Say for instance, you’re a woman that just got out of serious relationship with a guy whom they thought they may marry. Only a few short weeks later the woman sees a guy from her past that she has known for the last 10 years, whom she’s never been attracted to and hasn’t seen in quite some time. Broken hearted and angry that her previous relationship has failed, the woman and the guy from her past begin dating quite heavily shortly thereafter, and enter into a relationship that would be considered a rebound relationship by definition.
Why are relationships, similar to this example, destined to fail? What makes these relationships typically fail? What makes these relationships typically work initially and then fail? Is it sex, entertainment, and distraction? Is it possible for a woman to shut down herself emotionally to her previous relationship and move on successfully so soon? If so, how? If a relationship built like this was to be successful and not considered a rebound, after how much time would have to pass in order to say it’s no longer a rebound and is now legitimate? When’s the first reality check for relationships built like? Lastly, what has to happen in order to legitimatize a relationship where the woman is on the rebound?
Thanks!

I’ve been married almost 10 years to a woman I love. recently she told me she doesn’t love me. Never really has. Not the way a woman should love her man. Guess I was blind. Never saw it that way. Frankly, I don’t believe "every" word.
But I’ve been doing my best to make her feel special and bring back that loving feeling.
She gets back rubs and foot massages 3-4 times per week. I make dinner more frequently, clean the house, put the dishes away, do laundry, try to appear positive and treat her to small things often.
I love her more than life itself. Just looking for some other things.
Let’s hear your best. Money’s a little tight right now so no extravagant trips/jewelry.

I got dumped by email this morning – you’d think after a year he’d at least have the courtesy of telling me in person considering we were together all weekend. I haven’t had my heart ripped out like this in almost 10 years.
Normally I’d make a list of all the negatives about that person, but with him, there really were no negatives. This came completely out of left field – no fights, no affairs, no disagreements. We had so much in common, felt the same way about things, even finished each other’s sentences. We were planning summer holidays together on Saturday and everything was good. Then this morning I get an email that he’s not in love with me.
I’ve been home crying non-stop all day and don’t know how I’m going to make it to work tomorrow.
So how do you deal with breakups like this?

Every since my divorce I am having a very hard time getting back into the swing of things. I have been on 6 dates now and most of them seem to feel the need to pressure for sex. Even guys who say from the beginning it is not about sex, always seem to pressure for sex right away. I was married 10 years. I was faithful and he was not. I do not have a casual mentality about sex but the rest of the world seems to. Unfortunately I was built very curvy and although I am 38, I can pass for 28. Men my age will not even talk to me and younger men expect sex. Where can I meet just nice guys who are not against taking time to get to know each other. I am trying to avois disease here. Help.
