Lately, I’ve been feeling this intense pull towards both my DM and someone I suspect might be a karmic partner. It’s like my heart is being tugged in two directions, and I’m struggling to make sense of it all. Has anyone else experienced this kind of dual attraction? How did you figure out which connection to pursue, especially when both feel significant in their own ways?

Chart Your Path to Union
The path to union can feel lonely, confusing and downright painful.

For me, the karmic connection faded over time, while the twin flame bond only grew stronger (even when I tried to ignore it), which helped me realize where my true path lay.
The karmic is there to teach you something. If they’re really a karmic - they will leave when that lesson is done and it won’t be pretty.
You might want to look at what a karmic actually means.
If you are comparing the two, you might be mixing up the terminology a little. There are people who might choose a soulmate for ease but a karmic?
I don’t think it would be the best idea.

Oh wow, I totally get that feeling! 
I had a similar conflict between my DM and a soulmate connection, but ultimately my heart just knew which one was truly home. <3 Trust your intuition and let love guide you - it’ll all make sense when you’re ready!
A soulmate is a viable option that you could be happy with. It’s not the same as your mirror soul but you can be happy.
If the other option really is a karmic… it’s not a good choice. It can’t last. It won’t work. There’s only hurt that way.
That article was actually quite painful for me to read. It honestly seems like it was written by someone who really does not have much of a clue as to what these concepts trully are. So perhaps I should clarify this notion of “karmic” and “soulmate”, because that article is a bit of a mess.
Lets start with what this journey is trully all about, and that’s to learn life (or soul) lessons.
Now, when it comes to learning these lessons, you learn them in 2 main ways. Though positive experiences that bring you happiness and joy, or negative experiences that bring you pain and suffering.
The individuals or creatures that teach you and help you learn these lessons are called soulmates.
These could be people, animals, insects, etc. They’re your friends, your mates, your buddies, helping you go through certain experiences in order to learn life lessons and reach a “higher level of consciousness” or a better understanding of how life works, and what living a fulfilling life is really all about.
Because what better way to learn about something then to experience it first hand am I right? Talking about having a broken leg is certainly not the same as going through the experience of having a broken leg!
Now, with this understanding, we can look at what a soulmate and a karmic really are.
A soulmate in the traditional sense or by the societal definition of it, is an individual or creature that teaches you life (or soul) lessons through positive experiences. They do this through re-occuring exposure to cycles of joy and empowerment, igniting your passion and creativity.
A karmic is what many in the community refer to as the opposite of a soulmate. These are individuals or creatures that teach you life (or soul) lessons though negative experiences. They tend to bring about a lot of negativity and disruption in your life, with the in goal of teaching you these life lessons through " tough love". And this is why they tend to have a bad rep. Expect repeated instances or cycles of lies, manipulation, deception, etc. Some of them can even be covert narsicists.
Each of them serve the same purpose, which is to teach you the lessons you need to learn in order to have a more stable and harmonious union with your twin, the next time it occurs.

Definitely a confusing time 
. For me, the pull towards my DM felt more like coming home, while the karmic connection was intense but ultimately draining, that helped me recognize where I needed to focus my energy.
It becomes obvious eventually…
A true DM connection pushed me to face my shadows and evolve, while the karmic felt intense but only in the short term and won’t last or lead to lasting personal growth.
Normally I don’t tell people what to do with their love life…
But don’t waste time with a karmic when you have met your TF.
Meditate on your heart chakra visualizing each connection. It will help you sense which energy truly aligned with your highest path.
Your twin flames energy will feel like a warm, golden light, while a karmic’s is more of a fleeting, intense spark with darkness behind it.
This intense pull might be your soul’s way of highlighting unresolved issues. Your DM represents your highest potential, while the karmic partner embodies lessons you still need to learn.
Embracing both connections, without expectation, could let you gain clarity on your true path.
Paying attention to how each person affects your energy is important - does being around them leave you feeling drained or uplifted?
Your true twin flame connection will ultimately raise your vibration and open your heart chakra, even if it’s difficult sometimes. Trust your intuition and focus on your own healing journey - the right path will become clear when you’re aligned with your highest self.
I’ve never seen someone even consider a karmic over a twin flame. It’s not even close.
