How to tell if it's a rebound

Ok. I have a question. Can everyone try to give me their honest opinion on the topic. Rebounding. It seems from what I have been reading on here the past few months in most relationships, when the guy is the dumper, and usually moves on fairly quickly does it mean that he's using this new person to fill the void of the last relationship? (especially if they show signs of being afraid to be alone from their past). Are they doing this so they can get over the relationship faster? If they have to do this why not just stay in the relationship?

Do these things usually last? What if you were very close and the reason your relationship ended was due to lack of communication and the other person being stubborn?

Do guys or for that matter girls who do the dumping usually stay really busy after a breakup so they don't dwell on the failed relationship and if so how long does this usually last before they can't run from it anymore and they have to finally deal with it. What if we are still talking once in awhile? Don't you think if they wanted you out of their life to be with this new person they would just say stop calling me, don't talk to me anymore? Or is it simply they are keeping you around in case things don't work out with this other person.

Another question, if they have to doubt things working out with the new person, why breakup the first relationship in the first place? Why not stick by and work things out?
