Is it just a rebound thing, or should I take a chance with my friend?

Question - (9 June 2006) 2 Answers - (Newest, 9 June 2006)
A female , anonymous writes:

Two weeks ago my boyfriend of two years dumped me. Although I still think I love him, I'm just not sure any more.

A week ago I met up with an acquaintance who I've known for about a year. However since we met up I've started having strong feelings for him.

Whenever I see him or talk him I get a rush of feelings. However seeing as I haven't long broken up with my boyfriend I'm not sure whether I should do anything about it.

Please help me. I just don't know what to do.

Lostandalone agony aunt Definitely a rebound. Its seems as if you are looking for a quick fix to fill that void in your life left empty by your ex. Don't rush it. Take time for yourself and be single for a while. You are not going to keel over if someone is not in your life. It can be difficult to distinguish the two but you need time to fully heal from this thing and who knows you could get back with your ex and you wouldn't want this hanging over your head. Good Luck.

A female reader, Dr Cupid United Kingdom +, writes (9 June 2006):

I think you are on the rebound. Two weeks is not very long if you have been in a two year relationship. If you do like this new person I think you should take it slow. The rush of feelings you have when you see this new person is probably a rush of alot of mixed emotions. Because you have just come out of a relationship you are very vulnerable so be cautious about jumping into something new straight away. Take each day as it comes at the moment because the chances are that you are still not out of the woods in terms of feelings for your ex.
