During the Infinity Lion's Gate, I received confirmation to what had been outstanding for several months -- really a bit longer than that. It's been a long, complicated journey, which finally resulted in answers.

Now that I have that answer, and I'm working through my own fear, I'm legitimately trying to sort out how to tell him. I've noticed there's quite a lot out there for 'signs you've met your twin flame' but very, very little ( ... is there anything?) on how to have The Conversation that must inevitably be had, when you're ready to begin your relationship -- or, in our case, that dimension of our relationship.

Any advice? Any suggestions? Any pointers?

1) Why must such a conversation "inevitably be held at some point"?

I mean, what exactly would be taken away from the relationship in the absence of such a talk, if it were just never held at all?

Later - when we were discussing it - we looked at some quotes from Plato and poems from Rumi. They both discuss it in their writing/poetry.

As I understand TFs, I don't see any particular reason why the label of TF should need to be acknowledged or discussed in any way between the two. If you are TFs, you are TFs. Acknowledging and discussing it isn't going to impact or change the energy between you.

If you want to discuss it because of the research you've been doing then, like others have mentioned, just mentioning TFs casually might be enough to start a dialogue. I imagine you two love each other very much so having an open discussion about your research and beliefs shouldn't be scarey or difficult Don't stress about it and just let it happen naturally - imho, this tactic might be best.

This was not cool! I thought I'd lost my mind and was suddenly mentally ill and that my life was over - haha.

I was not a spiritual person at the time and I thought "wth is that?" and like I was losing my mind - but at the same time I also knew it was true. I also had my psychic gate blow open when we met and total past-life recall, and he was in them.

And then he called me several days later on my work phone to tell me "I know you, I've always known you, I always will know you - and I Love you my twin". And I almost dropped the phone because it took me longer than him to come to terms with all that - even though I knew it was true.

Oh, okay. That makes sense.

I'm extremely grateful for the opportunity Life dealt me this round - and I wouldn't want it any other way.

When we had our wedding - we did a spiritual ceremony from Hinduism based on the 7 steps. 2 Huge dragonflies were dive bombing our heads the whole time (it was outside in a garden) and we laughed a lot at the playfulness of that in between the tears of joy.

It felt like the celebration not only of the years it took to find each other and work out our path together - but of allll the cycles spent together and at last - a balanced union.

Just felt like adding in some happy bits to the story <3

Originally - we wanted to have a wedding that incorporated aspects of several of our different past lives that we shared. So I was checking out wedding rituals from different ancient cultures.
Then I saw the 7 steps - and though we don't recall a life as Hindus - it really spoke to us!
We changed it a bit - the vows. But we took 7 steps apart - and as each vow was recited, a tibetan bowl was chimed and we took another step closer. We also had rose incense burning, a flame that was lit at the start of the ceremony, a chalice to drink together from and some other rituals.

At the 7th vow - we were re-united and said some personal vows to each other.
To us - it symbolised our journey - of needing to separate physically in order to grow and as you say - become humble- (love that) so really appreciate and step into the union. Though physically apart, our love and dedication to each other and the soul work never faltered.

It also symbolised our triumph over all the lifetimes where we died in our service work before a romantic partnership of harmony was possible.
It was extremely moving. It was like...walking the timelines...as we walked those steps.

Then the woman who did our ceremony read this poem from Rumi:

Happy is the moment, when we sit together,
With two forms, two faces, yet one soul,
you and I.

The flowers will bloom forever,
The birds will sing their eternal song,
The moment we enter the garden,
you and I.

The stars of heaven will come out to watch us,
And we will show them
the light of a full moon –
you and I.

No more thought of “you” and “I.”
Just the bliss of union –
Joyous, alive, free of care, you and I.

All the bright-winged birds of heaven
Will swoop down to drink of our sweet water –
The tears of our laughter, you and I.

What a miracle of fate, us sitting here.
Even at the opposite ends of the earth
We would still be together, you and I.

We have one form in this world,
another in the next.
To us belongs an eternal heaven,
the endless delight of you and I.
