Having a "rebound" after serious relationship ends

[LateBloomer]

I can say that I have, but it was many moons ago. To me it was hard to fill his shoe physically and emotionally. What I did was I started dating again and until the moment I felt it was time for a new relationship, I surrounded myself with my good friends who kept me busy and provided emotional support.
Breakups are NEVER easy and to me love is like a sunburn. Once burned, the pain is very intense and lasts for a long time. If you decide to rebound even just with a physical fling, emotions always play into it. There is an immediate attraction to the person you rebound with. This is my opinion from my experience. Wish I could say something to help with the heartache. mile:

Thanks for sharing your experience, but I'm not the one looking FOR a rebound. I'm afraid I might BE the rebound--and I don't want to play that part.

Maybe I should have made that clear in my original post.
