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!
