10 common twin flame relationship struggles (and how to overcome them)

The twin flame connection is a magical, intense, and often confusing love affair.

There are many layers to these relationships, and twin flames will have to overcome many challenges along the way.

Today, we’ll talk about 10 common twin flame relationship struggles and how you can overcome them!

1) Trust issues

In many relationships, trust is a foundation that is built over time.

However, in a twin flame relationship, trust can often be the first challenge.

Many twin flames will be skeptical of the connection, not fully understanding how two people could be so perfectly connected.

Other twin flames might be skeptical if the initial meeting involved a romantic encounter or sexual chemistry.

Trust issues can be a major roadblock in your twin flame relationship. After all, if you can’t trust your partner, it is really hard to open up to them.

A twin flame relationship thrives when both partner trust one another blindly. However, trust can be difficult to build when you are in a twin flame relationship.

The best way to build trust is by spending lots of time together and sharing as much information as possible.

If you find yourself struggling with trust issues, try to let go of your skepticism and open yourself up to the idea of a twin flame connection.

If your partner is experiencing trust issues and is having a hard time letting go of their skepticism, you may have to work harder to earn their trust.

Show them that you are trustworthy by being trustworthy. In time, the trust issues should resolve themselves.

It’s also important to remember that if you are struggling with trusting your partner, you need to ask yourself if they are causing the trust issues by being untrustworthy, or if you are scarred from a past experience and therefore can’t trust them.

You see, after having negative experiences, such as an unfaithful partner, for example, we might carry those wounds into a future relationship, even though our new partner has done nothing wrong.

If this is the case, you can work to heal your past wounds in order to move forward in your twin flame relationship.

The thing is if that wound is still there, it doesn’t matter how much reassurance you get from your partner, you will still struggle with trust issues.

The only way to heal the past is to face it and heal from it. This can be a long and difficult process, but it is important in order for you to move forward in your twin flame relationship.

2) Lack of communication

Communication is a vital part of any relationship, romantic or otherwise.

In twin flame relationships, however, communication is absolutely essential. Many twin flames will be communicating on a level that they’ve never experienced before.

In fact, some twins may even hear each other’s thoughts. Yes, you heard that right!

Twin flames share a psychic connection on top of their physical connection. So, if you are having trouble communicating with your twin flame, it may be because you are having a hard time communicating telepathically.

If that is the case, it can help to write down your thoughts and feelings in a journal or blog. This helps you get all of your thoughts out of your head and onto paper, where they are easier to communicate.

It can also help you discover what is bothering you in the first place. Once you have discovered this, talk to your partner about it!

The longer that you wait to bring something up with them, the harder it will be for them to understand where you are coming from and why it is upsetting to you.

If you can’t seem to communicate with your twin or they don’t know how to tap into your thoughts, try to be patient. It may take some time for your twin’s communication abilities to develop.

If your twin isn’t actively trying to communicate with you, though, you may have to take the initiative.

You see, especially if you haven’t met your twin flame yet, telepathic communication can be a great way to get things started.

What would a gifted advisor say?

The points we cover in this article will give you a good idea of what struggles you may face in a twin flame relationship and how to overcome them.

But since your situation is unique to you, the best thing you can do is get tailored advice.

The key, however, is finding someone trustworthy to speak to.

3) Conflicting life goals

It can be very exciting to get swept up in a twin flame connection.

However, some twins will experience feelings of uncertainty or disappointment if their life goals don’t align with their partner’s.

For example, one twin may be interested in going back to school and becoming a doctor in a city while the other may not have any interest in higher education and wants to move to the countryside.

Another example could be one twin wanting to start a family while the other doesn’t want children.

Now: even though twin flames are so similar in many ways, their life goals can still differ greatly, which can put a strain on the relationship.

It can be especially hard if the twins have already made plans with each other.

For example, one twin may have already bought an engagement ring, while the other has no interest in getting married at all.

If your life goals are clashing with your twin’s, it is important to discuss this with your partner. It’s important to talk about these differences early on in your relationship.

Asking questions like, “What are your dreams and goals for the future?” will help you get a better idea of where your twin is coming from.

Once you’ve discussed these differences, you can decide what to do next.

If the differences are major, you may want to end the relationship. If the differences are minor, though, you will probably be able to work around them.

The best way to do this is by being honest about how you feel and why you feel that way. Don’t be afraid of hurting their feelings, tell them your aspirations!

This is a great opportunity for you two to understand each other better and create a deeper connection.

If you are feeling pressured into changing your mind, remember that it is okay to stand up for what you believe in and not change who you are just because someone else wants you to.

The thing is, if your life goals simply cannot be aligned, that’s when you know that it’s probably best to break up.

You see, otherwise, one of you will always be compromising their happiness, and that’s not ideal.

4) Feeling trapped

Some twins will feel trapped in the relationship. They will worry about being tied down or losing their freedom.

This can be caused by a number of things – such as one twin feeling overwhelmed by the intensity of the connection.

If you are feeling trapped in your twin flame relationship, you may want to end it before you become resentful. Ending the relationship now will help you avoid feeling trapped down the road.

If you are worried about feeling trapped, start a conversation with your partner. Share how you feel and work out a solution that works for both of you.

For example, you could promise to get back together in a bit, but to take things slow for now.

The thing is, the twin flame connection is so intense, that it can quickly feel as though you are trapped. To avoid that, really communicate openly with your twin flame and take things slow.

5) The runner-chaser dynamic

There are a number of twin flame relationships that fall into the “runner-chaser” dynamic.

This usually happens when the struggle I mentioned above, feeling trapped, is not being talked about.

In this dynamic, the more overwhelmed twin is the “runner” while the more attached twin is the “chaser.”

Runners often push their feelings and emotions deep down. Instead of communicating how they feel, they will avoid their partner.

Because their partner is the only person they can really open up to, they may feel smothered by their partner’s attention.

Chasers, on the other hand, can become obsessive. They constantly want to be around their twin and may even pressure them more.

The thing is, the twin flame connection can feel like a lot at first, and so some people see no other option than to run from the relationship in order to avoid their deep feelings.

If you and your twin fall into one of these roles, give it some time.

The best way to do this is by communicating with your partner. Let them know how you’re feeling and work out a solution that works for both of you.

Being patient also goes a long way here.

Give your twin flame some time and if it’s meant to be, you will be together eventually.

6) Confusion and uncertainty

Twin flames can often be confused by their relationship. They may not understand why they are with the person they are with.

Why is my twin so different from me? Why is this person so different from everyone else?

As well as confusion, you may also feel uncertainty.

You may be unsure of the status of your relationship. Are we dating? Are we friends? Are we something else entirely?

This is normal in a twin flame relationship. You and your partner are experiencing something that only a few people ever get to experience.

In order to really understand your relationship, you both have to be patient.

Communicate with each other. Journal your feelings and thoughts. Doing so will help you better understand your relationship and work towards clarity.

The thing is, when you experience a connection this intense, you are bound to have some questions.

Taking it really slow and communicating the entire time about how you are feeling will be essential in overcoming these uncertainties.

That’s why I recommend getting a personalized reading from one of the gifted advisors over at Psychic Source.

I mentioned them earlier.

They’ve been a great source of comfort and guidance when I’ve faced issues in my love life, and their specialist advisers are well trained in the area of twin flame relationships.

So, what are you waiting for?

From giving you clarity on the situation to supporting you as you make life-changing decisions, these advisors will empower you to make decisions about your love life with confidence.

7) Irrational jealousy

Some twins will experience irrational jealousy, often due to trust issues.

They may become jealous of their partner’s friends or family members. They may also become jealous if their partner spends time with other people.

If you find yourself becoming jealous, try to recognize the jealousy for what it is. You may be feeling threatened by something your partner does or someone they are around.

Once you recognize the feeling for what it is, you can work towards overcoming it.

Try to communicate with your partner. Let them know how you’re feeling and why.

If you have trust issues, use journaling to work through your feelings. Journaling can also be a great way to open up a dialogue with your partner.

You see, when you are jealous, oftentimes the last thing you want to do is admit it to your partner, I get it. However, being able to be vulnerable is a huge key to overcoming jealousy.

Let them know “Hey, I am feeling insecure and jealous right now and I need some reassurance”.

This works because you are not jumping to blaming them for anything, and instead, you open up your heart, inviting them in.

8) Ending the relationship

Twin flames often end abruptly, and many people will wonder if these relationships were really twin flames at all.

However, it’s important to understand that not all twin flame relationships last a lifetime.

Sometimes, twin flames will end due to trust issues or life goals that don’t align. Other times, they will end because one or both of the twins were unhappy in the relationship.

If you feel like ending your relationship, you don’t need to justify your decision to anyone.

No one can tell you what you should do with your life, and you don’t owe anyone an explanation. That being said, you can still learn from your experiences.

Journal about your relationship and reflect on it. Journaling can be a great way to process your feelings and end a relationship in a healthy way.

You see, twin flame relationships don’t always last forever. It could be that you have already learned your lesson for this lifetime, and you and your twin will reconnect in the next life.

Or you are simply not meant to be together right now and need to give it a few months or years.

Whatever it is, don’t try to fight it. If you are truly twin flames, you will find your way back to one another, don’t worry.

9) Differences in life paths and beliefs

Twin flames may be extremely similar when it comes to their personalities. They may even look similar and be of the same astrological sign.

However, twin flames may have very different life paths.

If your life path and your twin’s are very different, you may find that you’re squabbling more often than not.

You may be getting into arguments about what you should do with your lives. You and your partner can overcome these differences by being open and honest with one another.

If you’re struggling with these differences, start a conversation with your partner. Let them know how you’re feeling and see if you can come to an agreement.

You can also look to alternative ways of meeting your needs such as meditation and prayer.

The thing is, if your life paths and beliefs differ greatly, that’s when it’s often a good idea to reevaluate the relationship.

If one of the twin flames doesn’t even believe in twin flames or spirituality, while the other person is obsessed with learning about it all, see if you can make things work.

Talking doesn’t help? Then you might not be ready for this relationship at this time.

10) You don’t know your life purpose

You may or may not know that twin flames often share a life purpose, which makes their relationship even stronger, because they can work on that purpose together.

Now: if you don’t know your life purpose yet, and neither does your twin flame, it’s a good idea to go through some kind of spiritual practice such as meditation.

You can also talk to a spiritual teacher or counselor, or you can even take a class on spirituality.

If you don’t know your life purpose, then you and your twin flame may simply need to do some introspection right now.

The thing is, once you have a shared life purpose, the relationship will instantly grow stronger and healthier, just because you have a common vision to work towards.

If it’s meant to be, it will be

Whatever struggle you are facing, remember this: if it’s meant to be, it will be.

You can try to overcome all these struggles, but if you still end up breaking up with your twin flame, just know that once you are meant to be together, you will find your way back to one another.

That’s the comforting thing about twin flames.

Hopefully, you should now have a good idea about the issues you may face in a twin flame relationship.

But if you’d still like to get more clarity on the situation, speaking to a gifted advisor is the best way to go.

I mentioned Psychic Source earlier. Based on my own personal experience with them, I know they’re the real deal. Their advisors are kind and genuinely helpful.

So, if you really want to get to the bottom of the issues you are facing, get in touch with an advisor and take your future into your own hands. I did, and it changed my life.
