So here's my theory. The Internet is to blame for the increase in rebound relationships. Hear me out. Back in the day, a person would go through a break up and the process of jumping into a rebound relationship took more time. It involved hitting a few bars, shaking the bootie at a few clubs, going through the Rolodex of exes and past gentleman callers. Fast forward to the present and all it takes for a recently broken up chick to seek solace in a quickie rebound relationship is an uploaded picture and a profile online. It is just too easy. Within a few hours, any decent looking girl can log on to said dating website and be welcomed with a flooded inbox of male prospects.
Speaking of which, that is exactly what I would be doing if I hadn't decided to start this blog! I'm on day three of my anti-rebounding new life and it feels great. When I finally do decide to go back on the dating scene, it'll be because I'm ready to meet somebody new and not because I'm looking to avoid the pain of a recent breakup.
