In a letter to his fans on a MySpace post, Joe Jonas explains his break-up with Taylor Swift. In the post he says that certain "issues" led to a "change of heart."

"Several things I will state with all my heart," writes Jonas, 19, who's now quietly dating actress Camilla Belle. "I never cheated on a girlfriend. It might make someone feel better to assume or imply I have been unfaithful but it is simply not true. Maybe there were reasons for a breakup. Maybe the heart moved on. Perhaps feelings changed. I am truly saddened that anything would potentially cause you to think less of me."

In an interview with Ellen DeGeneres, Taylor Swift tells DeGeneres that Joe broke up with her in a 27-second phone call. Joe says that he was not the one who ended the conversation.

"For those who have expressed concern over the '27 second' phone call, I called to discuss feelings with the other person," he writes. "Those feelings were obviously not well received. I did not end the conversation. Someone else did. Phone calls can only last as long as the person on the other end of the line is willing to talk."

Joe Jonas also wrote, "Anytime you are in a relationship for any length of time there are going to be issues. Sometimes they resolve. Other times they lead to a change of heart. This was the case recently."

In the end he wishes Swift the best but does not want fans of the Jonas Brothers to have the wrong impression of the truth.

A face-to-face break up would still be better than a phone call. Would not be this big of a mess at least.
