The dreaded / beloved Rebound Guy.
There's this saying in the Cheeky community; "The best way to get over someone is to get under someone else."
Let's raise a toast to "having been there," because most of us have. The Bunny's here to lend some insight and offer an even better idea by flipping that bitch over. In our opinion, the best way to get under someone is to get over someone else.
The idea behind the original theory is simple... a heartbroken person will forget their woes by getting off with a shiny new person. But this idea carries with it many flaws. First, this new candidate is rarely 'shiny' and more often 'grody' and 'skeevy.' They often take the form of a one-night stand that leaves the heartbroken party feeling even lower than before. Though there is an immediate sense of "Ha! I showed you [insert your Ex's name here]," the satisfaction is fleeting.
The Bunny believes that this method of getting over by getting under aims to work towards a long-term goal of finding someone else, someone better, someone special. In which case, does it not make sense to hold off, get over your Ex on your own and maintain clarity and dignity (to the best of your ability...a few bumps in the road are inevitable). This improves the odds of getting under someone exceptional, someone worthy. And the best part - once you get there, you are likely to stay there, and actually enjoy it.
So The Bunny's verdict - don't try to get under any one until you are over your Ex if you are hoping to turn it into anything but a rebound.
