Taylor: You must like me for me.

Swifties: *Were by her side when she had curly hair, sang country, talked about her dreams as if they were huge and almost impossible to reach, got Meredith, became a record-breaking artist, won Grammy’s, got Olivia, changed her hair style, changed her fashion style, moved to New York, changed music genre, changed her hair style again, was put down by everyone around her, was seen as a snake, released another album, broke records again, and we are still here, crazy proud of it* I guess you could say so, yeah.

Soooo, my REP TOUR show is next month on AUGUST 25th here in NASHVILLE. This is my hometown show. Previously, during every other Swift tour, I have attended at least two shows. Due to some personal challenges the past two years, it made the most sense to only attend my hometown show this tour. I am okay with this. I consider myself fortunate and blessed to see the show once, considering there are many big fans unable to attend a tour show at all.

Many of you asked me to make a post about my show. This is it. :)) Thank you to each and every one of you for your beautiful support in my quest to meet Taylor. I may not find time to answer every single one but please know I see them all and take nothing for granted. Thanks for every reblog, like, comment, post, tag, message, tweet, retweet, text, and the like. Thank you in advance should you choose to reblog this post. I am extremely thankful for every one of you.

My husband will be with me at the NASHVILLE show, as he has been to at least one show every tour. He’s also a big Swift fan but does not do social media. We actually met through our mutual shared music interests. That has gone a long ways in being married 22 years and counting. Many of you may remember seeing the old photo I posted here of the hubs with Taylor in 2007. He met her at a Walmart appearance here in the city. I was working that day and thus began my 12 year journey to meet Taylor. There have been way too many near misses along the way, actually too many to count. Honestly, I’m not sure I would have believed the stories if I had not lived them. I look forward some day to sharing them with Taylor if I’m ever lucky enough to meet her.

MY SEAT INFO: SECTION 112, ROW BB, SEAT 13

I often post photos and stories here of the beautiful boy of my heart, Nick, who has autism. I am his nanny. We consider ourselves family and his parents have always referred to me as the “third parent”. We share love, care, and decision-making for this little love who is a rather large light in my life. ☀️☀️ Having no children of our own, Nick and his older brother could not be more like my own children. I would walk out in front of a car for them. I have been with Nick since he was born and he is now 17 years old. I still call him “the little” though he isn’t so little anymore at 6’3”. :)) I say all of this background to state this conclusion: Nick’s sensory issues will not allow him to attend a show of his “TAYLA”. It’s okay, though, because he and I have dance parties and Swift sing alongs daily. We both get so much joy from these shared experiences. I introduced him to Taylor years ago and it is incredibly fun to share this very special bond with him. No bigger Taylor fan exists than Nick, and, his loyalty and dedication are fierce. To this day, he will only allow Swift music to be played in the car. 😘😘

Thanks again for the friendship, love, kindness, and support from this community. I love you guys and I believe we have an amazing group of fans here, many truly good human beings who try hard to help and support each other and pay forward the love of Taylor.

See you AUGUST 25TH, TAYLOR. I would be enchanted to meet you.

taylor during this entire fucking era

[kac5v-blog]

I just want to meet @taylorswift in Nashville on August 25th!

[kac5v-blog]

Long Post Ahead- A Thank You to Taylor <3

So here it goes, this in no way is a sympathy post, nor am I seeking attention from her. If I could meet @taylorswift, I would tell her how much she means to me. I would thank her for getting me out of a rough place. I would thank her for making me smile during all of the times that i thought I couldn’t, giving me a purpose to keep going, for all of the times that I put her music on to calm my anxiety during a panic attack. I would tell her about all of the times she made me happy when I was depressed, and thought I had no reason to be happy. I would thank her for being there for me, when I had nobody, when all of my friends left me during my darkest times. I would thank her for being my friend. For telling me that no matter what people think of you, it doesn’t define you. I needed that; one of the songs that I constantly have on repeat is clean. A song that has so much meaning, to a lot of people, not just me; to me, clean is me saying that I can finally breathe after a year long rain storm. All of my problems are gone, and I can finally move on, and learn to love myself. I just want to hug you and tell you thank you, for just being there, letting me know through your music that you love me no matter what I’m going through. While, she can’t be with me physically, her music videos and funny compilations always help. Taylor has always been a huge part of my life; I don’t want to make her cry, but she basically saved me when I thought I couldn’t save myself. Your music is the reason I strive in life; your happiness and smile, is the reason I’m still smiling. For the first time in months, I can actually smile. Your concert is something for me to look forward to; I bought tickets to your show after years of not being able to afford them, and I couldn’t be more excited to rock out with you, and for once be able to feel like myself and actually loose myself for once. Taylor, I know you get a lot of similar posts, from young girls like me in hopes to get noticed by you just to meet you. For me, it would just mean a lot if you read my post; I’m incredibly thankful for all you have done for me, and I don’t know if there is any other way of saying thank you. Thank You, Taylor you truly are a special human being, and I’m so grateful that I get to call you my role model. Thank you, for everything. I Love You T!!!!! Also 48 days until I can finally see you, and sing along with you. I’m taking my dad with me, who also happens to love you just as much I do, and I can’t wait for us to have fun and forget about our problems for a while. You seem to bring us closer together. In case you wanted to know where I’m at just so you can wave at us, we’ll be at ATL Night 1, SEC 117, Row 13, Seats 19-20. <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

My story 💕

Hey guys! So, this is my story about how I came to absolutely love, adore, admire and look up to Taylor Swift. First off, I will start by introducing myself! My name is KayLeigh and I was born on September 29th, 1998 (same numbers as 1989 but who’s counting?) I have been Swiftie since 2006 when Taylor put out her self-titled album and I heard Teardrops on My Guitar. My mother says that I could sing that song completely and correctly before I could even tie my own shoes. (I have ADHD so things like that took me longer to learn how to do because I could never focus long enough haha) ever since then I have been completely obsessed with Taylor. I love every single song she has ever written. In my eyes, no song she has written is able to even be considered one of her worst songs. She is a lyrical mastermind and I absolutely love that about her. I love the fact that she can take things that a lot of people have experienced, sometimes herself included, and turn them into amazing songs that I know and love! Taylor has helped me through so many things. Whether it be relationship troubles to that first horrible heartbreak to all the ones to come after that to problems with friends to feeling like I don’t fit in to ultimately finding out that I have a rare heart condition. Taylor has been there with me through it all (of course along with my loving family which I love dearly) and always will be and I am so thankful for that. She taught me that” if you’re lucky enough to be different, never change” and man was I different. Well at least that’s how I felt on the inside. If you just look at me without knowing that I have a rare heart condition you would never be able to tell. This sometimes made it harder for me because I knew that I looked normal but I am in no way normal. I felt like an outcast because I was different but I didn’t tell anyone. Not even my mom (sorry mom I love you!) I felt terribly lonely at times and would sit in my room and just blast Taylor Swift songs because I knew that she would make me feel better. And she did almost every time. Bottom line is Taylor Swift helped me deal with what sets me apart and I will never be able to thank her enough for that. EVER. Taylor if you ever get the chance to read this I love you with all my heart and I just want to say thank you for being there for me even though you never knew that you were. Don’t read the last page

But I stay.

@taylorswift thank you so much!

Taylor, look what you made me do… flying from Argentina to Nashville.

I´m Sofia from Argentina and I been a Swiftie since 2008. This year I’m going to make my biggest dream to see Taylor live true, and that’s why I travel with my mom (who loves her too) to Nashville. For me, meeting the person who is my best friend, my role model who never disappointed me means a lot and it´ll made my life forever and always.  

So Taylor, if u want to meet and an Argentine girl who fell in love with u since I first heard your songs, I´ll be in Sect N, Row 1, seats 2-3 enjoying the show and waiting to hug u and tell u the impact you have made and continues on me.

I love u, and I´ll be enchanted to meet u. @taylorswift @taylornation

Thank you, Taylor!!

HEY TAYLOR!

I have been a fan for years and I am so excited about attending the reputation Stadium Tour this August in Toronto! Your music has been the soundtrack to my life, so it is really exciting to get to see you perform the songs that hold so much meaning for me. I am going to be attending the concert with my sister and my mom who are also really big fans of yours.

The first time that I ever saw you perform live was one of the most magical, memorable times of my life. My family and I had tickets to see you at a festival in Ottawa that was actually cancelled by the city. When we were looking into how we would get refunded for our tickets, my mom stumbled across a headline that said you were rumoured to be a special guest at James Taylor’s Tanglewood performance. She immediately convinced my dad how awesome it would be to experience Tanglewood and James Taylor, even if your being there was just a rumour. Well, we got lucky! After driving for hours from Toronto, we lined up at the gates and heard you doing a sound check! I was so over the moon excited!! When you finally came on stage that night to sing Fire and Rain, I was just freaking out with my entire family. My dad twirled us around to Love Story and we were definitely getting lots of side eye from the other people around us. You also sang Ours, which has since become my all-time favourite song of yours. It was such an unforgettable night.

Fast forward to Red Tour, which was my first stadium concert ever. We went crazy with our costumes and signs that were all about our Tanglewood experience and our shared love for James Taylor. The whole night was so much fun and we really enjoyed singing, dancing, and having the best night of our lives. My sister was able to touch your fingertip as you were heading back from the B stage. She still tells anyone who will listen about how you stopped to read our sign and smile. You are so genuine and kind, which just makes being a Swiftie even more wonderful.

When the album for 1989 was released, I couldn’t believe that you had created such a unique and completely different sound for yourself. I was in love with the whole era and it is definitely one that has so many relatable songs that just speak to me. The costumes that we made for this tour were foxes and we saw you in the pit for both Montréal and Toronto. Montréal was so fantastic because we made some great friends waiting in line to get in. Kevin from Taylor Nation also came by and chatted with us. He even took our picture for the website, which was really cool. I was so amazed at how close we were to you that it just felt like such a surreal experience. It honestly felt like you were smiling and pointing at us both nights. I have heard quite a few people say the same thing and I find it amazing that anyone can feel a connection with you in a crowd of thousands of people! You have such a gift.

I am going to be at both shows in Toronto for the reputation Stadium Tour! The first night I will be in the Right Snake Pit. For the second night, we will be in Section A9, Row 27, Seats 4,5,& 6. Our costumes are rep Firefighters because we have your back, Taylor. Those flames are a thing of the past and we are ready to dance all night long with you! Hopefully, someday I will get the opportunity to thank you in person!

Nashville Swifites

Hey guys!! I’m trying to find all the Nashville swifties for August 25.. would you help me search the out. August 25 at Nissan Stadium. Who’s going to be there?

[kac5v-blog]

Heyyyy @taylorswift ♥️

I just wanted to just send you a quick note and just let you know because i don’t know if i tell you enough how grateful i am for you.

I’m not too sure if you have seen… but you probably have considering i have been a bit of a mess lately, but yeah things haven’t been the greatest lately and that’s okay because it’s just a process and i will be stronger one day, hopefully one day soon…

Not too long ago i was ready to just walk away from everything i had almost given up and that scared me so much because that is not like me at all, you are my constant reminder to keep moving forward and to keeping shining even when the world around us is dark. I saw you live through real life hell, and i saw the pain in your eyes, and that pain is what i am feeling right now… but, now i see you, i see what you have come through, what battles you fought and how you knocked down every single wall they built up around you.

That to me is so inspiring and is keeping me focused to one day know that I’m going to get to where you are.

Two weeks ago i had literally a break down at work, you would get it, the media industry is really hard, like really hard. If you don’t find have time to have to yourself you literally lose yourself and it all comes crashing down, and that is exactly what happened to me.

My work put me on stress leave and that’s what i am currently on, i haven’t had a break from work since i was in Texas when i saw you perform in Austin and i didn’t realise how much i was pushing aside to just get through everyday.

My day to day life is a constant trigger for me as it reminds of a lot of things I’ve told you about in the past but mainly because the guy who sexually assaulted me is around sometimes , i know that my dreams are far more important than letting him win, or have control over me more than he already does, so i push through and some days are really hard.

I have started seeing a therapist who is so amazing and has changed so much already, it is also really hard because there’s so much that you don’t realise you ignored and then suddenly it’s all been brought back up and you’re facing it every single day.

I feel so emotionally heavy, like i am wearing every single piece of emotion and hard times on my shoulders, but i know one day the weight will be lifted. I am finally on my way to getting myself back, it will take time, and it is going to be hard, there will be good days and there will be bad days and i know that by the time i see you on tour in Nashville it will be like big celebration.

I can’t wait to genuinely feel happiness again and let go of the past and everything that has been holding me back.

It has been so tough but you have been there for me always.

You check on me on here and make each day easier to breathe.

we promised that we would stand by each other’s sides forever and we both kept our promises.

You overcoming everything in the past that you felt like knocked you down is the reason i stand up every single time over and over and i will never be able to thank you enough for that.

Thank you for reminding me of my worth and reminding me why life can still be beautiful even when you’re stuck in a storm.

Love you so much.

See you soon.

Just a reminder that even though people are hurt by the inconsistencies of ‘the rule’ - Taylor is genuinely trying her very very very best to meet everyone she can and we have to remember how lucky we are that this is even an opportunity we have at all and that Taylor would never intentionally hurt any of us. She loves us and wants to meet us!

[kac5v-blog]

TO TAYLOR, FROM US

I want to start by saying everyone is extremely grateful for everything you do for us. You don’t have to do any of it but you do anyway and we’re all endlessly appreciative. This genuinely isn’t coming from a place of selfishness or ungratefulness. After seeing multiple people, my friends and even people I don’t know, being hurt repeatedly I talked to a lot of people to try to understand everyones thoughts, emotions, and suggestions and it would mean the world to us if you could take the time to read this.

There have been multiple times over the past few years where people have been offered for the amazing opportunity to meet you but then turned away because they already have, and then in the same night others were aloud to meet you again. There have been way too many exceptions and inconsistencies. We know that the rule was created so you can meet as many of us as possible and we LOVE you for that. No one else does that and we know how lucky we are, we are so grateful. We also know it was created to try to prevent people from receiving hate. But as someone who has been online watching all of this and hearing many peoples perspectives of this rule, I feel confident in saying that the rule is doing more harm than good. When upset, people are lashing out attacking Taylor Nation and that is NOT the way to go with anyone ever. Most of the time when people meet you again and receive hate it’s because they were an exception to this rule.

It’s not even the fact that there is a rule, it’s how inconsistent it is. People who met you in may are allowed to meet you again but someone who met you seven years ago are turned away. People are separated from their friends. Or if one person in a group has met you before but the rest haven’t, the entire group gets turned away and everyone is left feeling so low. When some are made the exception to the rule and others are rejected in the same breath it makes people feel insignificant and like they’re not important.

One suggestion I’ve seen a lot of people talk about is instead of getting rid of the rule completely, maybe make it to where they can only meet you once an era or once every two-three years. That way it’s spread out without breaking peoples hearts. You know we all love you, Taylor and love growing up with you and we’d love to be able to update you as life goes on.

We understand you can’t make everyone happy and we all appreciate how hard you and TN work for us. Again, please understand this is not coming from a place of selfishness or ungratefulness. We are ALL so thankful for everything you do for us, we just want people to stop getting hurt and to stop reacting poorly and lashing out on you and your team.

I’ve been a swiftie for a long time. Taylor’s music like speaks to my soul. I was 14 maybe 15 when Tim McGraw was released and my best friend, who is a red head named Deonna and is pictured above in the little black dress standing outside the fearless tour bus. Well she wasn’t a big fan, but still tells the story of how I made her listen to her first album over and over again. When we graduated HS, she went off to college and decided to come home one weekend and surprise me with fearless tickets. I was going through a rough time because I wasn’t able to afford going to a university so I ended up at a community college. She knew I was upset so not only did we get tickets, we got to in the pit. I’ve never experienced anything like it. Unfortunately, Deonna won’t be going to the concert for the rep tour in Nashville because she was a in a horrible car accident around the time the tickets went on sale and I didn’t know if she was going to be able to go. We didn’t even know if she was going to make it but luckily she did. She’s doing much better now but I didn’t get her a ticket and feel so bad. Oh well… but anyways I just thought I’d share a story with you guys. I just wanted @taylorswift and @taylornation know that I think my invites to the secret sessions in Nashville were lost.. it’s okay though, sh*t happens. Just wanted to let you know I’ll be at the Nissan stadium August 25th!!! And can’t wait. Hopefully fate could step in and make one old swiftie happy!
