Taylor Swift has had many friends throughout the years, and it’s hard to keep track of everyone who’s entered her squad. From Selena Gomez to long time friend Abigail Anderson, Swift has made some great friends along the way, and friends we have grown to love just as much as the superstar herself.

Swift and her squad have been through so much together from heartbreak and rumors to conquering the world. Each friend has stood by Swift’s side just as much as she has theirs. We respect the pop superstar for her loyalty and admire her for the way she loves those closest to her. But we know that those who don’t follow Swift as closely as we do can get lost in the shuffle, and most don’t know who’s in the squad and who’s not.

That’s why we have made a comprehensive list of everyone who’s in Swift’s squad, so old and new Swifties alike can keep track. Check out our list below, and let us know who your favorite squad member is, apart from Swift of course.

First Met: 10 days old

First Seen Together: They’ve always been best friends, therefore, we always see these two together

There is nothing like having a best friend for life. That is what these two are to each other. From diapers to being in weddings to celebrating life, these two are inseparable. Pretty sure when they’re both 89, they’ll still be best friends.

Taylor and Abigail go way back to high school in Tennessee. According to Taylor, the two friends clicked right away, and ever since then, they have been inseparable. On her album Fearless, Taylor mentioned Abigail in her song “Fifteen,” which allowed her fans to really take notice of her best friend.

Now, years later, Taylor is in Abigail’s wedding and hangs out with the rest of the squad on occasion. We love Abigail, and we are so happy that the two have stayed the best of friends.

It’s hard to believe a day where Selena and Taylor weren’t friends but that time did exist. We should really thank the Jonas Brothers for their friendship because it’s probably our favorite friendship of all. We love these together, and while Taylor may have a lot of friends, this one is different. We can sense that there is a special bond between Taylor and Selena, and we love it.

And let’s face it, an award show is only good when Taylor and Selena are in the front row dancing or watching them slay on the stage during the 1989 World Tour.

Ed and Taylor’s friendship is the best thing to happen in the 21st century. You can’t even argue that this isn’t true. They are by far the best of friends who have toured together, made gifts for each other, celebrated the Fourth of July together, and have stood up for one another. It doesn’t get any better than that. We are Sweeran fans for life.

Ever since Karlie and Taylor met, the two have been inseparable. The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in 2013 was only the beginning of what was to come for this life-long friendship. The two have now been seen together on stage during Taylor’s world tour, basketball games, and gatherings at her house. They even did a Vogue photo shoot together. We love these two, and we’re so happy Taylor has found someone like Karlie as a friend.

First Met: It’s all complicated. Lorde made a comment about Taylor being ‘perfect,’ and while the media thought it was a horrible comment, Taylor didn’t. After that, they agreed to meet up at Shake Shack. Can we really blame them for meeting place?

While the two are so different, they get along so well. Lorde and Taylor have been the best of friends for a few years now, and the world loves it. Sure, things started rocky for the two after rumors flew about Lorde throwing shade toward Taylor, but the two have gotten past it, and we’re so happy they did. P.S. can we take cooking classes with them?

From what we know, it sure seems like Taylor and Cara connected right away after meeting each other at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in 2013. They’ve made many memories together including Fourth of July parties and singing with Ed Sheeran. Cara also made it out to the 1989 World Tour to show her support for her best friend.

We would never expect the southern belle from Hart of Dixie Jaime King to be friends with Taylor, but they are, and we love it. Jaime has done nothing but praise Taylor’s sweet personality and the genius that is behind 1989.  Jaime has made several appearances on Taylor’s Instagram, and most recently, Jaime’s baby boy. Taylor is the godmother of baby Leo, and it’s adorable.

We have loved watching this friendship grow from the beginning. It’s been a blessing to sit back and watch Taylor as she supports her friend and hangs out with her little kid. It’s the best thing, and we only hope that Taylor can experience the joy of having her own child one day.

Can you imagine Taylor Swift giving your song a shout out on Twitter? That’s what she did for Kelsea Ballerini, and ever since then, the two have been friends. Kelsea has been seen on Taylor’s Instagram, performing on the 1989 World Tour, and drinking coffee with Taylor in New York. These two are our favorite girls, and we love that they are friends.

While they may have met during a Calvin Harris show, it doesn’t seem like that has stopped them from becoming the best of friends. Ruby and Taylor support one another, and according to Ruby, they tell each other everything. That’s a good friendship to have.

First Met: There is no official documentation of when these two met but we guess it was sometime in 2012

First Seen Together: Oscars Red Carpet

It appears that these two friends go way back, and they both dated Joe Jonas. But, that doesn’t seem to be something that they have let affect their friendship. They’re both superstars, and friends that we believe will stick together forever.
