Is ‘cripplingly lonely’ Taylor Swift reaching out to her ex-boyfriend Conor Kennedy?

Here are some new photos of Taylor Swift exiting her NYC hotel yesterday, on her way to a concert in New Jersey. I would just like to take a moment and praise Swifty… I know, I’m not usually the person to see for pro-Swifty senitments, but here we go. I like that she’s been keeping her head down since the anti-Swifty backlash following her Vanity Fair cover. I also like that she doesn’t seem destined for a Justin Bieber-like meltdown. Whatever negative stuff you can throw at Swifty, she actually has pretty decent PR instincts, and she knows when to back away and let her image have a “rest”. Swifty keeps her PR image tight, and that’s admirable in someone so young, I think. OK, nice moment over.

Do you realize that Swifty has been without an official boyfriend for three months? It’s been SO LONG! Yeah, she might be boning Ed Sheeran and/or that blonde surfer dude, but nothing is “official” until Swifty does a cutesy photo-op with the guy. So in her hour of loneliness and need, is it crazy that she would reach out to an ex? What if that ex was Conor Kennedy?

Are Taylor Swift and Conor Kennedy headed for a reunion? It might be so! Harry Styles can rest easy, but Taylor may “never, ever” want to get back together with him, but she might feel differently about Conor! Since her split from Harry earlier this year, Taylor has been suffering from “crippling loneliness” that Conor has been helping her through. Are they getting back together?

Conor, 18, has been a real shoulder for Taylor, 23 to cry on in recent months, as not only has she suffered another break up, she is being teased mercilessly for dating so many guys.

“Conor has been a real source of comfort to Taylor recently. She is suffering from crippling loneliness,” a source tells Grazia magazine.

However, don’t be hoping for a reunion between Taylor and Robert Kennedy‘s grandson just yet.

“They get on really well, but it was just a fleeting romance. She loves that he listens to her worries and he has been a real crutch. He’s the most down-to-earth person she’s dated.”

Taylor and Conor have a real bond, as she has been there for him in tough times also. She was a real rock for him following his mother’s suicide in 2012.

Yeah, this originally came from Grazia, so it’s not the most reliable thing in the world. But I do think Swifty would consider an 18-year-old Kennedy boy “down-to-earth”. Or that in her mind, she’s got real problems and she needs to vent on an 18-year-old who lost his mother a year ago. But other than that… I think this might be possible. I never really thought Conor and Taylor’s love story was over last year. I always believed they would eventually get back together. Maybe they’ll see each other during Conor’s spring break? Or maybe they’ll get back together for his summer break (before he goes back to prep school for his senior year in 2013-2014).

    I’m pretty neutral when it comes to TayTay, but damn, I ALWAYS have bag envy when it comes to her. She has some seriously great bags.

    • deehunny says:

      I know Swifty is stuck in a style box, but I really love what she wears. She is always very put together, non-skanky and confident.

      I want those tights/skinny jeans. What a cute, classy casual outfit.

  2. Eve says:

    Hollywood has run out of people for her to date so she’s started recycling former boyfriends now.

  3. Lucy says:

    She wasn’t away for long enough, I still find her annoying

  4. Mandy says:

    I thought this was Conor’s senior year? Did he fail a grade? How can he be 18 and only be a junior? I’m confused…

    • Mia 4S says:

      It’s becoming more and more common for parents to start their kids (especially boys) late in kindergarten, to give them an advantage. Sometimes there a reason, usually it’s just more of this “build the uber-child super self esteem parenting” BS!

      Cripplingly lonely at 22? God I hope not. If you cannot be “with yourself” at 22 you are in for a world of trouble and hurt!

      • Happymom says:

        The fault is with our educational system. They’ve now made kindergarten like first grade-the kids need to be fully reading, writing and able to do basic math. Back in the dark ages when I was a child (and started K at 4-fall birthday) they taught the alphabet, you spent a lot of time drawing and playing outside. If it was like that still I am sure that people would send their kids to kindergarten at an earlier point.

    • Sweet Dee says:

      I think they started him late so he’d have an advantage. Usually it’s for sports, but since they’re yuppies it might be academic.

    • Mandy says:

      Ahhh…I see.

    • INeedANap says:

      Is the advantage worth it though, when you end up graduating high school at 20?

  5. Allie says:

    Those pants are grotesque. Can she please wear things that compliment her body?

  6. Jess says:

    I find it weird that she’s so into teenage boys. It’s not the fact that there’s an age difference. If she was a 30r old dating a 25yr old, cool, but what 23yr old woman chases after 18yr old boys? Maturity wise, that’s a big, big gap, especially for a woman like her who has probably had a marriage/ babies deadline set since she was a litle girl. Does she really think a kid a few months out of school is going to sweep her off her feet?

    I guess mentally that’s where she’s at, 17-18 years old. If it was that she liked to be in control, she wouldn’t be consistently getting shown up by these boys. If she was just having fun, she wouldn’t be so insanely passive aggressive when the relationships end.

    • Erinn says:

      It must be a case of her not really having a normal teenaged life at that age. I really don’t get it. I’ll be 23 in May… there’s days I can’t handle my 20 year old co-workers… I can’t imagine a high school kid being any better than they are.

      +1

  7. Sweet Dee says:

    I’ve never noticed before, does she always wear hideous shoes?

    Could at least throw some glitter or unicorn stickers on those g’ma kicks.

  8. Faye says:

    Whats that I smell oh yes desperation and distinct need to grow the fuck up?

  9. Zoid says:

    Oh come on. This is a tabloid story. She actually seemed to listen to everyone’s advice to slow down and be by herself for a while, so I can’t hate on this, real or fake.

  10. SunnySide says:

    Why doesn’t anyone tell her that her sunglasses look terrible on her because of her nose? It makes it look Hathawayed. She needs to find a pair more fitting for her face!

  11. Lulu.T.O. says:

    Jeez, all the hate about what she is wearing, please! She is young, long and lean – she can get away with wearing almost anything. And crop skinnies are in this spring.

  12. Dawn says:

    She is just young and having fun in my opinion. She just needs to keep on making music and she will be fine. I went through boyfriends like crazy in high school and I don’t think she ever got to do that. By the time I was in college I was ready to settle down a bit more.

  13. Izzy says:

    Not sure if this story is true, but if it is, it says a lot that a 23-y/o would confide in an 18-y/o ex. (And by that I mean “a lot about being emotionally stunted.”)

  14. carol says:

    love her outfit but she’s still annoying and vaguely creepy somehow

  15. Lady Satan says:

    How can she be lonely? She’s never single for longer than a couple of days.
