Is it okay to date a rebound?

Scientists say no. New research suggests that rebound relationships are remarkably healthy when executed correctly. Taking time between relationships to move on isnt necessary for emotional stability. However, one should still approach the dating scene with caution.

What happens when you date a rebound?

A rebound relationship can occur when someone is dating a new person without being entirely over their ex. Those in a rebound relationship may feel like their relationship is moving very fast or their partner isnt committing to plans.

Should you date someone not over their ex?
