About a month ago, my Ex and I broke up to see what else was out there. I’m still pretty hurt from it, especially since she told me shes "hanging out" with another guy, who she says is just someone fun and completely different than her normal type. She says she still misses me and that she hasn’t moved on, only that hes a nice guy. If you ask me it sounds like the classic rebound guy… completely different from me and is helping her fill my void.

I called her last week and told her its too hard for me to be her friend, when I still have a tremendous amount of feelings for her. She said if thats what I needed to do then alright, but that she really does want me in her life because im still her best friend. I told her too bad, it was obvious she had moved on in only a matter or a week or two.

Im just curious why rebound relationships involve someone completely different than the last partner. I have my college degree, a good solid job and am only 23 years old. Now shes interested in a 26 year old police man who is covered in tattoos and almost bald. Ladies help me out?
The relationship was for 2+ years. We had a great relationship until the stress of her life caused some fights, but nothing major. The last month was full of highs and lows
