    =================
    Rebound relationships can really complicate a person's life more than need be. Yet we live in interesting times when our dating world is moving faster and faster. Smart phones and dating apps make us date more and more, leaving us little to no time to actually process and handle the breakups we go through.
    As a result, many of us are ending up in rebound relationships that are causing us to act in predictable yet disfunctional ways.
    So is it a rebound or the real thing? How are you supposed to even know...?
    In this video I'll give you some advice and ways to know if you're dealing with a rebound relationship or whether someone you know is going through a rebound relationship.
    We'll be covering signs to look out for that may indicate a rebound relationship, and we'll also address what you can do if you find yourself in a rebound relationship and you actually want it to work out.
    Rebound relationships have a very bad track record, and for good reason, but not all rebound relationships fail. Some can and do work out, so we'll also address how to make your rebound relationship work so that, like alchemists we can turn a rebound relationship into the real thing.
    And if you are interested in learning more about creating great relationships by building the right mindset and emotional resilience, then check out our free class over at: modernlove.life/class

    I’m a person who takes forever to start a new thing,I work on myself and focus on being better,I don’t do rebound I’m like when you met me I was single enjoying life and still I’m gonna enjoy this life.don’t loose yourself in a relationship,don’t let it define who you’re.if you can’t love yourself you’ll jump from one person to another,your partner is not supposed to fulfill you

    To me every rebound relationship is real, because you should not allow them back or worry about them coming back. Think about how bad they did you and never forget. I know it hurts, because it happened to me and I think about it still. However with how bad she did me I couldn’t even see her as a booty call.

    My gf broke up with me 4 months ago. After 2 months of breakup she started dating another guy. This is the 4th time she has gone to a relationship and swiftly too. She used to say all the mean things about her exes when I was with her. Then I realized she is now saying all the mean things about me to her new boyfriend too. After watching this video I realized that she never got the reflection she wanted to get over a breakup. She never gave time to heal up the wounds. That's why she used to seek and expect so many things from me and when she found that she is not getting it, she immediately starts complaining about me to everyone. At the end of the day, no relationship is perfect. It takes a lot of patience and hard work to maintain a relationship. Rebound is not the solution. Patience is!

    I got 3 signs of rebound relationship of my ex.
    The displacement, she’s dating similar to my profession and the fifth which is she parade him to social media 2 weeks before we got separated. So its 60-70% its likely to be a rebound. But i want her back. I know i did things to make her self pity, took her for granted most of the times but i only did that because of my work, anxiety and sometimes arguements. I shouldve been there for her when she needed me the most. Hope things will be better soon. I still love her and missed her so much. 😢

  • @QUINTUSMAXIMUS
    @QUINTUSMAXIMUS 2 роки тому +4

    I think mine is because she wanted the new man to be somewhat similar to me. That's often a big sign. Plus, there was basically so little time between us and him. I know she still cares about me a lot. I think it bothers her ex, but I may date someone in a few weeks.

    Broke up with me said I didn't listen etc.but had the kindest heart she's ever met. Lol Said other guy was a friend, said been friends with him for years. 2 days later they posted there in a relationship on Facebook and she's moving across country. Bunch of sexual comments posted. I told her I'm not interested in being just friends and if she changes her mind to let me know. Said she hates this no friends thing but she said she'll obey my wishes. I then blocked my fb from her. To painfull to see there flirtation. He seems kind of the opposite of me. She's messaged some hows the dog type things lol but I haven't responded. Just trying to be strong.

But the second week she told me she found someone already which just happened to be my friend . She told she wants to still be friends which I said yeah and it was hard for a month but this month I'm doing a lot more better improving my life, my family, career just focusing on my self healing. Well recently she has been bringing up a lot of are a past relationship and I'm just confused on what is happening here?

My ex also tell me that he really love his new girlfriend ,but he still hang out having trip with me and cheat on her, can i know is it they are rebound relationship ? And my chances for getting back is it too low now? He tell me he don't want delete or block me and he say he want talk to me and contact me , we broke up already 5 month on this year January, but i contacted back with him February until now, during the period that we broke up we still meet each others few time. He get his new gf on April , is the fourth month that we break up, but he didn't tell me about his girlfriend , he still text me regularly most of the time and still plan the trip with me together. They are already two months now is it a rebound relationship or real relationship? They are colleagues and can meet every day and I'm long distance with my ex, yesterday my ex send to me this text
    " I'm sorry for lying and not telling you about my gf earlier. Becoz of this, our trip become bad mood and not happy and we didn't get enough sleep last night. I admit that I was wrong for hiding it and not telling the truth. Because of that I feel so ashamed and embarrassed of myself that I can't even look at you straight anymore. That's why I keep closing my face with the blanket. I just felt that I always hurt your feelings and make you sad and say alot of bad things to you. You don't deserve to be treated like this and you deserve so much more better than this. The worse part is when you started comparing yourself with my gf and feeling like you are not eligible or that she is more perfect than you. She is not perfect or better than you. You have your own good things and bad things. I'm sorry that I made things so complicated now and make your heart pain. I hope over time you will feel better and move on with someone who can treat you better the way you deserve. Even though all these things happened, I just wanna say that I really enjoyed this trip with you. I was happy to have a nice dinner with you and spend time at the lost world. I definitely did not regret going for this trip with you. I know I got work quite alot during the trip and thanks for being understanding. Thanks also for spending some of your time and accompanying me for these few days and sorry again for hurting you. [Joyful][Joyful][Joyful]"
    What does his Mean? Does i have any hope nows? And he and his girlfriend is it rebound relationship or real relationship ? And what should i do now, should i be friend with him ? He tell me he hide his girlfriend without telling me, coz he scare i won't talk to him anymore , he scared he will lost me after this, that's why he hide from me, so through the signal that i mention is it rebound or real?

He hasn’t spoken to me since Jan 2 he told me we were never getting back together.

    I am not sure if I was in a rebound relationship or not. I met a guy around 6 months ago and I found out he was on break with his ex girlfriend. I didn't know that until one month being with them. After that we had already been super emotionally close and I never felt this way before with anyone else. He said he felt the same way about me. He broke up with his ex girlfriend because I said I don't want to be in a triangle with him any longer.. i found out after he was still talking to her. I know for a fact he doesn't love her because we have mutual friends and he has vehemently stated he has no attraction towards her. Our relationship got really messy as quick as we got together. we tried making it work but i feel like he just wasn't ready after 7 years with his ex. Now we are broken off for good but I miss him every day.. our friends tell me that he misses me too and that he's struggling with his life in general but also that his ex wants to move to our city although they are not dating and he doesn't want her to come here. I feel like we had something special but theres so many circumstances that make it nearly impossible... do you think theres any chance?

      Once one bits then you leave the job and go straight to the new one.

    Hi Clay, Is it a rebound if he went back to his ex? We were together for 2 years and she guilted him back when she found out about me (they have kids). I never thought it would last as he was very in love with me and I don’t believe guilt is sustainable and she’s incredibly controlling. However it has been a year now:(. I finally had to go into no contact because he writes and then disappears again. Can you offer clarity?

    • @ClayAndrews

      Hi Emily, Maybe the best question to ask here is if he had moved on 100% from his ex. If yes, he may be rebounding especially if the reason for going back with the other person is out of guilt.

  • @keylanicanton5574
    @keylanicanton5574 4 роки тому +2

    So me and my ex were together since high school. In high school we've stayed for 7 months then grew apart 3 years later. On June 2019 we got back together and lasted five months. On October 31st he admitted to cheating. Then it gotten to the point to where he had to choose. He chose her over me and us with her. He broke up with me in November and got together with her days later around that time. They have now been together for 4 months however I'm pregnant and it's by another dude. When I told my ex he says he wants to be involved since my child's father decided to not be there. While he is in this relationship with the girl he cheated on me with, everyday my ex constantly calls to check up on me and my unborn child. Does my ex want me back? Does he feel guilty? And does he have some sort of feelings for me? My ex and his rebound lives in the exact same neighborhood. Not only that but she no longer wants to have intercourse with him anymore. And yet they're trying to figure out if they're going to last or not.

    My ex bf left me for someone else and they are now dating. He started to text and ask me for a phone call recently and asked everything about how I was doing. But he vaguely told me what he has been up to and did not mention the other girl. He said he wanted to hear my voice and I see it as a mixed message. He doesn’t go into how he’s doing with dating. I use to be a jealous person. But I told him I hope things go well for him and the girl (through text message and I was actually sad when texting this...). Why wouldn’t he tell me about how he is doing with that girl?? Even after I shared my dating stories. Thank you!

      Hi Jennifer, I'm sorry to hear about what happened and we hope that you are holding on well. We have to understand and respect the other person's choice when it comes to sharing their personal lives. It doesn't mean that we are comfortable sharing information about our dating life, it will go the same for the. Others would rather keep things in private and for themselves. And remember, since both of you are not in a relationship, we can't demand him to share personal information regarding his personal activities. We just have to welcome whatever they are comfortable sharing with us. All the best.

    Hi Clay.
    My ex broke up with me 2 months ago after 4 years, saying that he still loved me, that he wanted to be alone, that he may be making a mistake. He added it wasn't for other girls. And he's now sort of dating another girl but I can't figure out if it's a rebond or if it's a real relationship starting.
    I'm 26, he's 27 and this girl is 16. They started talking during the last month of our relationship and he never said he had a girlfriend, saying that his profil picture and the status on facebook was enough. So he didn't talk about me until the break up, only mentioning it (those words). When he talked to me about this girl, he insisted on the fact that she's not jealous at all and absolutely don't care about our relationship (I was madly jealous). Then he said that her mom really appreciate him (he never met mine and that was one of the causes of our arguments). But he also told me that they don't get to see often, mostly talking and flirting by messages. They seems to laugh a lot, tagging themselves on funny post like we used to do. Plus, the girl looks like a younger me.
    Another detail (is it one?) : we used to watch a lot of films at night and he told me two weeks ago that he sometimes thinks about it.
    What do you think ? Does it look like a rebond to you or could it be the start of a real relationship ?
    PS : I'm french sooo forgive my english !

      Let's say she and her ex-husband had a history and she may feel comfortable being with him. When it comes to chances of getting back together, it would really depend on the changes that you will bring to the "new" dynamics of the relationship and the work/commitment that you are willing to put into it.

    So my ex and I were together 9 years we broke up in mid November last year by December he had moved in with new girlfriend Fully moved in, she also just came out of a relationship at the end of November beginning of December.. there saying I love you and are acting as if they have been together for years, talking about marriage and kids already.. she is the complete opposite of me. Even down to taking her to all the family events as if she has been there not me.
    They now work together, live together and are always in each other’s face.
    I do hope them the best and they can work on themselves and make it last as it effects not only them but the children his and hers involved..
    At what point does it no longer become a rebound is there a time limit or does it have to wait until they deal with there emotions??

    • @ClayAndrews
      @ClayAndrews  5 років тому +2

      In order for a rebound relationship to "work" the two people involved need to address their emotions from the past and learn how to appreciate each other for who they actually are (rather than who they are not or for the fantasy of "being in a relationship"). This can be difficult since you are discovering who someone is and working through emotional issues after the relationship is already resembling a relationship with a higher level of commitment, which is why rebound relationships have such a poor track record. But if a couple can successfully do this, then the relationship stops being a "rebound" and becomes a relationship with a more normal dynamic.

Then she ended it on me and said she cannot commit to a relationship coz she was struggiling with her dads health. Within 3-4 weeks she was seeing someone who was her friend she knew for about a month before breaking up. Her dad passed away and vented to me a lot and came to me to help her, she said she felt like I understand her and stuff but she feels numb.

      If you cheated on her, you have to let her go and experience the new relationship in its entirety. As much as it kills you, consider it your sentence for cheating on her. Go no contact and pretend she doesn't exist. It's likely that relationship is past the honeymoon phase by now. It sounds pretty certain she will contact you again since you are so close with her dad and family. But you have to let her be with this other guy until it ends. SHE has to choose to come back to you after she feels like she can trust you. You will inspire trust by backing off and going no contact. What the update on your situation?

I lived with her. I’m 12 years younger. I still love this woman. But I had to leave and go home. She came and visited. We tried to have a baby. But then she went home. For 8 months I tried to get back to her. Stayed in contact daily. Then no contact for about 40 days. Then started talking again. Things went well for a couple weeks. Then she flipped. This went on for a couple more months. Then she got nostalgic. I took that as she wanted to work things out. She says she still loves me. Then she ghosted. So that pissed me off. Told her I was tired of her uncertainty. Now suddenly she says she’s seeing someone. So unfair when I would have given this woman the world. I wish she knew what she wanted. Maybe she will be back. Or maybe not. I dunno at this point. We’ve been through so much. And all I have wanted was her.

    hey clay, my ex bf and i broke up about a month ago, we dated for 15 months. he said he lost feelings and he has a lot going on right now.
    anyways my ex has been hanging out with this new girl. they were friends when we were dating, she is a big flirt so she would always flirt with him when we were dating. i never really cared because i knew she flirted with everyone and i trusted my ex that he wouldn’t do that to me. when she would flirt with him we would always make jokes about it, and he told me when we broke up that he thinks she’s annoying and would never date her. he told his friends a couple days ago that he likes her, his friends said it was a bad idea to date her. he then dropped all his friends for this girl. they also tried to hide that they were hanging out from everyone. and he started dating me right after his other ex girlfriend (they dated for 9 months). he’s not giving any signs that he misses me or anything. do you think he’s just trying to replace me with this girl? to fill an empty space in his life? i’m don’t know if this is a rebound or not, do u think you could help me out?

    That’s so crazy!!! The new wife is so similar to me it creeped me out when she wanted to be friends and everything. She’s younger which I don’t care about cuz I look younger than my age but other than that she has so much in common with me it’s weird. Also he tried for 3 months ,while being with her and her getting pregnant, to hook up with me. I don’t really care if he has found something real but we have kids and now he has one on the way and already shows signs he puts his new family over our boys. He doesn’t even think she should pay child support when he only gets them 2 days out the week.

      It can indeed be challenging to understand someone's thoughts and feelings when they don't openly communicate about them. In such situations, it's essential to focus on observing their actions and behaviors, as they often provide clues about their emotional state. Pay attention to how they interact with you and others, their body language, and the consistency of their actions over time. While direct communication is ideal for clarity, sometimes people express themselves differently. Being patient, observant, and open to listening when they do choose to share can help foster understanding and strengthen the relationship.

    So my ex and I broke up almost two months ago bc he said I was controlling which I wasn’t but maybe in his eyes I was and we shared friends and after the split a “friend” that was in the group said I was controlling saying I didn’t let him hang out with his friends but that is not true. I was neglected as a child my mom never gave me attention or love so it made me feel unloved so when my ex would hang out with friends I would get bummed out bc when I would text my “friends” they wouldn’t answer and if they did it would e like a half and hour later. Well anyways I would also have mood swings very often bc of my hormones not being leveled out and my ex and I didn’t know that was what it was until my stepmom pointed it out after the split. Also my ex has really bad anxiety and would throw up and cry bc of it but it never was disrespectful towards him and I always told him I’m not going anywhere and I comforted him when he would get anxiety also in the relationship he only came to my house twice and we were together for nine months bc the first time he ever came to my house he threw up and the other time I asked him if he wanted to come inside for a bit when he dropped me off food he threw up but I was there for him asking if he needed anything. We would get into silly little disagreements bc of my mood swings but at the end of the day we were fine. My ex would always ask for my advice on getting help for his anxiety but would never do it and it did get upsetting at times bc I didn’t wanna see him suffer and he would cry bc he was scared of getting help and I was there for him to calm him and tell him that everything would be okay and that I would be there every step of the way. He now has a new girlfriend who is best friend with one of the girls in the group I was in and idk if i should go up to him and try to talk to him without bringing up the girl. I haven’t talked to him in 3 weeks and I am blocked on everything bc of my reaction after the split. I now know how I was and I am getting help for my mood swings. Idk if this new girl is a rebound or a real thing he also never told me I was controlling or hurting him during the relationship

      It sounds like you have BPD.
      I’m pretty sure my ex had BPD as well and it sounds a lot like what she was like.
      She had really bad mood swings, like explosive anger and then constant sobbing. And she was very controlling of me, like thinking I was always cheating on her when I was around girls. She’d get mad when I didn’t text back fast enough and I had been around people that noticed this and they started calling her “crazy.”
      She had been emotionally abused and neglected her whole life by her mom and it’d even happen in front of me when we would be over at her parents house. This type of abuse from a narcissistic parent can trigger BPD, which is the fear of abandonment, fear of loneliness, fear of rejection from someone you love, emotional unstableness (like wild moodswings), suicidal thoughts, dissociativeness (blacking out during swings), and always being insecure or seeking validation.
      BPD can ruin relationships because they often get very clingy and the explosive anger problems is extreme emotional abuse (she would put me down or get mad at me when I’d help cook, but then 5 mins later she LOVED how it tasted and says she loves cooking with me, so the mood swing was hard to deal with). It was the sole reason I was breaking up with her all the time. The final breakup happened and she found someone within a week, which is fine because I put her through a lot and she put me through a lot, but it’s obviously a rebound and she hasn’t gotten help for her issues, so it’ll just persist in this new relationship.
      I think If you’re really concerned you should seek help because what you explained sounds like BPD, or could be something else. As for your relationship, reaching out and having someone who is there for you to help you with your problems will make things a lot easier. But you also need to learn to love yourself and heal first!

      Hi Calvin, sex doesn't have to be a sign of a rebound. It depends on if it about the connection with that individual. Since you knew each other for a long time before you got together, then it makes sense that you wouldn't need to go through the whole "getting to know you" phase.
