Oh. Sorry I was so cynical. Apparently Tom waited until she was single to text her and send her flowers:
"Tom wasted no time in asking Taylor out after he learned she was single. They were texting quite a bit and he asked her out.' Reveal magazine also wrote: 'Tom has had the hots for Taylor since the Met Gala. When he learned she was single, he texted her loads and even sent her flowers." http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-3643677/Taylor-Swift-Tom-Hiddleston-enjoying-secret-romance-pictured-kissing-beach-following-split-Calvin-Harris-fortnight-ago.html
