Trying to explain a twin flame to someone who hasn’t encountered the idea before… it’s like trying to explain a jet engine to a poodle. They’re just going to look at you until you stop talking or hand over a snack.
Trying to understand what just happened to you after feeling this kind of connection when you otherwise only know ‘normal’ relationships… is kind of the same thing.
Did I just meet my twin flame?
I met someone a few months ago and we had such an intense connection. I felt like I’ve known him my whole life.
We share an odd amount of things from our past and present that it kind of freaked me out how someone could be so similar to me through lived experiences and interests.
We went on dates, were intimate, spent actual time with one another and then randomly, it stopped.
I’ve always been levelheaded when things don’t work out. I’m not one to get too sad when things end because I know there’s other fish in the sea. However, I’ve literally been mourning him since we last hung out.
I’m physically and mentally ill. I can’t even eat a proper meal because I instantly feel sick. I’ve had two 3 year relationships that have ended and I’ve never felt this level of sadness.
I feel like he stole a piece of my soul and I’m struggling without it. I know it sounds crazy but I don’t know how to control my emotions. I’ve been crying multiple times a day since the last time I had seen him 3 weeks ago.
Is this what it feels like to meet a twin flame?
This heartfelt account resonates with many who’ve experienced their first twin flame encounter. While no two paths are ever exactly the same, there are some definite trends between them.
The Twin Flame Connection
When you meet your twin flame, it’s like looking into a mirror of your soul. The connection is often:
-
Intense and immediate
-
Filled with uncanny similarities and synchronicities
-
Deeply transformative
The first meeting of twin flames isn’t always love. This isn’t a Hollywood movie. Sometimes it’s even anger but the one thing that is true is that there is some kind of energy between you. It will not be a ‘normal’ meeting.
