Are You a Rebound Queen? How To Tell If You’re Moving Too Fast…

You Date The First Guy Who Asks You Out

When you’re fresh out of a relationship, it may be hard to be by yourself. Lonely nights leave you feeling restless, and while you may not miss your ex, you might miss the feeling of being wanted or in love.  So in order to get that good-loving-feeling back, you find yourself drawn to the first man – ANY man – who shows you some attention. Don’t fall into that trap. Realize that feelings of loneliness are natural…and temporary. Don’t date just anyone just so you’ll feel whole again. Give it some time and don’t sell yourself short. The loneliness will pass.

Also, some women date the first man who comes along as a way to subconsciously “get back” at her ex. If you find yourself with someone who you normally wouldn’t give the time of day to – or you date a friend or an enemy of your ex, then you’re “revenge dating” – not dating because you’re over your ex. While it may feel good at the time, your “I’ll show you I’m still hot” attitude will wear off, and he might not even care. You’re just wasting your time.
