Hi peeps,...weve all been there otherwise we wouldnt be on here?.
Do you think that going headlong into another relationship is wise? or would you advocate a period of being alone for a while before a new relationship?. My opinion on this is we all need a healing time, what do you think?wave

I think a lot of it depends on the duration of the relationship,
I tend to get over short ones fairly quick and can jump back in the game again, but long ones take longer to put behind you...JMO

I do not think it is wise for anyone to indulge in 'rebound relationships'. Someone will always get hurt, unless those involved have realised it's just a bit of fun and not going anywhere.

This is an odd question from you EE?, but yes, I agree, healing time is important.

Think it can depend on who ended the relationship and why.

Personally after the end of my last relationship I needed time, I thought I was ok and dated and then realize I wasn't, also think there is a danger you can hurt others without meaning to. bouquet

i give myself a year to be single again and recover before jumping into another relationship. Rebound relationships are unfair.

I will go into relationship when I will have found the right man for me. Which may or may not happen. dunno Don't think it is a good idea just to jump on somebody without knowing why you are doing it. What is a gain? There may be only another loss.

No offence EE, it's just that you've always seemed very 'grounded' to me, so this was an out of character question.

Interesting, women want healing time and men want to jump right back in the water....There is a reason they call them rebound relationships and when u have not had time to heal that is usually what happens...Rebound.....take some time, and don't make the new mate pay for past sins...scold

I've done it too and it never seems to work..Rushing into a relationship is just a bad idea anyways..
I believe a person should take some time out and figure out what it is they want and dont want along with some time to heal.

And from thy slender store two loaves alone to thee are left
Sell one, and with the dole
Buy hyacinths to feed thy soul"

LOL...Oh its not in relation to me Louise, I have been on my own for some years, but I know of two people who have not really liked being alone after their breakups and are with the new folk as an ego boost. I personally think we all need at least a year to find ourselves after a breakup with a long time partner..yay

englishelegance: Well Jan, one of the people I know was in fact on the rebound and has actually moved in with the new person but is not 100% happy.


Yes I understand that, but I´m saying go and have a relationship or two....or three.... instead of sitting alone and bewailing the whys and wherefores, not to replace the old failed one, or move in and be serious. That most probably won´t work in all reality.
