    Hi yes ,

     

    i met my twin flame and they are an a hole. Lol . Avoidantly attached, non communicative, can’t tell the truth to save their life. Stalks my social media but never reaches out. If it is your twin flame they sound like a runner . And so they are truly running from themselves and not you so don’t take it personally.

     

    then I’ll give you what most people would say “those are just labels don’t take it so seriously.”

    but you and I both know how those signs can get. They don’t let you rest until you acknowledge them so.

    Well Idk if you for the signs actually. But if it was your twin flame you’d know.

    twin flames rarely stay together romantically. They prepare people for their soulmates. A TF can turn into a soulmate. But we live in a day in time where less and less people are facing themselves. Many people run away from themselves.

    Also TF usually enhance the others spiritual experience and calling. Since I met mine, I’ve been meeting other people who have met theirs. Or meeting others with very similar stories to mine or my Twin Flame- super similar and so I just guess that’s the purpose. To help those since I’ve healed through mine .

    Lol “the universe is bugging”–love it.  That’s partly the reason I wanted to share my story, to meet others that have also met their twin flames and hear their experiences–so thank you!  Like I’ve mentioned, none of the friends I’ve spoken to about it really get it, or they think it’s an unhealthy fixation that I just need to get over.  If I could wave a magic wand and make the feelings go away I would…but, unfortunately, I can’t.

    And to respond to what you said–there was a time that I was deeply felt that he was my twin flame, but I’m one of those people that constantly struggles between her head and her heart.  And I’ve felt so hurt (and embarrassed, in a way) by my feelings towards him that I’ve basically talked myself out of it.  But then I’ll have a dream, or hear a song, and fall into this reverie where I think about him and be swept up by the overwhelming feelings that he is my TF.  Or if I’m going through something painful, I’ll think about him, and the thought of him makes me feel better, somehow.

    And yea, I can totally relate to the idea of a TF enhancing one’s spiritual calling.  I’ve definitely felt that’s been the case with me.  And it’s funny how during the few times we hung out together, I felt like my intuition grew to the level where I almost felt psychic.  Like I just knew certain things about him, to the point where he would ask me “how did you know that?”  It was kind of eerie.

    And don’t even get me started on the 11:11 thing lol.  My birthday is on 11/11, and our birthdays are both in November.  So i think the signs are there–I’m just scared to admit them.  Because what i feel for him makes no sense, and I’m truly in a stage of my life where i’m tired of waiting on someone and just want to find someone who cares about me and doesn’t run away.

    Any thoughts on false twin flames?

    They are psychic gifts.

    im a non traditional psychic and many people out there don’t have much accurate information on TF.

    i don’t believe in false TF. You either have one or you don’t. Or it’s still a sacred connection regardless if it activates your gifts or calling. Search up Twin Flame Revolution on YouTube. They are my mentors actually .. don’t tell anyone lol.. nah but we share similar gifts, they are actually on point. They have a video on “false twin flames” I think they hit the nail on the head

    I said the same thing. If I could wave a wand and make it go away I would. Thing is, our higher self chooses this. So we did choose it. I got a few choice words to share with my higher self as well lol. It’s a very unforgiving connection . It shows you you. And we get caught up in the magic and forget the lessons and our own power sometimes. Eventually it gets tiring and we have no choice but to start facing and listening to ourselves . And that cloud finally moves from over our heads. Will the signs still be there? Yes but they let up eventually unless you know, they are thinking about you, are near, or we are not being true to ourselves. Your TF regardless to where they are physically will always be connected to you. So boundaries are also important . Especially spiritual boundaries.

    But yours doesn’t seem to be like at that annoying stage yet.

    Just accept the signs and be open to the lessons. Stay structured in your purpose. Don’t get too caught up in it. Yes it’s annoying. But consider it a blessing . You aren’t alone. God does exist. You so have a purpose. Life goes on.

    Excuse my typos… lol

    I’m always here to talk it out though. I’m just a little jaded.

    I also get the “tired of people running away” piece. Attachment styles also play a role in it.  Not always. Im a secure attachment and I ran at the very beginning, but I ran towards myself. My TF is very avoidant. I thought they were anxious but turns out they are fearful avoidant so a mixture of both.

    Once I became more secure in my attachment style I began to attract others who are more secure . It’s a little boring at first. But it’s a lot more peaceful in the long run.

    I think that’s partially why I’m jaded. I knew I fell in love with my TF because we were at peace. But as soon as all our trauma started to mirror each-other and fears came up, and questions about identity/sexuality , lifestyle differences etc came up… it all kind of blew up in our faces. More so their face lol. I trust my life and my purpose, I’ve learned to listen and take steps forward regardless to not seeing the whole staircase. My TF sort of like me, I think gets caught up in the looks of things. Afraid of how others will perceive them. And not very trusting of life itself. Like if they took risks, they’re afraid it will explode in their face. Type of thing . Me on the other hand , with my experiences and how spiritually loud this situation has been , I’m 90-100 % sure that if we came together things would take off in a positive direction, we’d build together, be financially more abundant, be more sure of our purpose and balance eachother out in it. Because your gifts do activate with the connection .

    But you can also do it all without them. It’s just hard at first until you fully face yourself.

    I hope your TF works his stuff out. Or that you meet your soulmate.

    It’s interesting to hear your perspective on things, because I also feel like I’m moving from having an anxious attachment style to a more secure one. And a big part of the reason for that is that since meeting S, I’ve made a concerted effort to only date men who are consistent, who seem to want something long-term and who don’t ignite these crazy feelings of anxiety and self-doubt in me. I’ve also learned to express my needs more, be more comfortable with being vulnerable and end things when I realize a guy is probably avoidant.

    Overall I have little doubt that my encounter with S, whether he is my TF or not, stirred up something in me that led me to a path of self-discovery and spiritual progress, and for that I am grateful. I saw the TF video you recommended and loved it (the couple is so cute and insightful!) and I do think in the end the tf/false tf flame distinction is probably irrelevant. No matter how I label S, it’s clear to me that he has had a “sacred purpose” in my life, which was basically to jump start my interest in spiritual development and to force me to re-think and modify my attachment styles in relationships.

    Thanks for well wishes with regard to my TF/soulmate..wishing you the same!

    Hey Lena,

    I have little to share but I’m loving your story and how you wrote it. I can almost feel the connection! I hope you get your answers. It does seem like a difficult choice to make since it’s such a difficult kind of connection to encounter.

    Hola @Grenada, can you please expand on this?:

    “Your TF regardless to where they are physically will always be connected to you. So boundaries are also important . Especially spiritual boundaries. But yours doesn’t seem to be like at that annoying stage yet.”

    How do you know if you’ve got your spiritual boundaries on the right place? What happens in the annoying stage?

    Thank you, light and good day.

    Thanks Faber! I was a bit long-winded and probably provided way too much detail lol but I couldn’t help just get it off my chest. And yes, it is a really challenging connection, mostly because it’s made me doubt myself so much. A part of me has sought to disown the connection and cast it off as being a figment of my imagination because of how intense and strange and non-conventional it is. But the more I disown it, the more my subconscious forces me to accept it as real…for instance, I’ll dream about him more during periods where I’ve attempted to suppress what I feel towards him. So I’m slowly learning to just accept it, “crazy” or not. And also realize that in some ways I’VE been the avoidant one, even though I’ve always labeled him as the “runner”.

    Great question by the way, I would love to know the same. @Grenada , if you don’t mind me asking, how did you leave things with your twin flame? Did you eventually learn to accept it and move on?  I’m fearful as to whether I’ll able to truly let go of the desire to see S again and be “reunited,” versus just living my life and being ok with whatever happens.

    Dear Lena:

    I am not sure at the moment, talking about spiritual concepts like twin flames and soulmates and such, I don’t know if there is more than just this one spiritual concept- trust. It is not a tangible item, and it is more than a feeling. Millions of children fall into an abyss of life time of dysfunction  every day because a parent betrayed their trust.

    All children trust blindly, not even knowing there is such a possibility of their trust betrayed.

    When that happens, when we are betrayed as children (and most of us are, in one way or another), there is only one way back to mental well-being and that is an adult relationship where mutual trust is practiced, when both parties to the relationship are trustworthy and trusting.

    When a man (or a woman) keeps his word to the other, tells the truth, speaks about her when she is not present the same way as he speaks to her or about her in her presenece, when he doesn’t disappear from her life with no  explanation or without bothering to explain beyond a text, when he stays and has her well-being on his mind, walking his talk- there is no man or relationship more spiritual.

    Trust and being worthy of trust is everything and without these- there is nothing.

    If I was you, the only question I would ask about this or that man is not if he is a twin flame, but- is he trustworthy? And if he is, take in a deep breath of fresh air- there is nothing more refreshing and spiritual than trust-in-practice.

    Anita,

    Thanks for your perspective–I agree that trust is really the building block to any meaningful relationship.  Much more so than infatuation, which is what I often worry my feelings towards S can only be described as.  For me, I cut things off with him–despite being very, very into him–because logically, I knew that I could not date someone, even casually, that didn’t respect my time, wasn’t consistent, didn’t show a genuine interest in getting to know me, etc.  And so I distanced myself from him,  because I knew that he was someone I couldn’t rely on to provide me with what I 100% know I need in a relationship.  And him saying things behind my back to suggest the feelings were one-sided only confirmed my fears that maybe I just have an unhealthy infatuation I need to work to get over.

    The only problem is, the more I try to let go and move on, the more I cling onto him.  I really don’t know why.  I’ve had many relationships/flings over the years and though some have been intense, I’ve usually gotten over them without any issues (with the exception of 1 boyfriend who was on my mind for years, but that was an actual relationship.  Unlike this).  I don’t know what it is about S that makes me still think about him so often.  I try to fill my time with meaningful things–seeing friends, taking trips, hobbies–but the negative part of me feels really disappointed in myself.  Like maybe my life is so empty that I need to invent wild romances to make it more exciting.  I feel bad if that’s the case, because I really do just want to live in the present and see reality as it is instead of living in some fantasy I’ve created.

    It also doesn’t help that at times S has appeared to have similar feelings, though he’s refused to actually talk about them in depth with me.  Again, the pessimistic part of me has come to the conclusion that he probably doesn’t have those feelings after all….he’s probably just getting some ego boost from having a girl that’s “super into him,” as he told his friend.  I don’t know.  I’m tired of speculating about his state of mind or emotions towards me and just want to focus on myself, but it’s really hard.  Especially since he lives in the same city and I know it’s possible that I’ll run into him in a social setting.

    Dear Lena:

    You are welcome. Our teenage/ adult infatuations or attractions to others have a lot to do with our early childhood experiences. Almost everything does. I will use quotes from your share to suggest what I think happened with S:

    “I felt connected to him in a way that’s really difficult to put into  words”- when we are young children we feel intensely. Our emotions are raw and pure because we don’t yet add thoughts and words to the emotional experience. There are no cognitive interruptions that dilute and weaken the emotional  experience. What you experienced with him, aided by alcohol, was that pre-cognition, early life quality of emotion.

    “like we were showing each other the self that you normally keep  tucked away until you know someone well (and perhaps not even then)”- a young child does show her real self to others automatically, from birth . The child is not at all self conscious, not yet inhibited by later life experiences, such as rejection. What you experienced with S, at times, was that uninhibited, unhidden self, like a young child.

    “He revealed deep-seated insecurities to me and I found myself sharing the same insecurities”- reads like he too had that young child experience with  you, aided by alcohol. (You found out that the two of you share the same insecurities because most of us people do share the same insecurities).

    “I experienced this strange, heady mix of feeling like I could completely be myself around him”- I think we miss this experience of long ago, before disapproval, before rejection, before rules of conduct, when we were indeed ourselves.

    “There was a dreamlike quality to our time together”- a re-experience of early childhood experience. It was indeed a dream. And you got  a glimpse of it. Intoxicating, isn’t it?

    “the more I try to  let go and move on, the more I cling onto him. I really don’t know why”- I think the reason is that dream, that intoxicating magic of how it felt to be  a young child before life hit us on the face and spoiled that magic. You felt a bit of that dreamy experience and you want more of  it.

    “I don’t know what it is  about S that makes me still think about him so often”- why S, may be the question, what about him brought the dream and magic to life?-

    – alcohol helped. But other than alcohol: can be his smile, the look in his eyes, his mannerism, something about him remined you of someone in your life as a young child. Something you forgot, it being so long ago. But part of you remembered when you saw his smile, or his eyes, or the way he wiggled his nose.

    If he experienced something similar with you, and I think he did, he awakened from that experience. You are still attached to the dream, is what I think.
