A person in search of relationship advice should always go to an expert. If you want cleaning advice, ask a clean person. If you want relationship advice, go find a cute old couple who just celebrated their 65th wedding anniversary. But if you want advice on how to handle a breakup, you should always go to Taylor Swift. One heartbroken fan did just that this week, and Taylor Swift actually responded with some very good advice.

One sad fan posted a Tumblr message directed at Taylor Swift about how her boyfriend had broken up with her and was being a real jerk about yanking her around and toying with her feelings. People must do this sort of thing all the time, but this time Taylor Swift stepped in to help, chatting with the fan and commiserating over her broken heart and hurt feelings. On top of offering sympathy, Swift gave some epic advice and told the fan to cut the dude loose and stop answering when he called to jerk her around.
“There is nothing wrong with avoiding people who hurt you,” said Swift.
Best of all, Taylor Swift made her fan a break-up playlist to help her get through the heartache. Swift subtly avoided including any of her own songs on the playlist, but recommended “Stay Away” by Charli XCX, “Not Around” by Montgomery, “Wings” by HEARTS, “Coffins” by Misterwives, “Sleep” by Azure Ray, and “Begin Again” by Measure.
I can’t think of a single celebrity at this point who is as good as Taylor Swift at relating to her fans through social media. The whole exchange was touching and wonderful, and we’re all going to need that playlist. Check out the whole conversation here:
