Younes Bendjima Was "Supposed to Be a Rebound" for Kourtney Kardashian

Kourtney Kardashian and Younes Bendjima have called it quits after almost two years of dating. By the looks of things, this split definitely wasn't amicable. Photos of Younes getting very cozy with a girl who is (spoiler alert!) *not* Kourtney were published by TMZ on Tuesday and that's when sh*t hit the fan.

Younes was in L.A. recently, and things were not great. He and Kourtney didn’t get along. They decided to take a break but were not officially over.”

After the pictures of Younes with another woman surfaced, "they are definitely not getting back together."

While Kourtney was spotted out with Kim, as well as her daughter Penelope Disick, looking cool, calm, and collected after news of the split broke, Younes was firing off on Instagram. “They really want me to be the bad guy. F*ck your Hollywood bullsh*t, can’t have fun with your friends no more." Apparently, the only person he has to please is God. IDK about you, but that's usually what people say when they're feeling guilty. 

Is it just me, or is Younes giving off major Ross Geller vibes following his split from Rachel Green in the third season of Friends? Younes calling Kourt from Mexico, probably:
