Harry Style expects Taylor Swift to write songs about him

Harry Styles is not worried about Taylor Swift's penchant for penning songs about her ex-boyfriends as he fully expects her to come up with something about him.

The British singer, 19 split from the "I Knew You Were Trouble" singer in early January after a few months of dating.

Styles, however, is all praise for Swift, 23, as a musician, reported Us magazine.

"It would be hypocritical for me to say she couldn't do it because everybody writes songs based on personal experience. I can't say I'd have dated someone less famous to avoid it. At least she's a great songwriter," the One Direction star said.

Styles admits that his fame make it difficult for his relationships to work.

"I think it's people, you like people for who they are, so I couldn't say I want to date someone less famous because of the hassle. You like who you like. I think relationships are hard enough, so I think you have to completely ignore everything from outside.

"When you're in the opening stages of a relationship as it is, you're still under the pressure of getting to know everything about a person. If you have a lot of people from outside telling you what it is and they don't even know you, telling you what your relationship is, that's weird."

The young heartthrob has a list of what he likes in his girlfriend and a good smile tops the list.

"Someone with a cute laugh and a good smile. Someone you can have fun with - I like someone who's up for doing stuff in terms of like, trying new things and going out new places. Not just someone who does nothing and wants to sit around," he said about the kind of girl he would like to date.
