Do you think it's possible for Narcissists (particularly female ones) to be prone to having rebound relationships fairly quickly after ending a relationship?

I ask as I've just heard from a friend that he spotted her profile on a dating site only one month since we split up.

I think rebound relationships depend on the individual. Also, I would say that 1 month later isn't exactly a "rebound". Maybe a day or a week after breaking up, but one month is long enough to decide if you're ready for another relationship. Everyone moves on at a different pace. I would encourage you not to dwell too much on what your ex is up to.

Yes, I don't care what my ex is up to but it did at the back of my mind get me wondering.

Thanks for answering.

Have you been seeing a therapist? I highly recommend it as you continue worrying about your ex and it would prevent you from moving on.

Starting dating quickly after break up doesn't always mean it's rebound. If she was unhappy in relationship with you and she knows what she wants, getting out there might not be a rebound at all. Plus I'd be careful labeling and diagnosing people (unless she has official diagnosis)

I have been following your story, you are lucky to be rid of her, she was emotionally abusing you.

Be glad she is looking again because you don't want her to look to hurt you anymore for leaving her.

I agree.

It's funny that as time goes on, do I begin to see exactly how I was used and manipulated by my ex.

I didn't see it at first but subtly as time went on I became aware of it and everyone here has been a star and supportive.

Thank you. I do feel more 'free' now that I am no longer with her.
