Taylor Swift Needs To Stop Exploiting Her Exes

Everyone loves a good Taylor Swift song. And let's be honest, we've probably cried to them at least once in our lifetime. But did you ever stop to consider what the songs were really about?

Each and every album is made off of a heartbreak that she endured at the hands of a famous person. All of her songs are about how she thought she was in love, but the guy had other plans and left her to pick up the pieces. It's the same in every song and every album, and it's starting to get old.

In a recent interview with Ellen, Taylor Swift yet again exploited one of her past relationships. She talked about wanting to find true love, and it "wouldn't be by a man who ended their relationship in a 25-second phone call."

It seems like Taylor Swift is never in the wrong, and we never get the other point of view of what happened. She has talked about this relationship many times, and even relationships that didn't happen but she longed for them to like in the song "Dear John."

Having been a fan of Swift for years, there comes a certain time when the antics get old. We all have relationships, good and bad, but not a lot of people are out there talking about the ending of their relationships.

It seems that she dates guys for their notoriety and to then write about them after it's all over. For example, Harry Styles. She dated him for a few short months and when her next album came out, people were jumping over themselves to figure out what songs she had written about him.

She even went so far to make fun of him at the VMA's as she impersonated a British accent during her song "We Are Never Getting Back Together." It's stunts like these that make me tired of her.

Taylor Swift is obviously a good performer and singer. However, she needs to start taking her inspiration from elsewhere. She can't keep dating people to only use them for inspiration later or to use her breakups as a way of a nice check.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
