I think the meaning is pretty clear. This person got really burned in a previous relationship, and because of this is unable to love and show care in his present one, even though he so badly wants to. It's lovely song, and very sad. You can really feel how defeated and frustrated he is with himself.
Chorus:
Do you? Do you want me?
Do you love me?
Forever and ever?
Do you? Do you need me?
Never leave me, when we are together
Come on baby, I love you so
Really drives me crazy (x2)
Come on baby, I gotta go
Show me some affection
Give me some reaction
Bridge:
Stop kidding me, stop fooling me
Stop using me
What's it gonna be?
Do you? Do you want me?
Do you love me?
Forever and ever?
Do you? Do you need me?
Never leave me, when we are together
Come on baby, just let it go
Is this mutual attraction waiting for some action?
Come on baby, I want you so
Everything I do, I do it all for you
So...
Bridge:
Stop kidding me, stop fooling me
Stop using me
What's it gonna be?
Do you? Do you want me?
Do you love me?
Forever and ever?
Do you? Do you need me?
Never leave me, when we are together (x2)
Bridge:
Stop kidding me, stop fooling me
Stop using me
What's it gonna be?
Do you? Do you want me?
Do you love me?
Forever and ever?
Do you? Do you need me?
Never leave me, when we are together
Do you? Do you want me?
Do you love me?
Forever and ever?
Do you? Do you need me?
Never leave me, and won't ever leave me alone?
Do you? Do you want me?
Do you love me?
Forever and ever?
Do you? Do you need me?
Never leave me, when we are together
Come on baby, I love you so
Really drives me crazy (x2)
Come on baby, I gotta go
Show me some affection
Give me some reaction
Bridge:
Stop kidding me, stop fooling me
Stop using me
What's it gonna be?
Do you? Do you want me?
Do you love me?

Shudder to Think
Shudder to Think
This song is timeless, and nearly 20 years after its creation, still possesses the mystique it did the first time i heard it ~1994. To me, at first blush, all those years ago, it had some kind of homo-erotic allure. The line "so that the others may do" tells of something which must be done for others to follow suit. It felt like like some kind of roxy-glam-pop invitation to sexual liberation.
Upon further introspection I think the song may not have an intrinsic meaning, but simply represents a sort of "holding open the door" for people who otherwise might be affronted by this song/band's unusual style. I know, as a sort of armchair rock-historian, that there have been few bands so daring and so true to the sound that wanted to emerge from within, whether the creator wanted it or not. This band handled it with elegance and grace seldom, if ever, seen.

This song is Swift's response to the negative reputation the media has given her.
"I can make the bad guys good for a weekend" - the bad guys are the paparazzi to Swift, but are good to the "player" since association with Swift immediately gives publicity. Any publicity is good publicity and Swift knows this.
"You can tell me when it's over" - the tabloids rumor relationships are over before the couple announces it officially.
With this song Swift is portraying the way she is portrayed by the media.
It is a sarcastic jab at how she views herself and how her "ex-lovers" only wanted to be with her to increase their fame.
I applaud the brilliance in writing about how you always write about relationships.
It is expected so Swift is giving the media what they want and profiting off the attention.
