The phenomenon in which
two acquaintances/friends, both recently single after the dissolution of a long term relationship, become engaged in a purely sexual relationship. This must occur very shortly after the dissolution of
said long term relationship.
This phenomenon is quintessentially mutual and void of strategic action and time ordering of events beyond the fact that both of your past relationships ended around the same time. Put bluntly, you both become single and then
bam, one night you just start to
hook up.
Person
1: It was really strange. Last night I thought I heard
Adam leaving Jen's room.
Person 2: Ya that's kinda weird. They both just broke up with their ex's a couple weeks ago
Person
1: I think we're witnessing the MRS phenomenon
Person 2: Huh?
Person 1: Mutual-rebound-sex
