No. 10: Can handle pressure
Not only has Travis played in four Super Bowls, winning three of them (NOTHING!), but he has also hosted one. Saturday Night Liveso you know he can handle an intense spotlight with ease.
It may seem trivial, but Taylor has written several songs expressing her fear that her level of fame might prove too much for her partner (see: “Peace” and “The Archer”).
“It all depends on who you're with,” Taylor said in a statement. “If they have a serious problem with it, I guess you'll hide or whatever, but I don't really like that, because it makes me feel like I'm running from the law or something. I don't want to feel like a fugitive, like, 'Oh my God, we're having a relationship, you better hide!'”
“I feel like if you could be in a relationship and have it seem normal, that would be good.”
And in his WSJ newspaper Interview, Travis proved that he's more than prepared for the pressure that comes with dating someone as powerful as Taylor.
“Obviously, I've never dated anyone who had that kind of aura… I've never had to deal with that,” she said. “But at the same time, I'm not running away from any of that.”
“The scrutiny she gets, the amount of times she's being watched, every single day, the paparazzi outside her house, outside every restaurant she goes to, after every flight she gets off, and she's just living, enjoying life,” he added. “When she acts like that, I better not be the one acting weird.”
