What to do if Your Ex is in a Rebound Relationship

By Antonio MacGynn

Is your ex partner in a rebound relationship? That's a relationship where your partner starts dating someone else in order to get over you. Rebound relationships keep people from dealing with the emotions of breaking up. They are used to help people move on from a real love.

f your ex partner is trying to deal with the loss of you, that means they loved you. And that is the primary key to mending your relationship. It doesn't matter who initiated the break up, whose fault it was, or why you broke up. What it does indicate is that feelings ran very deep. Most relationships that had true love can be put back together and saved.

If your ex is rebounding and you are a good guy, she is probably now with a bad boy. If you are a neat freak, he is probably with a slob. What this means is that your ex is actually focused on your relationship even when he or she is with someone else. And that's good news. Not only is the attention really on you, it gives you a chance to see what he or she is looking for.

f your ex is with someone your opposite, it means he or she was missing something in your relationship. You can use this time to improve yourself. The relationship your ex is in will not last long. As he spends time with the new girl, he'll see flaws in her. If she is with a guy opposite of you, she'll start missing qualities that attracted you to her in the first place. After a month or so with the new partner, you will start to be sorely missed.

Let her develop the idea that she misses the good things in the relationship. When shes ready to make a move, be magnanimous. Welcome her back graciously. Be a new and improved boyfriend, but dont do the chasing. Here are some specific steps to take when your ex is in a rebound relationship:

Dont make promises to change. You are who you are and thats who she fell in love with.

Dont make promises to change. You are who you are and thats who she fell in love with.

Dont make promises to change. You are who you are and thats who she fell in love with.

Dont apologize profusely. If you did something wrong, you can say youre sorry. But then move on. She knows the real reason she loves you.

Never, ever beg her to take you back.

A rebound relationship is not a reason to panic. It means your ex is trying to deal with losing you because they love you. Use the time to improve yourself. If you do this, you can get your ex back.
