Rebound dating (How do you girls do it)
One thing I've seen when some girlfriends have returned from NC - and they do come back if you don't run them down, or run them off - is that is that they often date in the interim.
Well, it's a free country. And a few months is a few months... And we're not married -
Still, when I break up with a girl I take a while to be ready for someone new.
But... It seems that a method of cheering up/self-esteem often includes accepting a dinner date and conversation not long after a break. And in some cases "more"... even if it means nothing. And then they come back when they just want what we had... Surprise. Sometimes I welcome a girl back.
Sometimes not.
*If I'm the breaker, I just don't come back :-)
So, how does a woman compartmentalize this? Be intimate and date, while still in love with someone else?
How can it be done without passion?
What function does it serve?
