CRUSHES

It's no secret that Taylor Swift is incredibly talented at turning her love and heartbreak experiences into relatable music her fans know and love. Over the course of her professional singing career, Taylor has covered almost every situation and feeling when it comes to love and heartbreak, making it feel like no one understands our feels better than her.

Here are five times Taylor perfectly articulated what it feels like to be a young girl in young love.

1. When you first get into a relationship and everything seems perfect

"You are the best thing that's ever been mine." -Mine, 2010

At the beginning of a new relationship, things can seem so perfect and blissfully simple. This quote captures the innocence of when those first steps of love when everything seems too good to be true.

2. When you find yourself falling for the oh-so-wrong guy

“My mind forgets to remind me you’re a bad idea.” -Sparks Fly, 2010

Sometimes, no matter how rational our thinking, we can't stop thinking about someone we know we couldn't/shouldn't be with. Taylor reminds us that we aren't alone in wanting the unattainable.

3. When you just can't seem to figure out how you feel or find yourself suddenly wanting something *else*

“People are people and sometimes we change our minds.” -Breathe, 2008

It's OK for your feelings to change. It's OK to not want the same thing as everyone else. It's OK to be you.

4. When you know it's over but you just can't seem to move on

“Something keeps me holding onto nothing.” -Haunted, 2010

“I should just tell you to leave 'cause I know exactly where it leads but I watch us go 'round and 'round each time…” -Style, 2014

Change is hard, especially when you've grown so comfortable with another person. T knows that, ahem, "All Too Well."

5. When you just want to give up on love and get a cat

“I've been spending the last eight months thinking all love ever does is break and burn and end…”  -Begin Again, 2012

Raise your hand if you've ever been in Taylor's shoes! *Raises hand*

No matter what your relationship status, there is almost always a Taylor Swift song to cover it. What's your favorite T-Swift anthem?
