The Rebound Trip

We have all heard of the “rebound relationship”. If we haven’t had one ourselves, we surely have friends who rushed into one. Vulnerable in the aftermath of a break up, sometimes we are tempted to run straight into the arms of another. Occasionally, this can work out, but often it can cause even more confusion and angst - there has not been enough time to grieve the former relationship, to gain closure or simply room to breathe. It is little wonder, in an age of affordable travel, and adventure as the “new normal”, that rebound relationships are being overtaken by another phenomenon: the “rebound trip”.
