Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth met on the set of the "The Last Song," but it was their first song. In the coming years, we watched as Cyrus wore an engagement ring, and then got really mad when we thought she was engaged, and then she was actually engaged, and then was possibly not engaged, and then was maybe engaged again.
It's been a wild ride, not unlike one of those old wooden roller coasters; the couple's young love has been filled with the kind of ups and downs that probably won't lead to your death, but are likely to give you back pain. Yet, like all wooden roller coasters, it's time this one got the wrecking ball.
Here, to help you deal with the heartbreak (or maybe just general confusion), an exhaustive guide to Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth's on-again, off-again, on-again, and now definitively, p.r.-rep-confirmed off-for-good relationship.
August 2009 - Miley and Liam are officially dating, and it was like a door had opened (literally). Miley later told Ellen DeGeneres how it happened:
"I was like, guys just need to be out of my life for a little while. [I thought] 'I just need to be alone.' But I met him, and he opened the door for me, and I was like, I have been in L.A. for three years and I don't think any guy has actually opened the door for me. It wasn't that he wanted the job. That's just who he is. I was like, 'Wow, that is super-impressive.' I actually turned to the director and said, 'He's got the job.' He's hot and he opened the door. Excellent."
March 2010 - In an interview with Parade magazine, Miley calls Liam her "first serious boyfriend." "I know who I am now," she said, "I am so content and full of purpose ... I guess God was like, ‘Girl, here is this amazing guy.’” Well, thank heavens.

March 21, 2012 - Liam professes his love for Miley in Details magazine, and it all kind of sounds like this great big rushing waterfall of feelings:
