have you ever met anyone you've felt like you knew from a past life? Felt like you knew them when you met? Is it really 'love at first sight'?
Yes. My ex. We could have sworn we'd been together before.
Just too comfortable and familiar with each other. Even now, as friends,
we can't stay away from each other, we refuse to, like our connection and bond can't
be broken even through all the fucked up shit we've been thru.

He says it was love at first sight for him lol. I actually remember when we first met, we were introduced
through a mutual friend and I remember him staring at me so hard like he was trying to place my face.
And when I looked at him he said it felt like I looked into his soul! LOL (he's so dramatic). About we week later
we got together and were inseperable.

My ex who is also my twin.
So it came in a a dream later confirmed by a psychic of our most recent past life together.
It was love at first sight but that kind of power can be too much some, and usually is especially our tf relationship.

I always felt at peace, safe even with him no matter what.. but yeah
this seems to be the theme i am noticing, and have even read up on. people who have these connections never stay together. why didn't it work for you, do you think?

im so curious about this

I think I've had multiple past life connections. It wasn't love at first sight though. They immediately felt something for me, I wouldn't call it love lol. Both ended pretty terrible, one mores than the other. Both were difficult experiences though. Neither were sustainable relationships. If I had to guess, I'd say I probably fucked them over in a past life something bad and this iteration was to strike balance.

I think I have a past life connection with two other friends too. Not sure in what way, but there's something noticeable in difference that I relate to them compared to others.

I don't think I've ever felt love at first sight. I've felt a lot of instant chemistry, but nothing in the realm of love.
thanks. thats interesting. are you friends with them now?

i have a friend that i am closest too. we say we are soul sisters, but i don't know to what extent that we are or not

I'm still with mine. I sometimes wish I could move on, because I do think I could find a more complete happiness with someone else. But our connection is too strong. I feel like even if I were with someone who checked off more boxes for me, I would feel lost without him somehow.

We've been together for 20+ years and there's a real sense that we belong together, even though we both sense that we can't give the other exactly what they need.

It's a very strange and complex relationship.

so recently i posted about someone i think is my twin flame.

the more i read on this stuff, the more confused i am. I'm trying to add a label, but its become too hard for me to do.

anyway, i have received information on my past life in an effort to get some clarity on my life, in general. what i was told still does not make sense to me. and i don't know if i fully believe it. it literally sounds like some movie you would see or a fictional tale lol. thats what makes me question the truth of it all. anyway, i was told that i would meet a 'soulmate' from my past life and i would recognize him. he was part of my past life story, so without writing it all here, it seems the guy who is currently still in my thoughts was also a 'soulmate' but we are not meant to be.

i feel, at the very least, i have a karmic tie with him. i can't say that i have any deja vu moments or i think I've known him in a past life, but there is some sort of familiarity with him that i cannot explain. i am usually good at reading people, and with him i am not sure if its the fact that i can 'feel' he is a good soul, or if he is a soulmate that makes me question the whole thing. even though i was told he was a soulmate, i don't believe it because I've also been told he's not good for me. its so confusing, i usually want to know everything but i am trying to surrender to the universe lol. anyway, when I'm around this guy we have a strong pull toward each other, but something in the pit of my stomach says it isn't right. apparently, it may be due to circumstances of my past life with him. i also feel like so much has gone on in the past few months that the link is breaking, so to speak.

i guess now I'm just left wondering about him and about this new guy i will 'recognize'. and then I'm reading a lot about how these past life relationships don't work out. so is a true soulmate someone NOT from your past? so many questions, like I've been told, 'sometimes its better to not know all the answers' haha.

i feel you completely. i basically ran away from someone like this recently, who I've posted about.

on paper, we would probably get married and have babies lol. we are compatible and have a very strong attraction toward each other, but something inside feels 'wrong'. like you stated, thats how i feel. i honestly wonder if he feels the same way. it never went that far to be discussed because i keep running lol.

have you two talked about it? maybe you have some things to still 'work' on together.

i feel i am meant for more, and maybe thats why i run too. thats also what scares me. the unknown.

Soul mates are different than twin souls. Neither have to be romantic, but we have many soul mates and only one twin.

A soul mate is a separate soul that you have known from previous encounters. They could have been relatives or romantic partners, but there is usually unfinished business between you. Twins are made of the same stuff as you, they are the female counterpart to your male energy or vice versa. And that energy isn't related to your gender.

Once the unfinished business has been resolved in a soulmate relationship, you both tend to go your separate ways. If there are a lot of issues that need resolving, you may never separate, or may meet again in a future life

A twin always has a connection to you, and eventually you reunite and become whole, either in the physical world or in the spirit world.

At least that's how I understand it.

There are so many different kinds of soul connections. For that reason alone I don't think too much into them even if I've written a lot about them.

Keep in mind that anyone who makes us feel a specific positive, re-affirming group of emotions is always going to be a part of us being open to seeing patterns into life. Positive emotions breed instinctual thought. When we feel like bonding, we look for meaning. There is less metaphysical involvement in that and it's far more physical.

What I try to avoid with "spiritual" writers and articles is they try to divorce the physical side of it entirely with the "surrender" talk but that's just me.

Last year we almost split up over it. We did talk about it, and quite frankly the idea of splitting up was too physically painful for both of us. We both sobbed like babies for 6 hours while we were arguing.

I really am not sure what we have left to work on...we've both changed for the better because of this relationship. We are still both learning to give more to the other (there was a long period of time recently...7 years...that we were literally just roommates) and on that front things are better.

I am just going with the flow at this point, because I don't really know if this is the last relationship I'll ever have in this life or not. If it is, I'm happy with that but I do feel like something is missing. There definitely is love, the real kind, which is more than some can say. And he's a good guy, no doubt.

I have felt it three times. All men who gave me the same feeling.

All I can say is that it felt like a "tug" or "tickle" in my brain - like a little boy pulling a little girl's braid. They looked at me and I at them, no words exchanged, no real feeling of acknowledgement, but just a recognition. A sense of... oh, there you are!

One was a fast and furious, passionate, fully sexual affair; he quickly became my best friend and it crashed and ended as quickly over one summer. We're still friends.

One broke up with me twice but admitted to not being able to stay away and not knowing why; finally he ended it saying he never felt comfortable in his own skin around me. I was so calm and comfortable with him.

One, well, it remains to be seen. It's the most powerful one I've ever felt. I feel like our hearts are tin cans connected by string, and we're playing a very long game of telephone. I saw the awareness hit him the same time it hit me, and that was pretty awesome.

literally me. i feel kind of uncomfortable around this guy. like I'm so attracted to him and set him on this petastel in my mind, but when I'm around him sometimes it just feels wrong. i wonder if he feels the same way, or if he feels comfortable.

i have anxiety about moving on. its annoying

When my father died one of my sisters was pregnant.
Four months later, a beautiful little creature was born.
She's so wise and very very intelligent for her age. Strange thing is she often asks her mother about her grandfather, and when she talk about him she looks up in the ceiling.
Everyone on my family have the feeling that we know her, from before she was born.
thats amazing 🙂

That's how I felt. We were just friends until he kissed me and then we could never be together after that without touching. The attraction was always there and I put him on a pedestal as well; I was dreaming about our life together and he most definitely was not.

I was forced to move on and it took a long time to get over. It took years before I truly realized we wouldn't have been happy together.

Thank you for saying that. He was a good lesson, and I don't regret it.

He met another girl, cheated on me with her, and ended up marrying her eight years later. We actually got married months apart.

It was my first true heartbreak, so it took a while. Over a year. I guess he spoke about me too much... I heard through the grapevine she was going to hire a PI because she thought he was going to get back together with me.

I realized through dating other people... they were either more forthcoming with their emotions, or were more relaxed around my family. He and I would have had too much miscommunication.

We bumped into each other three times in the six months after we broke up, and then I never saw him again.

Well, I will say this as well. I don't know if it will help your situation. I am a bit guarded with my feelings. I don't like to give too too much unless I am 100% certain that it is reciprocated. I was crazy in love with him... and I never told him. I just thought he knew because I was always deliriously happy just to be with him. When we broke up, he said he never knew how I felt; I left him guessing the whole time.

I feel like him and I have miscommunication as well. I dont feel comfortable telling him about my reservations, which may just be a learning part on my end. I also wonder how a relationship would progress (i.e. Would we get along with each other's families etc) it seems we come from very different backgrounds, even though we are alike individually.

I bumped into him about a month ago and I wonder if that was it. I say that bc we kept bumping into each other and that last time felt like the final straw where no action was done I either part so it may have just fizzled away.

I am very guarded with my feelings, and I know I pushed him away in a sense. It makes me think what if or why but I know what's done has been done and I don't know if anything could be different. I never truly told him how I felt because at the time I was confused myself. Hell, I still am. I definitely feel like I've left him guessing, but my mind plays tricks on me too and I've done a lot of guessing too. Sigh

Well, if it helps, my new motto in life is "Act without expectation." If you want to talk to him, reach out. But don't expect him to answer, and try not to be hurt if he doesn't. If he responds, wonderful; if he doesn't, perhaps your time together is done.
