My crush talks too much about his ex...

They were like the most popular couple in college, and people keep throwing gossips and lies about their breakup.
So I get why he'd like to clarify stuff.
But he has been going on about how toxic she is and how it was shit for 2 hours.
( I'd rather be talking to him rather than bored to death with this breakup story over and over again, and relationship stories )
They were a thing for 3 years, and broke up like 6 months ago...

Like now I'm genuinely scared...He says he is interested in me and stuff...But I don't wanna be a rebound...

I was with my ex for 3 years and it took me a lot longer than 6 months to get over it. Just saying. 6 months later even if I was genuinely interested in somebody else it would have been hard to prevent myself from talking about her. I'm not the type to use a rebound because it's too close to addictive behavior and I'm not an addict and don't ever want to become one. But god help me I wouldn't have been able to shut up about her.

Thankfully those days are a distant memory. I barely remember a god damn thing about her or what it felt like.

it took me at least 2 years to recover.
