I say this as real love takes time and understanding of another person.

I never said he was my twin. I'm not sure where you got that from. I said I consider him to be "a soulmate" - and I believe we can have many different soulmates in this life. I don't appreciate how you've inferred that my feelings are an illusion, or that the kind of connection I feel towards this person "may not" exist. This is a spiritual based forum and I should be able to talk about my feelings or experiences that are not necessarily based on science.

I can relate to this one...I had something really weird happen in 2015 when twin and I were in contact a lot. She told me that she got a cold of some sort (don't remember if it was bronchitis or a sinus infection) and was prescribed an antibiotic. She told me that she broke out in hives from it which never had happened before. A short while after that I also caught the same type of cold. I was also prescribed an antibiotic and broke out in hives! I never have been allergic to anything in my life.

Sometimes if we talk early morn we end up 'twinning' with our morning stuffiness and croaky morning voices! Also upon learning more about each other found out we both have the same ear and sinus problems, both have astigmatism and we even both have similar larger noticeable front teeth! I will say that when one is sick it is no picnic for the other! The coddling can get out of hand at times!

Can relate I remember when me and her had a cold and she gave me one of her tissues lol. Could smell her perfume on it had to keep it and smell it :)

Being an empath is tough and means that you need to protect yourself. Being that way makes you precious and also means that it's easy for energy to attach itself to you. So it might be worth doing some work to protect your auric field. When we feel other people's emotions, illnesses etc it can be very debilitating. Due to this protection is important. I say throw a cloak of light around yourself each day so that you are protected from picking up peeps symptoms. White light is basic protection. If you want to be approachable throw in some pink.

It does not matter who people are to us, feeling their stuff can be too much for the system oftentimes and therefore it's worth taking the time to protect.
