the rebound.
everyone wants one right after a relationship. to make you believe you're alright to make you believe you can find other people. everyone's been a rebound, if not. at least once in their lifetime. and it hurts. sometimes. to realize the person your dating isn't dating you because of you but to get their mind off someone else. so whats your opinion on a rebound? |

i dont think i've ever been a rebound yet. but im pretty darn sure i want one right now XD
i heard on a TV show that 1 particular person's longest relationship was actually a REBOUND! i thought that was sort of weird. but i don't see anything wrong with it. i dont think its that big of a deal. stuff happen. worst comes to worst u just break up...n get a rebound for your rebound? XD |

now that i think of it, i think that i have been a rebound before, but it wasn't so bad i mean my ex and i lasted pretty long.
i don't think it's such a big deal unless their just using you and everytime the have a failed relationship they come back to you. |

Eh, I think I might have been a rebound for my boyfriend, because he had just broken up with his ex a month or so before we went out... But we're still together, and it's been more than a year, so I don't think he's dating me anymore as a rebound. But, I think I might have also used him as a rebound for my ex, who I still couldn't get over...
Eh, I guess I don't like them that much because I would rather have a guy that wants to be with me for me, and not just to forget someone else. |

I hate being someone else's rebound. It makes me feel unworthy because he doesn't want me for who i am but whoever isn't his ex, which can be any other girl on the planet.
I don't like having rebounds either, because if i mess that one up then my life is pretty much a big screw up

i've had rebounds, but i've never been a rebound.
 i think it's really bad, but sometimes you can't control how you feel, and you don't even notice it yourself. you tell yourself that it's for real but then it's really not, so that's tough. i guess you're just lucky if it actually turns into something real.

you use the guy you dumped as a rebound? or would just be considered 'not over him'? > < |

dont think i've been a rebound neither have i went for one. i'm against it so i would never want a part in that kind of situation. i don't need the reasurance that i can find someone else. i'll find him when he comes around. i'm in no hurry.

I've had rebounds and I've been one before. After being one, I don't feel like having rebounds ever again. It really hurts when you're with someone you really care about but also to know that he's being with you to try and take his mind of someone else. I guess what I felt must have been felt by my rebounds as well. Not a nice feeling.

when i'm "on the rebound" i'm not trying to pretend that i'm fine and that i can get someone else. to me, it means that i found someone better and more well suited to what i want.
i've always had a rebound guy. |

My current boyfriend started out as a rebound I guess. I had just moved and was trying to get over a boy I left back home.
Almost a year later and we are still together. =] |

i dont think i've ever been a rebound.. but ive used one night stands as rebounds and they dont help.. so ive learned rebounds arent good though they seem like a good idea in the first place. you always just end up liking the same person that dumped you in the first place...
