Question - (21 September 2007) 3 Answers - (Newest, 22 September 2007)
A male United Kingdom age 22-25, anonymous writes:

I want to see what everyone thinks about [me] getting involved with someone who is making an attempt to get over their ex and trying to move on with their life.

Do you wait till she has completely recovered? Or do you date to help them find a new meaning of love? (Assuming the break up was 6 months ago and both parties are interested in each other.)

Good ideas vs Bad ideas?

Thanks!

baby duck agony aunt'Rebound relationships' are not, by definition, the first relationship after a break up. That said, if she has not thoroughly processed the pain, confusion, etc from the last relationship, it is going to surface in a relationship with you. Perhaps you could continue developing a friendship and if it blossoms; great. If you get through the first wave of your crush and the attraction wanes, on either or both sides, than you still have a friendship and your hearts are intact. grin Not what you wanted to hear, was it?

leanne.od agony auntbad idea.

she'll be on the rebound still and may result in you feeling rejected if she decides it was a mistake, but what's to say she is interested in you? i think you need to be there for her but give her space, time and you'll know when she is ready to date again.

good luck

superbunny agony auntI think it's all a matter of opinion, really. If you're genuinely interested in this girl, then maybe just acting as a friend while she "recovers" from the break up before trying to move on to something a little more serious might help. :]

Sorry I can't be of more help, but I hope this has helped. :] x
