If there’s one thing Taylor Swift loves, it’s love. The star has spent what seems like her whole life looking for it and writing about it in her songs, which has allowed her to dish out some of the very best dating advice in her music. But her pursuit to find The One has come a few dead ends — and that means a few exes ready and waiting to speak out about what it’s really like to date her. Swift probably put it best herself though when she told Seventeen back in 2015, “In fairy tales the bad guy is very easy to spot. The bad guy is always wearing a black cape so you always know who he is. Then you grow up and you realize that Prince Charming is not as easy to find as you thought.” She added, “You realize the bad guy is not wearing a black cape and he’s not easy to spot; he’s really funny, and he makes you laugh, and he has perfect hair.”

Joe Jonas and Taylor Swift made one iconic teen power couple in 2008 when word spread that they were dating. But, sadly for those obsessed with this romance (i.e. us) things didn’t last too long. They were together from around July 2008 to around November 2008, which is when Swift famously put Jonas on blast during an appearance on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show.” In the interview, Swift shared she hadn’t spoken to Jonas since their breakup and accused him of calling things off during a 25-second phone call.

But the Jonas Brother wasn’t about to take that lying down. “For those who have expressed concern over the ’27 second’ phone call, I called to discuss feelings with the other person. Those feelings were obviously not well received. I did not end the conversation. Someone else did,” he wrote in a MySpace (how of the time!) post (via People). “Phone calls can only last as long as the person on the other end of the line is willing to talk,” he added.
But while it seemed like things may have been a little sour at the time, just over a decade later, Jonas clarified during an appearance on “Lorraine” alongside his brothers that things were all good between himself and his ex. “I’ve moved on. I’m sure Taylor’s moved on. We’re all friends. It’s all good,” he shared.

It seems Taylor Swift and Stephen Barker Liles got close during her 2008 tour. So close that Swift wrote a song for him — and he wrote one back! The Love & Theft singer opened up about their relationship to Taste of Country in 2011, explaining, “Me and Taylor really hit it off and became really close when we were on tour together. We had a real emotional relationship. We talked on the phone a lot. She was really cool.” He also spoke about how Swift wrote the song “Hey, Stephen” from her “Fearless” album about him. The track features some very lustful lyrics, including, “‘Cause I can’t help it if you look like an angel/Can’t help it if I wanna kiss you in the rain, so.” Flirty!

Barker Liles went on to gush more about the singer, revealing he actually wrote a song about her too. But even though these two didn’t go the distance, he still had nothing but nice things to say. “She’s awesome. I really dig Taylor,” he said. “As far as I know, none of the other dudes she’s been hanging out with have written a song about her!”
Barker Liles later spoke about their relationship again in 2023 during an appearance on “The Bobby Bones Show” podcast. He again opened up about being the inspiration for “Hey, Stephen” and added of his past relationship with
