Am I just a rebound for my ex?

Question - (20 October 2009) 3 Answers - (Newest, 21 October 2009)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

.... About six months ago, my boyfriend broke up with me (which took a while to get over) to start going out with my ex best friend. But my ex and I still stayed close friends, and we sometimes refer to ourselves as 'brother and sister'. But today, I was at school, talking to his best friends (theyre my best friends too). We were just talking about God-Knows-What when my ex (let's call him X) walks by. Out of nowhere, one of my friends I was talking to reached out and grabbed 'X' by the hood of his sweater and yanked him over so that he was right in front of me.

"Go ahead," my friend said. Then, X looks at me and says:

"Will you go out with me again?"

What do I say? I told him I'll think about it, but I just don't know.

Yes I like him too, but heres the thing: the girl he left me for dumped him just three days ago, so of course I think Im just a rebound...

What do I do??

Oh sweetie I would definetely tell him to f**k off. As much as you like him just remember what he did to you. He left you for your ex best friend and just because she broke up with him he wants you back. It doesn't take a genius to figure this out but sorry, you are a rebound.

I'm sure you'll find someone else way better than him and I'm sure your better off without him. Say no trust me it's the best thing you can do. If you wanna get hurt again say yes but if not then say no. Good Luck hun =]

Starlights agony auntYour right its pretty soon for him to try and get another relationship on track.

You should speak to him and ask him if he feels your a rebound? it could be your not, or it could be you are.

You wont know unless you ask him as he has the answer to this.

Until then dont pursue this or you could end up getting hurt again if this is a rebound relationship. Speak to him and take it from there as you do like him.

Goodluck!

Yes you are the rebound. He hurt you to be with an ex best friend of yours, so you can't really trust him anyway. Don't let him use you. Say no.
