Horribly, and I want you to think of it as horribly - you have ripped out his innocent heart and are now jumping up and down on it, seemingly without remorse or understanding of the consequences of your actions.

I mean a few of us have been through the whole rebound thing and its not pleasant at the best of times. Ive been there and sometimes the rebound thing is the only way to get back some of your self-esteem and confidence.

The OP posted asking for advice, and recognises that things could/should of been handled differently, that in itself should tell you something.

We are supposed to be a community and a source of advice, thats why the OP posted here. Attacking him in this way is not helping anyone, and its certainly not providing any advice, constructive or otherwise!
