Justin Bieber hasn't Instagrammed an old photo with Selena Gomez in nearly two months or been using the platform to track down hot girls, which seems like personal growth.
In fact, Biebs has a new, potentially healthier Instagram obsession: your crush from four years ago, Ryan Gosling. Specifically, Ryan Gosling in The Place Beyond the Pines.
Bieber shared a couple photos from the 2012 film and, well, it's pretty clear that Gosling's character is a mirror of Bieber's Purpose-era aesthetic. Gosling even has a face tattoo right by his eye, the location of Bieber's latest ink.
