For all of you tuning in to 'The Kardashians', you know that the Hulu series certainly has its fair share of drama. And while all the themes and plotlines seem to be the same, fans have been digging deep and making discoveries that certainly go beyond what plays out on screen.

Travis and Kourtney's relationship has been a focal point all season, with fans gushing over the fact that she has finally found a man who loves and deserves her. However, not everyone is under the same impression. Kourtney's kids not being present at her engagement raised a few red flags, and fans' concerns for the reality star don't end there.

As Kourtney sat down with Kris and told her about her ring situation, Kris opened up and told her why Travis moved to Calabassas. Even though "he didn't know her like that", he knew that Kourtney was the love of his life and decided to move closer to her. For Travis, if he couldn't be with her, he intended to at least "live by her", as told by Kris. While Kourtney found this romantic, fans were shocked to hear this, seeing that it made Travis come off as extremely controlling. Interestingly enough, despite this story, Kourtney admitted that she was the first to DM Travis and make a move on him.

Either way, fans took to Reddit to discuss this as no one was buying it. "Kourtney has always been such a romantic at heart I feel like these red flags are going way over her head or she's seeing them as epic proclomations of love…. like claiming you moved down the street from someone who's in a relationship with three kids is insane." said a Reddit user.

"He's a creep for sure, he reminds me of those guys that only says "cute" things because he says them with 100% lust and is just a sex addict and everything he says and does is to get laid, but disguises it as being "cute"… it's one of the grossest tactics IMO," wrote a Reddit user.

"Yah him buying the house near her was sooo weird....the family does not know what healthy love look like......first kim brags about pete branding her name on himself...then kris is highlighting travis's "unrequited love neighbor" thing...the whole fam is probs so traumatized and f**ked up! no one knows what healthy demonstrations of love looks like!!!" added another.
