Scott Disick and Kourtney Kardashian had a heart-to-heart about the future of their relationship on Thursday’s (April 22) episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians – and he asked her to make a big decision!
As a refresher, Scott and Kourtney and were very much a thing for almost a decade before splitting in 2015 – they share three kids together: 11-year-old Mason, eight-year-old Penelope, and six-year-old Reign.
While they’ve both moved on with other people post-split, they remain close and continue to co-parent their children. It’s important to note though that when the episode was filmed, both of them were single.
Opening up to Kourt’s sisters, Kim and Khloe, he admits, “It’s like, I have different expectations for our life, the way we treat each other, but it’s kind of like, one-sided. She’s always said, ‘I want a man that takes charge, that has money, who’s successful, can take care of me and not make me lift a finger.'”
“I play the role of a husband. I treat her like my wife, she talks to me like I’m her husband. I do my best to take care of her, you know what I mean?” he continued. “But then I realize in return, I don’t really get much of anything. And it sucks sometimes.”
With that, Kim asked, “Do you think she’s stringing you along?”
“I don’t know,” Scott answered.
And later, when he goes to the confessional, he legit admits he gets jealous when Kourt gives another guy attention.
“I think the thing that keeps Kourt and I connected is that deep down we do love each other. To see her kind of be flirty or trying to be cute for another guy, not me, will always strike some kind of jealousy bone in my body,” he said. “In a perfect world, Kourtney and I end up just being together and raising our family. But as you know, complications happen.”
He also straight up told Kourt about it, revealing, “I feel like I just don’t like seeing you with another guy. It hurt me when you’re with somebody else and waking up to, like, looking at pictures of you with this guy you were dating. It was just unhealthy and it just made me upset and sad, you know what I mean?”
“The big fear is if you start dating again, then it goes back to that and I have to feel, like, a different way again and it’s just hard,” he added. “It sucks. I guess now that you’re single and I’m single and you haven’t been with somebody in a bit, either we figure out creating our own lives together or separately.”
Feeling like their relationship is in limbo, he asks her to define their relationship.
“I’m OK with you, I guess, doing whatever you want if you can just make the final decision of that you and I are never going to try to be a family again,” he told Kourtney. “Then I could move on and I could deal with you being with other people.”
“And I don’t want to give you an ultimatum and I don’t want to push you. I don’t want to make you anxious,” he went on. “But you don’t say no, and you leave this door open, so I have expectations in my mind, and they don’t seem to ever get met. I don’t want to have to like, live in limbo for the rest of my life with you.”
“Yeah, I don’t want to live in limbo either,” she replied.
“I feel like you’re lonely, I don’t want you to be,” Scott said.
Kourtney disagreed though. “I’m not lonely,” she told him, and also stated that she’s “happy right now.” Scott, however, said he wasn’t.
And he’s having a hard time understanding why they couldn’t work things out given that they’re so close.
“I just want a little bit more at the end of the night,” Scott said. “After we take care of our children, to go to sleep in two different rooms two feet apart, seems stupid to me if two people could work things out. It seems like we do everything else together, but like, the intimacy part that we leave for other people. And then those other people are just jealous of our relationship. And they feel like the only thing they have is the intimacy part, not like, the friendship and everything else and sharing children in life. I love you, so it’s difficult.”
Fast forward to day, it appears they chose to figure out their lives separately – Scott is in a relationship with Amelia Hamlin; Kourt is dating Travis Barker.
However, sources say Scott is apparently still struggling when it comes to Kourt dating other guys – and especially Travis.
And, according to an Entertainment Tonight source, “things between them have changed a bit.”
“Having Kourtney and Travis get so serious has been an adjustment for Scott. He is still trying to get used to it,” the source tells the outlet, but noted that Scott and Kourt are “still close.”
Another source tells People that Scott is “struggling even more” with Kourt’s relationship with Travis.
“Before Travis, Kourtney’s relationships were never serious. It was more like flings. With Travis, it’s different,” the source tell People.
“Scott was pretty shocked when he found out that they are dating, and he can tell that they have moved very quickly,” the source continues. “His kids love Travis, which is also hard for Scott. Kourtney and Travis are like a family with the kids. Scott is having a hard time with this situation.”
Apparently, Scott “has many regrets” and know he totally “messed up” with Kourtney in the past. But he was still holing to hope that they would work things out.
“For a long time, he still hoped that they would end up back together,” the insider adds.
