You know how people say train wrecks are difficult to see but you can’t look away?

That’s kind of how Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber’s budding relationship is right now.

For background, the pair got together way back in 2009, split in 2012, then were on and off through 2015. They even wrote bangers about each other. Don’t tell me you don’t turn up Where R U Now in the car when you’re alone or cry in the shower to Same Old Love.

Anywho, the duo kind of had a lyrical battle for the greater part of 2016 which defined most of our playlists. One day Justin would come out with a song telling Selena to Love Yourself, then Selena would fire back, and Justin would say Sorry. The whole thing was pretty iconic and nobody could look away.

But then things kind of flamed out when Selena was rumored to be dating The Weeknd about 6 months ago.

Well, last weekend things went south with Selena and The Weeknd. She and Justin Bieber were seen attending church and grabbing brunch together.

The Weeknd promptly hit back by unfollowing Selena’s friends family on Instagram.

And then they broke up the next day. According to TMZ, The Weeknd did the breaking up. Which seems pretty natural because what boyfriend is okay with his girlfriend romping around town with an old flame? Later that day, The Weeknd hit the club and dirty danced up on some cuties.

Then as recently as yesterday morning, Selena and Justin were seen bike riding together.

If that doesn’t look like a couple of kids in love I don’t know what does.

Then — as if we needed more proof — last night Selena attended Justin Bieber’s hockey scrimmage and wore his sweaty jersey.

This is notable because a) you only wear a guy’s sweaty jersey if you’re majorly into him and b) you only cheer for a guy who’s garbage at hockey if you’re dating him. The rules are simple. And Justin Bieber is an absolute dumpster fire at hockey. Especially for a Canadian. He moves with all the grace of a legless child.

Congrats on stealing your girl back, I guess.
