I met my twin flame 8 months ago. Beautiful relationship where everything just fits. Weird and beautiful at the same time. However, the human side started to arise and the relationship ended. There is no contact and even though I miss him and want to be back together, he chooses not to make contact with me. Hard pill to swallow since I think we have conversations telepathecally and he has appeared in my dreams. I don't know if we will get back together, but somewhere I feel he still loves me, somewhere buried underneathe the pride. Moreover, I have a question for anyone who is going through this TF process. How do you catch a butterfly? Hands open ready to recieve or to give. Enjoy the moment it arrives. I am in the same situation. I met my twin flame 8 months ago.

Some days I feel fine and some days I do not. I am married to a very nice man and have a beautiful child, but there's a part of me that feels like that other person was MEANT to be in my life and should be with me now. Not even as a romantic partner. It feels like a part of me is missing ... like a missing limb or something. I know we'll meet up again in the next life (possibly this one again, but I doubt it... we're both pretty stubborn), but its a really weird feeling that does not go away. I'm pretty psychologically astute, not crazy (lol) and not overly sappy or emotional and yet this has caused me real stress and strain. I need to access my Akashic record because I KNOW this person is in it... prominently somewhere. Thank you for posting. I needed to read this. It makes me feel a bit better. lol ;-) I had the exact same thing happen … and that was 6 years ago and do you know that I STILL think about this person everyday?

Congrats to you for accepting your empathic ways, AND for taking on the task of getting a handle on it :) Being an empath, yes it can be very different! It can bring lots of joyful experiences to you as well. I hope your experience of empathy will bring you more joy than not. Much love to you, as always!! <3 Hiya Ravin!

Yes, we are all unique, and there's something profound about opening to a perspective that is so different from the one we carry with us most of the time :) As to your question, I think it is definitely possible to move toward greater empathy. I did this myself, several years ago... The answer may not be fun to hear, but the way I came to open up to it more, was to start embracing my own emotional experience. I'd shut it off from myself because the feelings were so hard to confront, and then lots of time passed and I just got used to the numbed-out me. Slowly, I began to move toward emotive me, to accept feelings, to allow them to be, and my empathy came with it. Presence can help too! I know I was too good at pushing emotional me away though, before I made a conscious decision to feel everything - even the painful stuff. In my case, I was mostly hiding from feelings about stuff that had already happened, and by hiding from emotions in the past I was also blocking my emotional body from my awareness in the present. When it comes to emotions for the present, presence can certainly help ^_^ Thanks for reading and I'm glad you got something out of it!!! <3 Thanks, Fred!

I'm often completely unaware of what people around me are feeling.. I'm just going about on my own little adventure most of the time. It's fun to see how other people see the world, especially from a perspective so different than mine. Do you think people can learn to be more empathetic? Is it possible for someone to "attune" to this emotional feeling world that isn't already there naturally? I remember Eckhart Tolle talking about getting in touch with your body and emotions through presence, maybe I'll try a bit of that. Cool article. :)

I'd say many of us can fall into thinking we understand another person's inner workings better than they do. As you say, sometimes it happens when we aren't separating our feelings from theirs, and even those of us who live consciously can suddenly realize we weren't sticking with that autonomy. (eek! hehe) That can happen to empaths and non-empaths alike, and your discussion of the article is inspiring a new one from yours truly. Empaths can have extra trouble with separating where they stop and the other starts, and finding ways to strengthen our individuality muscles can also support those empaths who feel overloaded by the signals from other people. Hmm... you got my gears turning... Thank you for that! I can also feel the beginnings of an article about letting things go. Boy, do I relate to your progress with room for improvement on that issue! You sound like you came to some profound understanding about yourself, and I'm honored to be a witness to that! Much love! Hey there, Ginger!

And thus, perhaps, taken on more responsibility/ownership for a given situation since I wasn't as good (perhaps) at separating MY feelings versus the other person's feelings. I am much better at this discernment now, but I think I could do more work here. I think approaching it with the "empath" distinction in mind may help a lot with this... :coughs: I also am not so good at the "and now I have given you a choice and will walk away from the topic if that is your decision" part, though I have gotten MUCH better with this in recent years!

Sometimes that can blow up in your face too ;) Hope the tips will serve you! Stay lovely, from my heart to yours :) Andrew, I’m glad to hear this resonates for you!

I would agree that presence is incredibly important when it comes to connecting with others. I have heard that some folks note their Twin is like a mirror image, and others note a few surface-level differences. Of course, what we express with our "shell" on the surface isn't necessarily the same as what we are holistically, adding in who we are at the deepest level. And I don't think that even means one isn't being authentic. Sometimes there's just not enough "room" or "space" on the surface to express the wholeness of what we are. I do believe it can be limiting to expect a particular expiration date on any relationship, no matter whether it looks like a Twin relationship. I suppose this is also where Presence comes in handy!

If you are okay with yourself, then your twin flame should be the same, and if you aren't then he probably won't be able to stand you. I will like to also state that it's more about being in the present moment than being "okay" with yourself. When I say okay it comes out like you accept all of your past actions, and if you sit and think of them you probably cannot accept them, so the solution would be to accept the past in total and stay present and enjoy every moment. To stop thinking, to quiet the mind, to be present. If you are not thinking you will not attract or attract anything from a thought point.....if you are fully present and accepting then you will attract the exact same...and that will be your twin.
