It is awfully difficult to be anything but a rebound with someone who's been out of a 2-year relationship for only a week. Not to say it can't happen, but it would be the exception and there are a ton of red flags here.

For one thing, you know only one side of their story. You don't know what really happened between them, and to be honest, I'd be reluctant to totally trust a guy who says his ex is crazy. He was with her for 2 years, was she crazy the whole time, or did he do something that triggered something in her? Did he cheat? You just don't know yet.

What you're feeling is exciting and fun, but it's way too soon to know whether he's someone you can trust with your heart. The instant attraction and bonding doesn't mean you're a good match; just that you have good chemistry together. And staying together for days at a time in the first month of your relationship probably isn't such a good idea if you're still trying to work on your dependency issues!

There's a level of comfort for both of you if his ex was dependent on him, and you were dependent on your ex. Unfortunately there is nothing to say that dynamic will change this time around. It may end just as badly for both of you.

I hate to be such a wet blanket, but I would try to be very careful with this guy, at least until you know each other better. You may end up being a good match, and he may really care about you. Or he may be looking for a distraction. Sometimes an intense attraction can feel like something more, before you know for sure.

Please just go slow, and guard your heart for awhile.
