If you follow the Kardashians as closely as I do, you know a few things: They love big salads, they live for #sponsored Instagram posts, and their children are adorable and will rule us all one day.
But you'd be forgiven for not knowing what the heck is going on with Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick's relationship. It has taken so many forms and they've been on and off more times than I can even count.
Luckily, I did count! So come with me through the tale of Kourtney and Scott's ever-changing relationship, as documented on social media and E!'s "Keeping Up with the Kardashians."
2006: Kourtney and Scott met for the first time.

Kourtney and Scott met at "Girls Gone Wild" creator Joe Francis's home in 2006, according to People magazine. She posted a throwback picture to that night on Instagram in 2015.
Scott said on an episode of "Kourtney & Khloe Take the Hamptons"that he was into Kourtney when they met. She later said that she didn't like him at first because he was "annoying," four years younger, and "didn't have a job." Get ready to sense a pattern.
2007: They began dating.
When "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" first began, Scott was prominently featured as Kourtney's boyfriend. The two seemed happy for the most part and couldn't keep their hands off of each other.
This makes sense, since they were in the phase of their relationship called "Limerence," a term coined by Dorothy Tennov in her book "Love and Limerence: The Experience of Being in Love." This phase can last anywhere from 18 months to two years and is often categorized by high sex drive and infatuation.
2008: We saw the first signs of trouble.
But their honeymoon period didn't last long. Not even a year into their relationship, Scott was accused of cheating during an episode of the show when the Kardashian sisters found texts on his phone that read, in part: "I loved looking into your eyes last night. I wish I could come to LA for a week and not tell Kourt."
She accused him of cheating on her with an ex and the two broke up that year. Kourtney then headed down to Miami for "Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami" as a single woman.
