Any bad or good rebound relationships experience?

Answer 1

I left my first very abusive husband and rebound into the next relationship, He was a way better guy than the first one but anyone would have fit that ticket. The second ended up being just as bad in other ways. I realize now that I was at fault in the choices I had made because of rebounding instead of letting my self heal after the first jerk. I have two kids from the second and I stayed way to long in the relationship 8 years trying to make it work when he had no intention of helping unless I did all the work, and after a while that is exhausting. When I left I didn't date for a long time, until I felt like I had fixed the attitude and feelings and distrust I had for men. I waited close to two years and am now in a very loving relationship. Sometimes waiting is the hardest thing you possibly think you can do but believe me it helps in the long run and always in the new relationships. You don't want to bring the hurt and baggage into the new one because it will just tend to destroy things.

Answer 2

After I broke up with my high school sweetheart, I had an entire six months of rebound relationships.
The first one was a guy my age who had also just gotten out of a relationship. We went out together whenever he was in town (usually about one weekend a month) and always had an awesome time. We had both agreed not to pursue a relationship beyond the summer, since we were going off to different colleges, but when he found out I had a new guy, I could tell he was really hurt, even though we had never technically been "dating."
The other guy I went with that summer was in the military, so our two-week fling turned into a long distance relationship, which was way more stressful than it was worth.
After breaking up with him, I rebounded into a relationship with a friend. I soon discovered that I had chosen rather poorly -- he really was not ready for a relationship.
After that breakup, I rebounded into a relationship with the older brother of a good friend (who I later found out also wanted to date me). Once again, it was a poor match and just didn't work out.

After that I took some time and tried to figure out where I had gone wrong. I was sick of dating just to date, and promised myself I wouldn't just jump into a relationship again. I took some time off, focused in on my studies and my friendships, hung out with my gal friends that I had been neglecting, and when I finally did find someone I was interested in, I spent a few months getting to know him as a friend before actually starting to date him.

i was with my husband for 24 yrs. 4 kids he left for someone 14 yrs our junior. this was 7 years ago totally crushed our family, he is still with this pop tart, but came to me in the summer to ask about getting back together because he is so unhappy with this pop tart, i told him to go take a flying leap. now because of their actions our family is torn apart, her ex killed himself, their little boy thinks of my ex as his father and my ex can't stand this kid. it is a horrible mess. so don't rebound think it through and think about all the ramifications.
