If a man has just recently ended a long-term relationship & gets involved with someone else is this still considered a rebound relationship & does the man at the time realize that this is what is going on. Also, if a man is seeing a married woman who still is living with her husband can this prolong the honeymoon phase of the relationship because they have to sneak around & do not get to see each other all the time? Can a man continue seeing a married woman for a long period of time without expecting her to choose them over the husband if their goal is to have a monogomous relationship with this person?

-- Depends on the circumstances. Let's say the guy just got divorced, and the divorce proceedings took a year to finish. Obviously, he knows the relationship has been over for a year. He's probably had closure by this point. Just because the relationship is now officially over doesn't necessarily mean the next one is a rebound relationship; it could have been dying a long death prior to that.
Also, if a man is seeing a married woman who still is living with her husband can this prolong the honeymoon phase of the relationship because they have to sneak around & do not get to see each other all the time?
-- No. The honeymoon phase lasts about the same amount of time regardless of sneaking out and not seeing each other. You eventually get to know each other well, and that's when the honeymoon period ends: when you know a lot about the other person, stop being on your best behavior, and have learned the quirks about the other person.
Can a man continue seeing a married woman for a long period of time without expecting her to choose them over the husband if their goal is to have a monogomous relationship with this person?
-- No. Eventually, it's time to choose. Depending on how quickly he falls in love with her, this could be sooner or later. Same for the wife. She may feel obligated to stay with her husband because of her wedding vows, but eventually she's going to have to decide if she's willing to break her vows to be with her boyfriend.

it sounds like a rebound. cos he's going out with someone who doesn't expect a commitment (or at least shouldn't) because she can't offer one herself.
