I'm thinking about entering a 'rebound' relationship.

    It's relatively normal to be on the rebound, but healthy and selfish as the non rebound person is being used.

    Proceed with caution, they usually don't end well. Are you the rebound or are they?

    Rebounds are about having sex and reestablishing confidence. Eat, talk, fuck, and be friends. What's love got to do with it?

    I never understood this whole "rebound" concept fully . I understand it's a relationship after a relationship but it seems a little silly to me? If you have no real intentions with the person , why even date them? it would make more sense for me to just tell a woman sorry , I am not looking for something serious since I just came out of a relationship . I feel pretty drained however I wouldn't mind a friend and if it leads to something sexual I'm all for it as I find you very attractive . The other person now has the power to decide if that's worth it for them or they only want someone for dating . If I go "rebound" a girl .. she's bound to get hurt , hey maybe that's why they call it rebound ? It wouldn't make me feel very good either if I somehow got ahold of that knowledge that I was just some woman's rebound .

        I understand the motive behind it but I don't understand the practice of it . I don't see why someone would need to deceive and hurt someone to fill their emptiness . It's such a selfish act , if someone needs to fill an emptiness they need to work on themselves to be more independent until they find someone but also they can simply make a friend instead? It doesn't have to be a labelled relationship .

    I doubt that love will enter into the relationship at all. This sort of relationship is often a couple of people using the other for their own selfish needs, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, in this case.
    Anything one can do to ease the pain and feelings from a break up are a good thing, as long as you aren't hurting someone else.

    As long as you guys have fun and no one gets hurt. Be clear and honest with each other on your intentions.

      Basically when a girl kicks you to the curb but you bounce back up dick first into another vagina.

    Is it normal? Yes. Is it wise?no. The worse mistakes are on the rebound.

    Is it you or them rebounding? Or are you reuniting with an ex and you're both rebounding, or if not, does the rebounder still see or communicate with the ex on any regular basis? Either way, sometimes they work, sometimes not. Just move slower and protect your heart as you do this.
