After the breakup, San Francisco native Kyle Keyser decided to try something unusual. 

Kyle Cather felt uneasy and unhappy after the one-and-two blows from the pandemic and the breakup with her boyfriend of 1.5 years. He decided to do something drastic. As Broke-Ass Stuart first reported, he printed "Want to Bounce" brochures and started distributing them in the town. 

"After feeling like st for a long time, I just decided that I don't want to feel like st anymore," said the San Francisco man. 

For several weeks, there has been an email in his draft, where he has been writing a manifesto containing everything he hopes for a future partner. 

Kyle Keyser's "Want to Rebound" brochure can be downloaded on his website.

"I was sitting on the Bay Bridge and it suddenly occurred to me that I should put it there," Cather said. "I didn't know what it meant at the time, except that I should turn it into a physical thing. This is how it was born."

At first he showed a tri-fold tape to a friend to laugh, and later turned it into a very detailed booklet. He began to leave copies of where he went: restaurants and bars around the church, Castro Pharmacies, grocery stores, waiting rooms, airplanes and even ATM machines.

What he is looking for is very specific-a "mutually pleasant bounce" and "real low risk", they will "travel, work remotely, implement our creative projects, and make us both in these annoying and difficult times" Focus on some things," wrote Keyser, who is currently studying screenwriting in graduate school. 

But at the same time, his standards are also very broad-his future rebound can be anywhere, even international, because Kaiser is a seasonal employee of the airline and can travel anywhere.

"I want to keep the pressure super low," Keyser explained. "...Let us have all the decorations of intimacy, friendship, and partnership, but understand that this is random and the timing is very strange. But if you are willing to take risks, I am willing to take risks."

Printing out photos of his face and leaving them near San Francisco is not the scary part of Keyser-it is bringing search to social media. You can now apply to be a Keyser rebounder on his own website, and he has also recorded his searches on TikTok. He even started sending out pamphlets to Tinder and Grindr competitions. 

"Before I started socializing, I distributed the brochure in three or four weeks because I was afraid of putting it there in a bigger way," he explained. "It's an interesting thing, but it's still an easy thing to hurt."

Now that Rebound Wanted is all over the Internet, some people may see it as a social media gimmick designed purely to attract followers. This is a hypothesis that Keyser understood but immediately rejected. 

He said: "I am trying to make my history and who I am transparent, and I am trying to be sincere in methods." "In a sense, this is a gimmick, but it is not without truth and truth. The starting point. Some people will like it, some people won’t like it. It’s good.”

I wrote a brochure to look for backlash. Interested in? Biological link. ##reboundwanted ##rebound ##housesitting ##flightbenefits ##creativeproject ##filmmaker

He admits that the benefit of this project is to satisfy him creatively, but its core is a genuine desire to meet someone — or at least, to free his heart from breaking up.

"In some ways, I have achieved success on a level because I created a small passion project that inflate like a balloon in my soul," Kaiser said. "It was put aside... a depressive cycle, it was put on hold the idea of ​​breaking up. So in this sense, I managed to feel better and did some interesting and creative things. The benefit is I met great people and talked to them, which I like to do."

He has received some replies. A person from Grindr is very interested in this booklet. He wants to talk over the phone immediately, and some old friends use this booklet as an opportunity to re-establish contact. A FedEx employee helped him order the brochure and even promised him that she would pass it on to her friends. 

Kyle Keyser has been leaving "want to rebound" pamphlets all over San Francisco.

"I received a very long email from a well-educated and very interesting woman, her life story is very interesting," Kaiser said. "I'm fine, you are not exactly my demographic, but I am glad to meet you."

Although he has not yet met with anyone in person, he thinks he will know when the right time is right.

"Every word in that booklet is true...When the eligible bachelor returns to me, I will be able to feel that this is a good opportunity, a good person," Cather said. "So this booklet is not really written for everyone. It is written for one person or three people. When these people see it, I hope they will respond and seize the opportunity."

After all, as Cather said, his own mother encouraged him, “Lucky always favors the brave.”
