baby together. We make a…

  74. MsOverstreet says

    Her: Taylor Swift
    Him: Calvin Harris
    [Optional] Is she better off without him? Girl, you’re young, and it was only a year. You don’t need to be expecting an engagement in a year, and there’s no problem if he was thinking “another year or two”. If he was lying and being disloyal, then yea sure get rid of him. But please, just because you’ve been happy a few months doesn’t mean you need to get married!

    • carnivoro says

      I change this to

      Katy Perry
      Orlando Bloom

      Katy has the worst luck, I would have left after Selena Gomez humiliated me

  76. kimbers says

    Taylor and harris

    She’s better w/o him bc he seems like he wants a friend with benefits and not a partner in crime

  77. ljqinlondon says

    Tay and Calvin. Sounds like a story her people would spin to portray her as a victim

  79. deathsoul74 says

    This is so easy to guess.

    Her: Taylor Swift
    Him: Calvin Harris

    Is she better off without him? Maybe but I think she should stay single for at least three years.

  83. CyndiTx123 says

    Poor Taylor Swift and Calvin Harris…

    He just wasn’t ready for marriage as she was….they seemed liked a good couple. Probably better off since they are on different wavelengths of relationships..

  86. justme04 says

    Taylor Swift and Calvin Harris.

    I can’t be one of those people who say “Oh, She is still young and her career is hot right now she doesn’t need a man or marriage or babies etc…” because I got married at 23 and had babies and I just knew I was ready for that stage in my life and was with the right person. Yes her career is on top right now, but I can imagine that can get a little lonely. Taylor will get there, you definitely can’t force someone to want the same things you do.

  90. kit e kat says

    This MIGHT have been Tyga and Kylie, but then there’s the bit of the Grammy award.

    That means it’s none other than Tay Tay and Calvin. I always thought it was yet another double beard scenario, though.

    Though it COULD be Gigi and Zyan…as in when when pigs fly (a fauxmance if ever there was one!).

    Is she better off? As Billy the Shake said, to thine own self be true….

  91. annabelle77 says

    Taylor Swift and Calvin Harris. And yes, of course she is better off without him. He’s a coward and a cheat.

  93. MochaDelight says

    Her: Taylor Swift

    Him: Calvin Harris

    Is she better off without him? Yes. If hes not willing to make a long term commitment and got scared off that easily over the prospect, and she wants more, then yes.

  94. Moonpie says

    Taylor and Calvin Harris. She should ban the P and M word from her vocabulary. Never going to happen.

  95. thelasthigh says

    she was pushing after 6 months?! no surprise! Perfect way to spook a guy. Wanting to date 2 or 3 years before a proposal is completely normal.

    insane Taylor Swift, who will milk this for every bit of publicity possible. as usual
    Calvin DJ guy

  96. GirlPlease says

    At first I thought this might be Gigi and Zayn, but he doesn’t even pretend to like her, let alone LOVE her.
    But after thinking about it a bit, this is definitely Calvin Harris and Taylor Swift.
