Working with the Rebound Time to Win Your Ex Back – Your Second Shot

Among all the other turmoil that happens in your life it can be quite disconcerting to see your ex with someone else.  Everything you worked for during your separation feels like it was all a waste of time because he’s already moved on. You might start feeling hopeless and that you’re worthless because he doesn’t care about you anymore.  Don’t let these feelings discourage you.

The truth is that you don’t know all of that for sure. If you’ve worked hard to change yourself so you can win your ex back, there is no reason to feel everything is ruined because you see your ex with someone else. It is very likely that what you are seeing is a rebound relationship. Rarely does one person get into a serious relationship immediately (or within a month’s time) after a breakup. 

This is great news for you if you’re still interested in getting your ex back. This shows you a few things about your ex: he’s ready to start thinking about getting into a relationship again, he’s trying to boost up his self-confidence again and he’s most likely showing he’s still interested in what he had with you. Rebound relationships are what make a person reconnect with being comfortable with the dating scene and the feelings that come from dating.

One of the main reasons rebound relationships don’t work is because the person on the rebound still cares and loves his/her ex.  It’s hard to start a new relationship with a different person when those feelings for you are still hanging around. The trick to dealing with a rebound relationship is to support your ex’s decision to see other people and try to fit yourself into the equation of having him start seeing you again.  Starting afresh will give you both a new zeal that could make you both work harder at the second shot.
