What is TikTok’s Taylor Swift Mastermind trend?
Many of us can relate to the relationship troubles that form the central theme of most of Taylor Swift's music.
Several TikTokers have found the lyrics of her new song Mastermind, which references designing a relationship or meet-cute, very relatable.
Users have taken the lyrics and related it to their own instances of "boyfriend acquisition."
One TikToker claimed that she messaged her boyfriend with "20 book" recommendations after he sought them out on Instagram.

She revealed that she'd taken a deep dive into his posts and tried to "impress him" by recommending his favourites though she hadn't read the books she suggested.
She added: "I brought him a book to borrow because I knew it would guarantee a second date and keep me on his mind until thanksgiving break and now we’re married."
Another user claimed that she got her mum to hire her boyfriend as a math tutor in order to spend time with him, adding that they'd been together for three years.
A third user, whose post has gained over a million views, said she she found a band on Spotify, learned the words to their songs, and tagged them in her Instagram stories to secure a date.
She said: "I told him I didn’t really know anything about his music and now we’ve been dating for two years."

Another commented: "I’m sensing some of these stories are dramatised for the trend.
A third user said: "I think these would be cute if the girls actually paid attention to the things the boys liked. Like if they actually read the books or listened to the music etc. This is just weird and lying IMO."
