I split up with my ex five months ago,and we're now going through a divorce.About 2 weeks after splitting up with him i started seeing this guy and for a couple of months things were on and off between us,but since December we have been fairly solid,and he says he loves me.I think i love him too,i can't imagine him not being part of my life,but obviously i am still getting over my ex.Now i find i am pregnant to him.
I already have a son who is 8,and i always wanted another child(my ex didn't want another,but we did try once and i had a miscarriage.) I am nearly 33 and my new partner is nearly 48 and he already has 2 grown up children,so that is praying on my mind a bit.He says he will stand by me if i decide to keep it,but with my divorce and everything not being sorted yet,my head is in a complete mess.
I don't feel as if i'm 'on the rebound' How does anyone ever know these things? Is there anyone out there who ended up staying with their 'rebound' person? Has it worked for you?

Yes it can work but you have to be serious about making it work. It worked for me. I've been very happily married for the last 5 years and have had another child. This relationship is stronger because you take on the mistakes and troubles you had last time and make sure they don't happen this time. Once the divorce is over you can close the door on that chapter and concentrate on the next. Do positive things together and make your new family work. Good Luck but I'm sure you'll be fine.

Yes it can work out. By boyfriend and I got together only 4 weeks after his ex-fiance and him split. We are still going strong and it has been over a year. In the beginning it was a little hard but as long as you both keep open communication. Also have understanding for what the other is feeling you can and will be fine. As for the child you have always wanted another and he is fine with having another than cherish this gift you have been given. I think what you need to do is concentrate on finalizing your divorce and to move forward and be happy with your new life.

Rebounds can work. I lived with this guy for almost three years. We broke up, and a month later, I met another guy who had just broken up with his live-in girlfriend. Six months later, we were engaged, nine months after that we had a baby, and now we've been married for 3 years. Still happy and going strong!

Work like you don't need the money.
Love like you've never been hurt.
Dance like nobody's watching.
Sing like nobody's listening.
Live like it's Heaven on Earth.
May there always be work for your hands to do;
May your purse always hold a coin or two;
May the sun always shine on your windowpane;
May a rainbow be certain to follow each rain;
May the hand of a friend always be near you;
May God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you.
