Has anyone else felt like they’re on a different spiritual wavelength than their twin? I’m curious how you’ve handled it when one of you seems to be progressing faster or diving deeper into spiritual practices - did it create distance or bring you closer together in unexpected ways?

From what I see… is it always the DM that is less open to the spiritual side?
My TF and I were definitely on different spiritual wavelengths for a while.
I had my own yoga retreat and was diving deep into meditation and energy work while they were more skeptical. It created tension at first, but ultimately brought us closer as we learned to respect each other’s paths and share what resonated.
I think many of us go through the tension of the DM laughing at spiritual terms or (at least) ignoring the spiritual side.
It isn’t always the DF who is the spiritual one but it does seem that the two move at a different pace when it comes to being open to that side of the bond.
It’s not always the DM who’s less spiritual. Sometimes the DF will be pretty skeptical at first while the DM dives headfirst into all things metaphysical.
But maybe because of social norms and pressure from society the DM generally does not feel comfortable with that. Eventually you should both balance each other out while your counterpart catches up.
It is nice when they start asking metaphysical questions 
I was resistant to exploring spiritual practices at first, while they seemed to embrace it wholeheartedly. Surprisingly, their patience and gentle encouragement actually helped me open up more over time, bringing us closer in unexpected ways as I slowly began exploring my own spirituality at my own pace.
I believe this may be quite normal, and even natural?
The goal of the connection is to challenge each other to grow and evolve, and what better way to do so then to dispute and question each other’s beliefs.
One thing to remember however, is that there is always commonality.
Rational thought, logic and even modern science and technology does trace its origins back to various spiritual practices. And sometimes these similarities can be quite…shocking.
It baffled me during the first 6 months after I met my twin why she began talking about spiritual things, reincarnation, past lives etc then gave me various books to read. It didn’t make sense to me and though I appreciated and acknowledged her interest, I wasn’t at all interested, yet here’s the thing that bewildered me for over 20 years before I discovered what twin flames are - I began acting and feeling weird, totally unaware that I was starting to undergo an awakening then disaster struck as I believed it was “depression”, went on meds and that killed the awakening dead in its tracks and caused no end of problems between my twin and I. Now I look back and cringe at that mistake but also understand what my twin was doing - she was trying to help me to awake but sadly began a 6 year game of push and pull where eventually she gave up on me and ran. One lives and learns. That entire relationship felt bizarre to me as we loved each other dearly yet we were constantly mirroring each other so when I discovered what twin flames are, it finally explained everything that had baffled me. And yes, 23 years after I was supposed to, I finally woke up and now embrace a spiritual path.
Cultivating and learning from your mistakes is hard. There are no two ways about it. But I can assure you it IS worth it!
Even if your awakening was as late as it was, this likely serves a purpose.
Throughout my journey I have found that nothing ever happens without a reason or a lesson behind it.
Even if you don’t see it now, as you continue on, I’m certain you’ll begin to see the beauty and humour of the divine plan that is always working to bring mirrored souls together.
Be greatful that you did finally awaken. Be greatful that it wasn’t 46 years later, rather than 23. Many don’t awaken, and are actively resisting their evolution and growth.
Its never too late to start living a meaningful and fulfilling life. You have taken a bold step by choosing to embrace a spiritual path. Celebrate this milestone!
Yep. He’s about five steps behind me on the journey and seven years my junior. I have tried using science-based information about spirituality to help him understand my path because he was raised in a religious cult that really made him retaliate against spirituality and religion. He believed in the Universe when i met him,but that’s as far as he got after i tried to explain our connection. He got scared and ran. I’m just letting him learn on his own now…planting seeds when i can.
@Scorpio says a lot of incredible things around here and this might be one of the most important I’ve read.
I don’t feel like it. I am 100% certain and it makes this really hard. I am in union and while it has been great we are kind of at this limbo phase and I am struggling with whether or not to say anything related to twins at all. I wish I would have sought out forums like this a long time ago because I have kept this all to myself for so long. Mainly because I know there is no one in my life who has the bandwidth for this.
So do you think it’s better to not say anything and let your twin find out on their own? This morning I talked about angel numbers to him and he has been teasing me and giving me shit about it all day. I can’t even imagine if I would have said anything about twin flames.
Another aspect I haven’t considered before is the concept of opposites.
After all, the opposite to a rookie is a pro. 
I can’t help but wonder if I need to slow down my growth so he can catch up. I honestly don’t know. What I do know is I am sick to death of this. Of him. I forgive him for the way he left but he’s gone now and his exit leaves no room for hope as far as Im concerned. I have got to turn the page on this. I have lost so much weight. I can’t spare another pound for him.
No, you shouldn’t. They have their own path to pass through. So do you. If you have an idea to let let yourself slowing down for his sake, it means you gave a limitation to yourself. For real, we can’t really decide how fast or how slow we grow. It’s always the right trigger, the right momentum, and the right timing.
