Taylor Swift is engaged and happy. The Love Story singer finally had her moment and shared the good news with her fans. However, amid that, Joe Alwyn has been going viral for his relationship with Taylor and how it ended. While there haven’t been any confirmed reasons why Taylor and Joe broke up after seven years together, Taylor’s albums have provided enough details to go off of. And now, they are reflecting on how she tried to make herself ‘smaller’ for the British actor.
The internet recalls how Taylor Swift tried to make herself smaller for Joe Alwyn
Taylor Swift was extremely private during her six-year relationship with Joe Alwyn, a stark contrast to her relationship with Travis. This was the first thing fans noticed when the All Too Well singer started dating the NFL player. They felt like the singer was finally free from the chains of having to hide. And now an old post from Taylor’s date with Joe is making rounds on the internet, and fans are having a field day about it.
The X post featured Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn on a date in London. While she looked absolutely ravishing, fans noticed her posture and physique and started a heated discussion. A user started the conversation by stating how Taylor had tried to make her smaller, both figuratively and literally, for Joe. They stated:
“The way she tried to make herself smaller literally and figuratively besides this disgustingly pathetic mediocre piece of stale bread.”
Soon after, other fans joined and began sharing their views on the same topic. A user wrote, “And I thought she was happy like this. I should’ve known, I should’ve knooowwn.” Another penned, “She’s a self-made billionaire who knows how to remain submissive, humble and is willing to give love a chance always…I don’t know about you. It seems you wanted this relationship to work out so bad that when it ended, it almost felt like a personal breakup for you.”

A comment read, “Sometimes I wish we all had the gift of foresight to see what’s coming, cause if only she knew how happy she would be 7 years on lol.” A commenter said, “You can almost feel her discomfort through the body language, head down and shoulders tight.” A user penned, “It’s sad seeing how often women adjust themselves to take up less space around men.”
