Has anyone ever heard of a Twin Flame and if so can I hear your experiences please?

As above then I have recently found out that there’s such a thing as a Twin Flame, this is apparently more than a soul mate, I’m not sure if I have found mine so I would like to hear about your experiences with your twin flame, if you have any?

Thanks, IF x

Sounds made up to me.

MyOtherProfile · 14/08/2019 22:45

Sounds dodgy. Who can live up to that?

It’s definitely not made up, there is lots of information on Google about it, and you tube, imo it is the same as a soul mate really.

I've heard of it. I think it's complete nonsense. Seems like it might appeal to people who enjoyed watching/reading The Secret.

TubbyMonkeh · 14/08/2019 22:57

Yeah.

There's lots of things on the Internet about Bigfoot too, but uh...

TubbyMonkeh · 14/08/2019 22:58

Did you read all the Twilight books?

DifficultPifcultLemonDifficult · 14/08/2019 22:59

I've heard of it, in fact I know someone who puts up with a whole heap of shit from a guy who doesnt deserve her because she has been told he is her twin flame, he knows this and plays to it.

It's all craps relationships are what they are, there's no higher power at work or 'twin flame'.

Pieceofpurplesky · 14/08/2019 23:03

A friend believes that stuff and feels she has found her twin flame. To an outsider their relationship is two people who have met and it works but there is no flame - they are not attracted to each other (don't have sex), live together as mates, he pays half the bills so she could cut her hours .... she claims he is her twin flame yet it's the least passionate relationship I have ever seen. It's just convenient - he and his wife split and he moved in with her. They get on as mates and it annoys me all the twin flame shit she spouts.

It's bollocks OP.

Soul mates are made up too.

Jade74 · 14/08/2019 23:04

It's not rubbish why are people always so negative on this site it s annoying. It is someone who you may have been connected to in a previous life I am very spiritual and believe you can have a past life connection with someone and it is a very strong connection with another person can be male or female and it 's more than a soul mate you only have one and some people never meet them .
People are ignorant on here I might get flamed now but it's true.

TimeForNewStart · 14/08/2019 23:09

Why would you only be able to have one? Is it that you can only have had one previous life, and in that life you can only have had one major connection?

BitOftheSea · 14/08/2019 23:11

😂 at people being ignorant for saying ‘twin flame’ is a load of nonsense. Piling more past life nonsense on top of the original nonsense doesn’t make it any less ridiculous.

BizzzzyBee · 14/08/2019 23:12

I once met someone who was exactly like me - good and bad. It was exhilarating and amazing but also painfully like looking in a mirror and seeing all my faults acted out in front of me. We couldn’t be together and it literally broke me. I don’t recommend the experience.

lovelylondonsky · 14/08/2019 23:12

People aren't being negative, they're being realistic. 7 billion people on earth, if there's only one soul mate or twin flame out there how do so many people manage to meet them?

alliejay81 · 14/08/2019 23:12

@Jade74

You don't know it is true. You believe it's true. That's fine and it's ok that different people believe different things. I might believe in a Christian God, you might believe in a Jewish God - neither of us have proof and neither of us know.

Let's live and let live. You can believe in "twin flames" and I can believe in "free will". Neither can proof the other is wrong.

When I said that there’s lots of info in Twin Flames on Google then I meant the net, there’s so many written testimonials from people on Quora, You Tube etc, I’m not sure if I totally believe but I’d like too, and I haven’t actually read The Secret but I believe in positive thinking, sometimes you do get what you put in, and other times your just lucky or unlucky.

The guy I like is like the male version of me and things haven’t ran smooth between us from day one and we’ve had a short lived relationship but there was too many games on both sides, insecurity on both parts played a major role between us too, I think about him every day just now.Sad

No doubt there are people in amazing marriages who get along, have loads in common etc. Doesn't mean anything other than they are a good match and they work at their marriage.

Maybe they are called Twin Flames then!Grin Its just another term for people who love each other deeply I guess.

It sounds very juvenile, like something I would have read in J17 back in the day.

Maybe, although most of the testimonials were from women, and a few men, age 35 plus.

OldAndWornOut · 14/08/2019 23:21

There is a theory that we can have a few twin flames in a lifetime, and not necessarily as partners.

The theory is that they enter our lives to teach us something, and then they're on their way.

I think its a load of twaddle, but who knows?

LittleWing80 · 14/08/2019 23:22

Sometimes we just really want to believe in something to keep our hopes up 😔

RosaWaiting · 14/08/2019 23:26

Are you very young?

Just remember, you have choices. You have a brain. You don’t have to follow loins or lust.
