I've been a swiftie since Red era and I haven't really thought about this until now... I'm a big fan of several bands and artists who I even listen more than TS, but none of them produce the same amount of passion or love I feel for her. And it is not like a love in the romantic sense, it is something weird I cannot explain.

Like I normally don't support the ideas of looking up to celebrities or artists because I think there's just so much behind the scenes we don't know, and in the end they're also humans. But this logic just melts away in my mind for Taylor Swift. I've binged her entire concerts and sang along from my room, teared up just watching her in live streams, and also I've felt proud for her when she gets an award or when she is recognized in some way. Also it is just so cute when she's just literally being herself, and I just cannot explain the warmth I feel I'm my heart when that happens.

I like literally feel myself like the most serious, skeptic, dead inside person within my social group, yet my passion and love for TS overcomes all that.

Now with the Eras Tour I think there's been a lot of coverage of the fandom and how some of us behave to some (sometimes not very nice) extremes just to maybe see her, and it made me think that is not just me who feels this love for someone who doesn't even know I exist.

My theory is that the feelings she portrays on her music have resonated with a lot of us to a personal level, to the point we feel identified with her. Myself I cannot put a finger in the exact set of songs that made me feel this, but it's the best explanation I can give myself.

Anyone else?
