folklore is lowkey not in my top 5 anymore. Not because I don't like it but because I'd rather listen to evermore instead. It's about on the same level as Fearless and Midnights and definitely below evermore, Speak Now and Red

 

I legitimately question the taste of anyone who doesn't at least have folklore in their top 5

Okay so the general understanding is that they had their first "breakup" or at least their first big relationship-threatening fight some time during the Rep Tour (the inspiration for Afterglow), but she basically bent over backwards to apologize and keep him with her (which he took advantage of several times after that point) and then it was Covid so obviously everything kinda stopped. There were also cheating rumors swirling around in 2019 but I don't think she believed them (and nor did the fans), but in hindsight they were probably true. Once the world started moving again and Taylor realized she kinda wanted to do the whole 'famous singer' thing again (aka the preparations for the Red TV release going back to like May 2021) apparently Jobless wasn't... into the idea, and they had several big fights over the course of the year. I'm not sure if any of them resulted in a breakup, but this is where the inspiration for Renegade probably comes from. Then of course they had a pretty nasty spat at the end of September, after which Taylor stayed in the US to prepare for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame performance and was working on Speak Now TV while Joe was finishing filming of Conversations With Friends in Belfast before going to London for a month (where he cheated for sure), and then he went to Panama for Stars at Noon. Taylor, probably hearing things from Jack who heard from Margaret that Joe was bitching about the state of their relationship, went down to visit to patch things up, but it didn't seem to be great for them, because immediately after she came back she made Midnights (it's assumed that the vault excl. TGW and Dear Reader was probably made before this), and then Joe confesses to cheating in early December, when she writes YLM and then HD. Then they get together again in Tahiti and stay together at least through the VMAs in 2022 (they had dinner with Lena like two nights before, iirc), but then they had another issue right after that (there were tabloids writing about 'trouble in paradise', which in hindsight seems to have been Tree planting seeds for a more permanent breakup, but it didn't manifest, and Taylor ended up getting back together with him before going to New Orleans with him that December. However, it seems like there was another big fight there (remember she spent her birthday with Jack in the studio), and from that point through the beginning of April 2023 it was conscious uncoupling. 

Thus, the breakups/near breakups we know of were: Q3 2018, May 2021, Oct-Dec 2021, Sept 2022, and Dec 2022-April 2023. I'm probably missing some, if anyone is really active on this side of Tumblr, please let me know :deadbanana4:

 

There are a few unknowns that might've also been bad, such as whatever inspired hoax and tolerate it, which were drawn to some degree (but not exclusively) from her relationship with him

He kept getting those roles because Taylor was working her industry contacts to get him roles to assuage his deep insecurities about not being a very good or accomplished actor. I think he's just kinda douche-y/reclusive on set, and there probably was some envy of him getting his roles through networking rather than talent and merit.

If I'm not mistaken, no one of her exes ever cheated on her. If Joe did so, he's over. This album is gonna COOCK him anyway though :ryan3:
