Just wondering what everyone thinks of rebound relationships? Can they work? Has anyone ever had one last a long time?

I have had my own rebound relationships. I broke up with my ex and within 2 weeks I got another bf. Well it lasted 4 years but we just broke up a few weeks ago. As I look back at all the problems in that relationship it was because I never gave myself time to heal from the first one. I carried alot of baggage with me and I ruined alot of things because of that. I didnt see it then but as I look back now I wish I would have gave myself time to heal. Now I'm just going to concentrate on myself and once I'm happy with myself I know I can be happy with someone else.
