There must be un ungodly amount of pressure to be in any kind of relationship with Taylor Swift. I sort of feel sorry for her because it must be hard to find people who can tolerate that, even just as a casual friend. You can see why she might have cooked up a romance with an NFL star.

You will not escape her shadow; we do not recommend you try.

I’m sure he would prefer not to be remembered as Taylor Swift’s most generic boyfriend, just like William Howard Taft would have preferred not to be remembered for the White House bathtub thing. But such is life
