Separation Stage- Runner blocked me on everything

This stage is brutal. He blocked me on everything but yet, everyday, we mirror each other using our IG profile (i.e. number of posts, followers, following) to match mine, my birthday or his, or combo of numbers that are specific to us. I know it sounds strange but it’s my current experience. If I disappear or don’t change my numbers one day, he’ll do the same next day. Smh. Omgoodness, contact me already! I just want to scream.

Wow… that’s… harsh. I’m not too clear if the IG-matching was accidental syncing or if he’s doing it on purpose, though.

I can’t give an advice for your current experience (Because personally? I blocked my counterpart back even in the most unthinkable platforms). But I understand your feeling of “going crazy”. Welcome to the forum, feel free to rant here :smiley:

Thanks for your reply. Not here to convince you (anyone) though.. Just joined the community and vulnerable enough to share my experience- but, now regretting it and this forum doesn’t allow me to delete it.

That’s okay, sorry I sounded skeptical (after all I don’t have your eyes to see it happen in real time)! Everyone’s journey was weird and different and most of us will believe you - this forum is just the place to write about these experiences.

Sending you love and strength. Being blocked is definitely not easy. My Twin hasn’t blocked me, but he has gone completely no contact from me and also changed his mobile number. It hurts and the process sucks, but I guess everyone has a different way of processing their emotions on this journey. Sometimes shutting things out and pretending they don’t exist is easier, but it does catch up to you

Might help if you try to not check his IG if that is possible? Focus on your own healing (easier said than done I know). I’m on that journey myself, but has definitely helped my state of mind to keep him “muted” on IG.

Thank you for your kind words and advice. I’ll give it my best shot, although it’s really hard not to check😩

I’ve done so much work on self love and self acceptance, thanks in part to a book called ‘Mirror Work by Louise Hay’. I’m so proud of myself. You’re right though, I just need to surrender and I’m working on that now..

Believe me I get that it’s much easier said than done. Please don’t hesitate to reach out via DM if you need a safe space to rant/vent or a shoulder to cry on. I know personally I’ve been at points when I just needed to talk to someone who just got it and wouldn’t judge. Sending you love. You’re not alone x

When my twin blocked me, I spent months trying to decode every little thing like you’re doing with the IG numbers, until I realized the blocking actually forced me to stop obsessing over their actions and finally focus on my own healing which ironically seemed to shift our entire dynamic.

I really feel you on this. Being blocked during separation is one of the hardest parts of this experience. When my twin blocked me, I felt like I was going crazy, too, especially when I’d noticed all these synchronicities and number patterns everywhere. As if spirit is playing with you while you’re already in pain.

The number matching you’re seeing on IG is actually pretty common in twin flame connections. I’ve experienced similar things. Those patterns and synchronicities can feel so significant, like they’re messages or signs. But I learned (the hard way) that obsessing over them was actually keeping me stuck in a loop of checking and rechecking, which wasn’t helping my healing at all.

Trust me, I know it’s easier said than done, but shifting focus from the external signs to your own healing really does help. Sending you so much love through this difficult phase.

The number matching thing hits different when you realize (speaking as someone who’s been there) that some runners literally set alarms to change their profiles. Mine admitted months later he’d screenshot my page daily to make sure the numbers stayed ‘balanced’ between us (absolute madness, right?). All that effort just to avoid a single text.

What if the numbers aren’t messages but rather his way of checking if you’re still energetically connected without having to unblock you? Maybe he is just as confused by this compulsion as you are? Could this be less about communication and more about him testing whether the inexplicable bond still exists despite the blocking?

As a DM who’s done the blocking thing, I can tell you the number game isn’t as calculated as it seems. I’d change mine without thinking, then notice hers matched and feel this weird pull to ‘fix’ it back. Couldn’t explain why just felt wrong when they didn’t align. The spiritual explanations made no sense to me then, but that magnetic need to mirror her was undeniable. Still don’t fully get it, but I know I wasn’t consciously trying to send messages.

Jung called these ‘meaningful coincidences’ and they’re often the universe’s way of whispering that the connection persists beyond the physical blocks. Your experience with the number patterns isn’t strange at all; it’s the soul’s creative way of maintaining contact when the ego has shut the door.

this is so sweet of you to offer. having someone who truly gets it without judgment is everything.

As there have been people who have been there for me on this journey, I want anyone to feel comfortable if they want to reach out to me if they need. I know I appreciated it when someone just listened. My own little way to paying it forward :heart:

Something I’ve noticed through my own painful experience is that when my twin blocked me after saying hurtful things, it seemed like he was actually trying to block out the parts of himself that I reflected back to him: the vulnerability he couldn’t handle.

The walls he put up between us were really walls against his own emotions, and I could sense how much internal conflict this created for him even from a distance. It helped me understand that the blocking wasn’t really about me at all, but about his own struggle with feeling too exposed and needing to regain a sense of control.

Reminds me of Kafka’s quote: ‘A cage went in search of a bird.’ Your twin created this elaborate numbers prison, but who’s really trapped you watching the patterns or him maintaining them? The energy it takes to orchestrate daily number changes while pretending you don’t exist… that’s a special kind of self-torture only runners seem to master.

Yes absolutely. I totally agree.
