My Runner is Becoming the Chaser

OMG I totally get this role reversal thing and TBH when I stopped obsessing over my twin and started living like the main character in my own movie (not just the supporting role in theirs), that’s when I realized my running wasn’t about them at all but just my soul’s way of saying ‘girl, you’re still putting their validation before your own healing’ LMAO.

When the roles reversed in my experience, I realized it was like watching the seasons change, what was once winter’s yearning became spring’s hesitation, a natural cycle of growth rather than a twist of fate.

Just as flowers sometimes close before a storm to protect their delicate petals, your soul instinctively creates this distance not to separate but to ensure you’re genuinely ready to bloom together in full strength. Like watching a seed I’d desperately watered finally sprout just as I’d stepped back to breathe, I found that my twin’s transformation (that beautiful smile finally revealed) both thrilled and terrified me, the manifestation of what I’d dreamed suddenly making everything so real. Trust in nature’s perfect timing, October feels significant in my path too, as sometimes we need to root deeply in our own soil before we can truly intertwine with another.

I’d heard this repeated soooo often but I wasn’t sure it was really a thing until a while ago when I had my micro version of this. I could literally feel the golden threads between us shifting, no longer pulling painfully but instead weaving a more balanced connection. This sacred reversal isn’t about winning or losing the cosmic process; it’s about both flames reaching the frequency where your crown chakra can finally anchor divine union energy without the lower chakras creating distortion through fear or attachment.

Well, actually, as someone who unexpectedly shifted from chaser to runner myself, what you’re experiencing isn’t so much a ‘cruel twist of fate’ but rather your energy system finally demanding the healing you couldn’t access when you were consumed with chasing.

When I suddenly found myself pulling away from my twin after years of pursuit, I realized my running wasn’t rejection but protection-my soul creating necessary space to process all those emotions I’d bypassed during my chasing phase.

It’s part of the journey. I’d argue a normal and even necessary part.
