As her engagement news flooded the internet, this past comment of a 22-year-old Taylor resurfaced. As she was focusing on her rising career back then, she expressed her desire to get hooked for life with someone when she got older. She also revealed wanting to have a "minimum" of four children and shared:

"Being a mom full-time, doing everything for my kids, having a bunch of them. One day, I'm sure. But that's the only other thing that could be as thrilling for me as doing this."

Taylor Swift's comment on marriage and kids came a month after split with Conor Kennedy

Taylor's interview about wanting to find her 'the one,' getting married, and having kids with him came a month after she ended things with Conor Kennedy, the son of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. The Paper Rings singer shared that she wanted to be with someone who would make her experience the thrill of dating. She didn't want a boring relationship, nor did she want to spend her life with a man who wouldn't make the experience worthwhile. Revealing her idea of a forever with someone, Taylor said:

"I need that unexplainable spark ... I just need to see someone and feel 'Oh, no, uh-oh.' It's only happened a few times in my life, but I feel like if I was gonna be with someone forever, it would be because I saw them and I thought, 'Oh, no.'"

Travis mentioned his desire for a marriage that "lasts forever", contrasting it with his parents' separation. He also expressed admiration for friends whose parents have maintained happy and flourishing long-term relationships. Sharing that he wouldn't want to be in a marriage of obligation, rather one in which love took the front seat, he said:
