How do I know if I'm in love with my rebound or it's just leftover emotions from my ex?

You are probably not in love with him, and just have left over feelings. That’s how most rebounds are.
It typically takes quite a long time for someone in a rebound to develop actual feelings of love towards the person they dated to forget about their ex.

I've been with my rebound for almost a year. At first, I would still think about my ex truth be told. But now I feel like I've accepted/moved on from my ex, and have a deep appreciation for my rebound. I'm confused :/

As expected, you’re of course going to think about your ex in the beginning.
I think it’s possible you could love your rebound boyfriend, but do you see a future with him? Do you want him involved in your life long term?

It’s difficult to differentiate the feelings in this situation.

I feel like we have a couple hurdles to work through. If we do work through them, then yes I can see a future with him. My feelings for him are sometimes out of control, sometimes I feel like I hate him, other times like I love him intensely. I'm so confused 😭

Go find you EX with a “spring in your step and a smile on your face” the day after and see if the EX makes you tingle or twinge…. Not difficult

Why wasting time in thinking if you're in love or not. It's irrelevant. 😂

You literally call him a rebound. Not your boyfriend. That itself says a lot about how you see him. I feel bad for the dude honestly.

Rebounds always crash and burn

It's only convenience

If you have to wonder, then it ain't it.

It doesn’t sound like you are in love with him
