Here’s the scoop on number 10: Travis can handle pressure. He’s not just a three-time Super Bowl player with two wins under his belt (no biggie!). He’s also been the host of Saturday Night Live. The guy knows how to stay cool under the glare of a spotlight.
Now, you might think, “So what?” But consider this. Taylor Swift has written a bunch of songs about her fear. She’s scared that her fame might be too much for her boyfriend to handle. Take a listen to “Peace” and “The Archer” if you need proof.
Taylor once said, “It all depends who you’re with.” If her partner can’t handle her fame, she feels like she’s on the run. She doesn’t want to feel like she’s hiding from the law. She doesn’t want to feel like a fugitive just because she’s in a relationship. She wants normalcy.
In a chat with the Wall Street Journal, Travis showed he’s up for the challenge. He’s ready to handle the pressure that comes with dating a powerhouse like Taylor. He admitted, “Obviously I’ve never dated anyone with that kind of aura about them…I’ve never dealt with it.” But he’s not scared. He’s not running away.
Travis gets it. He understands the scrutiny Taylor faces every day. The paparazzi are always there, outside her house, at every restaurant she visits, every time she steps off a plane. And yet, she’s just living her life, enjoying herself. Travis knows he can’t be the one acting weird when she’s so chill.
