    Rebound relationships usally never work because the heartbroken person (rebounder) is mostly concerned with healing themself. The rebounder will find anybody who they are somewhat attracted to just to help them get over their grief. Once the rebounder is healed, he or she usually wants to start fresh with somebody new who they are much more attracted to and who knows little about them.

    It should also be noted that a rebounder who is still in love may also seek somebody new as a way to make their former lover jealous. Once the former lover shows a renewed interest in the relationship, the rebounder almost always dumps the new lover.

    • haha, two comments in a row :) This is the exact reason why I don't want to jump into a relationship after being dumped only 2 months ago. I couldn't live with myself if I hurt someone the way I was hurt.
