Jumping Back in the Sack? The Pros and Cons Of Rebound Hook Ups

The Cons

1. Getting Attached

It’s only natural to want to avoid feeling lonely and depressed and if having rebound sex is just your way of getting out of a slump and having fun again, then great. But some just don’t know how to separate casual sex and having fun from falling in love. Make sure you know the difference. Do not get attached to the new guy if your heart can’t handle another breakup. If you’re actually “dating” and getting to know each other on a real level, not just a sexual one, then by the time you have sex it’ll mean something. If sufficient time has passed between your breakup and when you meet the new guy, the sex may not be rebound sex at all. But if it’s been less than three months and the interaction with the new guy is more intense than simply hooking up, you have the potential to find yourself dealing with another breakup before you’ve gotten over your old one.
