Do rebound relationships ever work?

Yes. You might not intend for your rebound to turn into anything serious, but you'll be surprised at how many times it happens.

It can work definitely, but the chance of that working is slim. But I realized most of the time it does not work because 1) One of them still may have feelings for their ex, and that means they are not giving their 100% feelings to you 2) They might be doing it to get rid of their loneliness, not because they "want you" but because they desperately "need you." A relationship should be based on honesty, trust, love and care... it should not be based on something as weak as "ok, do me a favour, help me get rid of my ex's thoughts." If you want a rebound relationship to work, make sure that you give your partner a lot of time to get over their ex, and ask them to be honest with you.

Yes and no. It depends on how you guys work together and how your relationship is overall. It doesn’t matter if you guys are a rebound relationship! If you make each other happy and healthy, stick with them!

I'm not too sure... From my personal experience, the rebound relationship I have had after a bad breakup did not work because I was in a state where I just wanted physical company, which I had mistaken for general attraction.

Rebound relationships often don't work because you're trying to cover a gaping wound with a band-aid. To quote Halsey, "If I close my eyes he looks just like you, but he'll never stay". Healing from a broken relationship is something that should be done naturally, rather than with another relationship.

No, if they didn't work the first time, why would they work the second time? There is always a reason why it isn't meant to be.

No, rebound relationships do not work. Rebound relationships are relationships that a person gets into immediately after a breakup. They do not give themselves enough time to heal from their past relationships before entering a new one. They are most likely to compare their past partner and their current partner.

It really depends on both persons, if they want it to work it will work for sure. They were already in relationship it means they love each other and if they rebounded it means they still want to work on that relationship which had issues. If all issues are sorted and both act maturely relationship can work for sure.

Relationships end for a reason. Rebounding a relationship is like re reading a book and expecting a different endings. There will be highs and lows but it will always end the same.

Rebound relationships never work. You're involving another person in your life to handle your dirty laundry. An emotional bell hop in lamens terms. It is not only unfair to the rebound but it does not solve the underlying problem of being lonely and grieving a major loss. A bond with someone is built on trust and love and affection and when that is broken it can leave you feeling lonely, broken and unable to feel happy. It may seem forever but it will pass eventually with help from friends and anonymous chat with people on 7 cups. But filling a void with another humans heart will not only hurt you in the future but you also thrust yourself into a relationship where you may not have anything in common or any shared interests or a deep understanding of each other. This ultimately ends up in another broken relationship. And now not only are you feeling lonely and sad and hurt and confused, hut now you formulate the idea that you're undesirable and many other emotions that will be harder to deal with. When you have your heart broken. Best to sweep up the pieces and break out the super glue. It takes time and effort to piece yourself back together but with someone to chat with, it can make the difference you need to make it through
