Pop sensation Taylor Swift, who never fails to impress with her music, has time and again reflected beautifully on love, betrayal, friendship, and more. The best part is, she hasn’t done this only through her songs or lyrical prowess. Sometimes, during an interview, sometimes in the middle of her shows, she has shared wise words that bring love, romance, and relationships in a different light, from a clearer angle. Like when she said, “Relationships are like traffic lights. And I just have this theory that I can only exist in a relationship if it’s a green light.”

As reported by E! News, here are a few more quotes by Taylor Swift, which reflect on love and betrayal in the modern age of dating.
