lookingforyou Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Not sure if this is the right place to post this question but it's related. I would like to know the signs of someone that's going into a rebound relationship, not necessarily deliberately or conscious of what he's doing. I think the breakup was a year ago. Is wanting a relationship fast and jumping into it one of them?

Author lookingforyou Posted June 19, 2013 Author Posted June 19, 2013 If the breakup was a year ago, that doesn't sound like someone rebounding. That was what I thought. But can time really be the end-all-and-be-all gauge? He was broken up with, if it matters.
theonlyjuan Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Personally. I went into one a month after a long relationship, then straight into another 2 weeks after that. Could be like me, hates being on their own. I fee like I have to have a girlfriend to validate myself. I don't enjoy my own company and don't know what actually makes me happy. I use relationships and partners to make me happy and complete my life. It's totally wrong and unfair of me. Some people jump into relationships because they think it helps them get over their ex. You could call it a rebound. Maybe he's like me and has problems
Dundas Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 If he found someone else a year after you broke up, how could it be 'just a rebound'? It's been an entire year, he can't be single forever! My ex-gf left me for another guy... which I believed was 'just a rebound'... I mean, how can you date someone for nearly 3 years then just up and walk away with someone else? But over 2 months later and them seeming happy, I believe she really has moved on. Which I'm trying to do too. I don't believe in rebounds, I think a rebound is still a relationship.

Is wanting a relationship fast and jumping into it one of them? calling it a "rebound relationship" is a little irrelevant. even if someone dumps someone and the next day is in a relationship, it doesn't mean that they want to be with the new person any less than if they waited a year after the breakup. recent breakup or old breakup, if a person wants a relationship they'll get into one. 1

I just don't want to be at the brunt of it when I'm someone's rebound.
