BatteredByLove Posted July 5, 2006 Posted July 5, 2006 Rebound is really using another person to replace your ex, and in return you might and probably WILL hurt that person. It is best to not be on the rebound, you're not thinking clearly on what you're doing, all you want to do is get rid of that hurtful feeling and be with someone else, that's really what rebound is.
Tony T Posted July 5, 2006 Posted July 5, 2006 When you're on the rebound you seek to drown out your sorrow by pouring yourself into another person. You sort of transfer your affections from the old love object to the new one to help you forget the pain and hurt of the break up. They call them transitional relationships and the generally don't work. But, as Tony Robbins says, "People who go to greater lengths to avoid pain than to gain pleasure." I hope this helps you better understand what a rebound is. It's just a friendship or relationship, most often temporary, that we devise to help us through a period of sorrow. Most men and women are wise to this and they don't allow themselves to get sucked in by someone just out of a serious relationship.
