Taylor was blindsided by her second over-the-phone split — will she EVER find the right man?
She may be America’s sweetheart, but Taylor Swift is still reeling from the heartbreak of Jake Gyllenhaal deciding she wasn’t the one for him.
Friends close to the star tell Us Weekly that Taylor’s pain was most evident at the Jan. 5 People’s Choice Awards.
“She was not her usual bubbly, over-animated self,” the source says. “She didn’t eat anything, seemed very sad and definitely wasn’t having a good time.”
Although the couple only dated for two months, Taylor was taken aback when Jake ended their high-profile romance with a phone call telling her it wasn’t working out.
“Taylor is really upset and hurt,” another friend tells the mag. “She doesn’t know what she did for him to just put a stop to it. She feels really burned by him.”
Previous reports point to Jake’s unease with paparazzi attention and their nine-year age difference as the reasons for their breakup.
If Taylor’s dating history and angry songs about boys are any indication, she’s no stranger to heartbreak.
We hope she finds the right man soon!

Give me a break. Women break up with guys over the phone all the time. In fact, I don’t think a women has ever broken up with me in person (and I’m 51 years old). So, why then is it such a crime for a man to break up with a woman by telephone? After all, this is the modern age and women love the texting thing when a relationship is new. A bit hypocritical, don’t you think?
Basically, phone break-ups are perfect. After all, why should you have to see someone that you don’t want to see anymore just to tell them that you don’t want to see them anymore.
