I personally don’t believe in the whole twin flame idea. Ever since I learned about it many moons ago, I sat with it for a while and it just didn’t resonate with me. As much as I wanted to believe in all its glory, it feels like spiritual fluff that our ego wants to believe in because we totally love the idea of being with “the one.”
Now let me be clear here, I absolutely believe that we can have a soulful, aligned and beautiful long-term committed relationship with someone that we can evolve with. However, do I believe that there is only “one soul” that I can do that with?
Ummm, no.
I don’t buy into the whole notion that the twin flame is the “other half” of my soul.
Yes I know the whole belief around it says that we are still a complete soul within the twin flame. But seriously, you need another soul to make you whole? That smells like a shame driven idea that we need a twin flame in order to be complete or to balance out our masculine and feminine energies.
In case you forgot…
You are whole.
You are complete.
You are a Divine expression of love.

Let’s talk soul mates though.
I believe in the essence of soul mates BUT I also believe that soul mates are those that we contract with to help each other grow in this life and that we are not just limited to one.
Your soul mate can be your best friend, your dog, your niece, or even the ex-lover that you walked in on sleeping with some other woman.
Your soul mate doesn’t necessarily have to be someone who stays around your entire life or you create magical memories with. Your soul mate could be that ex-lover who took complete advantage of you so that you learned how to stand up for yourself and never take that shit again.
Creating a soulful relationship is more than just whether or not this person is your twin flame or soul mate.
It’s about conscious choice, compatibility, co-creation, being vulnerable through challenges, fears and uncertainty, taking personal responsibility for how you show up and your ability to be present with yourself and your partner each and every day.
To know if someone is “the one” for you will come from the depths of your Soul. By being present in your own heart you will just know. If you’re floating around in la la land and trying to analyze if he or she is your twin flame, you’ll miss out on your intuitive wisdom.
Simply be in the experience of your heart, your soul AND your humanity. By doing so, what’s true for you and the perfect relationship for you will always be revealed.

Hi Christina
I’m with you on this one.

The idea of finding ‘the one’ I think a seductive romantic story. It suggest someone else will provide the bliss, meaning and understanding we crave, especially when we’re experiencing the opposite.
Hi, I’m at work and pushed for time.
(So I can’t read all of your post)
Trust me, twin flames are real. It’s happening to me and people around the world share my experience of my chakras activatiing on seeing her eyes.
This happens to mediums from my research, and this event woke my up that I am one as well. (I’ve sinced proved this)
Regards,
Mark.
Twin flames do not exist. They are never mentioned in history. They are NEVER mentioned by any of the real spiritual cultures out there.
What has happened is people have jumped on the “spiritual bandwagon” and really know jacksh*t about spirituality. These “twin flames” they are encountering are really their soul mates because until the BS being spewed nowadays about there been multiple soul mates there is ONLY ONE soul mate. It is called SOUL MATE for a reason.
Those “multiple soul mates” aren’t soul mates, they are reincarnated souls you met from a prior life – such as a brother of your life in the 1800s and nothing more. My brother & I were either siblings or very close friends in some prior life. We are so in sync we can finish one another’s sentences or start talking at the same time – but we’re not twins. I wouldn’t call him my soul mate in the literal sense because when we’re not driving other people “insane” with our behavior we fight like cats & dogs.
I believe ones Twin is really a Primary soul mate who we have been with in multiple lifetimes.
In this lifetime you may look similar because of the many lifetimes you we’re lovers or husband and wife.
You look similar because you chose to meet marry and have a family in this lifetime.
In the next lifetime you could have a contract with a different soul who you we’re also married to.
The contract is based on ones soul mission in that life. These may change in another, depending on the souls goals for growth and past life issues they need to work out. These change from lifetime to lifetime.
Each soul mate relationship is unique and special. Every soul mate is a mirror reflecting back to us. What we put out.
All of this is done to learn about love, unconditional, Platonic, spiritual, Romantic and Passionate love.
