Hey Mark! (stranger!)
I think it was a big of a rebound (not because i wanted it to be a rebound... but just because there was an emotional void that needed to be filled from my breakup with my bf of 2 years). i felt alone and insecure and pretty much replaced my ex with this new guy (which is obviously an unfair thing to do). i'm still really new at this breakup stuff and am learning as i go. trial and error i suppose
