This is entirely subjective. They do and they don't. Most will fail but will have given a person their self-esteem back after having left their last relationship, but we can't always tell the future on this one.

Possible is you do fall in love with that rebound person at the end then it might just work out. But if you are just a rebound and nothing else then nope it will not.

Rebound relationships are typically made to fill the void of the old one. I've never had a rebound relationship, but based off of what they were like for my friends, I would think that it is highly unlikely that they will go anywhere meaningful.

It depends on how forgiving you are, and whether you're ready to accept each other again despite all the differences and setbacks you've had in your previous relationships.

I personally think that if your going to go out with someone is because you have feelings for that person and because you want to be with it because of how he/she is I don't see it fair that u use someone else and play around with there heart just to get someone else from your mind and to distract yourself tbh I don't know of they work but from my point of view I don't think so but everyone is different it's ok to have different opinions

It can't be defined for one person. It is subjective. Where a relationship that forms out of a rebound might work for some, it may not work for others.

It's very possible! Recognizing where a relationship went wrong and building on the past problem means dedication! However, not learning from the mistakes can just lead to another downfall.

Sometimes, but the thing about rebounds are you're usually really sensitive and looking for the feelings you once had. You deceive yourself this is what you want and fall way to fast without taking the time to get to know them.
Rebound relationships work if you think of it as pursuing a normal relationship and going slow like you would there. Reserving your feelings to make sure this is what you want is best in my opinion.
