rebound guy

A guy who thinks he's gotten lucky since an attractive girl with a low self esteem decides to be with him. In reality, the girl is only dating him because she's trying get over another guy (A.K.A. she's "on the rebound"). The opposite/converse of this would be a rebound chick.

Cynical Friend 1: What the hell does she see in him? She's way out of his league.
Cynical Friend 2: Oh, it's nothing serious. She's just trying to get over her last breakup. To her, he's just a disposable rebound guy.
