#NerdsUnite: 11 Signs of a Rebound Relationship

Talk Nerdy To Me’s @StaffWriter:

It’s normal to feel a little lonely after a break-up. But if you’re feeling really lonely, and you find yourself jumping into new relationships before you’ve had time to heal, then it might be time to take a step back and look at what’s going on.

Here are 11 signs that you are in a relationship rebound.

1) You’re Feeling Overwhelmingly Lonely in a Relationship

Feeling overwhelmingly lonely in a new relationship can be a sign that you’re in a rebound relationship. Rebound relationships often lack the depth and intimacy that are essential for a lasting connection. If you’re feeling lonely in your relationship, it’s important to take the time to assess whether your relationship is built on a solid foundation. Otherwise, you may find yourself feeling even more lonely and lost after the relationship ends.

2) You Find Yourself Attracted to People Who Are Bad for You

Rebound relationships are often based on intense emotions like lust or revenge, rather than genuine connection or mutual respect. And while they might provide some temporary relief from the pain of a breakup, they rarely lead to lasting happiness.

Be especially aware of a pattern of dating a series of people who are bad for you.

So, if you find yourself attracted to someone who is bad for you, it might be time to take a step back and reassess your priorities.

3) You’re Not Really Interested in Getting to Know the Person You’re Dating

If you find that you’re not really interested in getting to know the person you’re dating, it may be a sign that you’re rebounding. When we rebound, we often try to date people who are nothing like our exes. We do this because we think it will help us forget about our exes and move on. However, this usually backfires, as we end up getting even more hurt in the end.

4) You’re Moving Too Fast

Rebound relationships can often be identified by how quickly they move. If you’re moving too fast, it might be a sign that you’re not really interested in the person you’re dating. Instead, you’re just trying to fill the hole left by your ex. This is not only unhealthy for you, but it’s also not likely to lead to a lasting relationship.

If you’re feeling lonely after a break-up, it’s important to take your time with any new relationships. A rebound relationship is likely to only cause more pain in the long run. Take some time for yourself and focus on rebuilding your own happiness before trying to build a new relationship.

5) You’re Avoiding Your Feelings

If you avoid your feelings, it may be a sign that you’re in a rebound relationship. When we’re hurting, it’s natural to want to avoid our pain. And while a new relationship can provide a distraction from our hurt, it’s only temporary. Eventually, we must face our feelings head-on if we ever want to move on.

6) You’re Comparing Your New Relationship to Your Old One

Constantly comparing your new relationship to your old one may be a sign that you’re in a rebound relationship. When we rebound, we often try to find someone who will make us forget about our ex. However, this is usually an impossible task. No one can replace our ex, and no relationship can ever be the same as our previous one.

7) Excessive Need for Reassurance from a Partner

If you find yourself needing excessive reassurance from your partner, it may be a sign that you’re in a rebound relationship. When we rebound, we often try to find someone who will make us forget about our ex. However, this is usually an impossible task. No one can replace our ex, and no relationship can ever be the same as our previous one. This is why it’s so important to be honest with ourselves and to pay attention to the warning signs of a rebound relationship.

8) Jumping Into New Relationships Before Having Time to Heal

When we go through a break-up, it’s natural to want to jump into a new relationship as a way of coping with the pain. However, this is usually not a good idea, as it usually leads to more heartache in the end. It’s important to take the time to heal after a break-up, and to only enter a new relationship when you’re ready.

If you find yourself entering new relationships too quickly after your break-up, it may be a sign that you’re rebounding. When we rebound, we often try to date people who are nothing like our exes. We do this because we think it will help us forget about our exes and move on. However, this usually backfires, as we end up getting even more hurt in the end.

9) You’re Looking for a Replacement

Looking for a replacement for your ex may be a sign that you’re in a rebound relationship. When we rebound, we often try to date people who are nothing like our exes. We do this because we think it will help us forget about our exes and move on. However, this usually backfires, as we end up getting even more hurt in the end.

10) You Just Want to Be in a Relationship

If you only want to be in a relationship for the sake of being in a relationship, it may be a sign that you’re rebounding. When we rebound, we often try to date people who are nothing like our exes. We do this because we think it will help us forget about our exes and move on. However, this usually backfires, as we end up getting even more hurt in the end.

11) Grief That Never Goes Away with the End of a Relationship

When we go through a break-up, it can be really tough. We may feel like we’ll never get over our ex and that we’ll never be happy again. However, with time, the pain usually fades.

However, sometimes we don’t take the time to heal properly after a break-up. And instead of moving on, we enter a new relationship as a way of coping with our pain. This is a clear sign of rebounding, and it often leads to more heartache in the end.
