I remember having one of my many ‘therapy sessions’ with Taylor about wanting to fall in love and how I didn’t think there were very many guys that would be compatible with me.
She responded with ‘you don’t need to find 1 million guys that are right for you, you just need to find one person who makes you the happiest person in the world.’
I’m so glad she’s found her person. No one deserves it more. Congrats on your happily ever after in the music that it will inspire. 💕”
