So many people in this community project concepts onto their karmic relationships and play pretend Twin Flame.
This thread rings true and real.
I think at the end of the day, whatever relationship we have, we should strive to be better people.
It's not about winning a relationship prize and living happily ever after.

Thank you so much for this message.
I should say though that as much as I have taken on this view of the rain flame relationship now, it wasn't always like this.
When I first met my twin flame I was a mess. I was best friends with a narcissist for five years at that point and my self worth was shattered.
The happiness I felt from my twin made me want to cling onto him for dear life. Shortly after this I got into a massive fight with my narcissistic Bestie. We always fought but this time we split for good.
Through this journey my twin flame and I would get close and then drift apart continuously, and it drove me crazy.
There were times I wished never met because I saw him as emotionally unavailable and I thought he never cared.
My therapist however assisted me with shadow work through this time and I started to see that the problem wasn't just with my twin flame, nor was it just with myself. It was both of us. I realized that I focused on his pain so much because I ignored my own pain throughout my entire 25 years on this planet.
He's one of my best friends, although we're not close to the union stage at the moment. Still a lot of work to do.
We talk occasionally and the love is always there, though I would be lying if I said I never get negative feelings now and again. One thing I can certainly say though is that I understand them now.
