<human>: I hadn't wanted to believe our relationship was a rebound, but I think that, in retrospect, it was.  We were both out of relationships around the same time, hers had lasted longer than mine.  Since both of them ended on a downward slide instead of suddenly, I wanted to believe that we were both ready for something with each other.  But yesterday it basically came out that she really wasn't emotionally ready.

The difficult part is that I've never met someone more similar to me in the kinds of ways that I want (and she had said the same thing, and repeated it yesterday).  We work in the same field, have many of the same interests, the chemistry was great.

She's going to be away from town for the summer doing an internship (I'm just graduated from a grad program, she's earlier in the same program).  I work in the area, so will be here.  We're taking a few days to regroup right now, but I hope to maintain contact and she said the same thing.  We both enjoy each other's company (although I realize that once sex enters the equation, it's hard to put the genie back in the bottle).  My hope is that maybe in a few months we might have another chance of something working.  Not pushing anything here, but just... if we continue to hang out, and chemistry remains positive.

I realize this depends on her and me and how we handle things, and as much as anything else, I guess I'm wondering if it's possible to come back to someone and try again.  I would hate to lose this girl for good.

But maybe I'm just being an idiot here.  Relationships fail all the time, and people *always* want to imagine that they might be able to come back to them.  But does that ever happen?  I honestly don't know.

Give me a shortened version of the text
<bot>: Rebound relationship ended, we're still planning to spend time together.  Is it possible to rekindle something later on, especially after being separated for a few months?
