I dont know either to be honest, but I am gaining a little understanding in that I think we have lots of soul friends and maybe one twin flame, self or whatever they call it. I sometimes get a bit p***** off with all these names, does anyone else?

Okay, having gone back to a few past lives of late, I believe we meet lots of others who we were with before,and they could be sould mates or friends, but the one, the twin, is the one who we could choose to be with for love, lessons, the agony, ecstasy etc etc. I used to think that a soul mate was all about romeo and juliet stuff - ha ha, I woke up guys, I think the one, is the person who you can hate as much as you love at times.........I think that is real love, or twin self etc xxx

I also think that is the reason I was always searching and getting into 3 marriages, I thought that it was gonna be hearts, flowers, and all that superficial stuff forever - but now I know what real love is, wished Id learned a little sooner (I also didnt realise it was about self love and acceptance either), inasmuch as I would never have been happy with another till I reached that inner thing!!!! Oh well lads and lasses never too late to learn hey?? x

Yep, Sue... I agree with you again...

The way I understand it, Soul Mate can be anyone you have shared a lifetime with… Anyone… It’s another soul who you have met before… There are many of them…

Twin Falme or Twin Soul is your other half. A soul that was created at the same exact moment as yours, as part of yours… It vibrates at the same frequency as yours because it has the same composition, it is a continuity of your own soul. Finding it, reuniting with it gives us a unique feeling of completion… Getting to that point may be difficult and painful, it may require sacrifices… above all, it requires inner growth…

There is only one Twin Soul, your Twin Soul… It’s a Soul Mate, a very special one… The only one that is exactly your other half, made of your own stuff.

I’m not sure either, but this might help.

THREE KINDS OF SOUL MATES

Did you know there are three main kinds of soul mates?

They are: Karmic, Companion and Twin Flames. Study the different kinds and discover which category your soul mate falls under. This will give you a broader understanding of why he or she has come into your life. To help you, I will explain the differences.

KARMIC SOUL MATE

The karmic soul mate experience is very common. You can have many of these in a lifetime. They enter your life to teach you an important lesson. Karmic soul mates can be co-workers, family members or close friends. One young woman particularly close to me comes to mind. Her name is Amanda Jane, and she is about twenty years my junior. She jokes that I must be her mother from another life. What makes our friendship special is that we touch on a spiritual level.

I often wonder why Amanda was brought into my life. We are very close, but what lesson am I to learn from her? To enjoy life again? Amanda comes from a dysfunctional family. Am I here to teach her a lesson? Am I to show her that she is loved and cherished? It can and does work both ways.

Sometimes karmic soul mate relationships can be romantic in nature; but if so, they won’t last long. That is because these relationships are solely meant for learning lessons and for growth rather than for obtaining a life partner.

Another thing we must keep in mind is that not all karmic relationships are human. Sometimes, pets we consider to be special members of our family can display the same karmic characteristics as humans. An example of this is Avis Townsend’s story “Back With Eli” in the karmic section of the book. Ms. Townsend’s story shows there are special relationships we can have with our pets to the point where the bond between pet and human becomes so deep it’s hard to dismiss it as anything other than the true karmic soul mate relationship.

Another point to remember about karmic soul mates, as well as other kinds of soul mates, is that each one, whether human or animal, comes into our lives for a reason and to teach us a lesson about ourselves.

COMPANION SOUL MATE

A companion soul mate relationship can be a relationship that is romantic in nature. It involves your wife/husband or someone you are intimate with. Oftentimes, these soul mates are not destined to be with us forever but, like Karmic soul mates, are brought into our lives for a purpose.

It is possible to spend a lifetime with your companion soul mate if you haven’t met your twin soul. However, when the twin soul is found, the companion soul mate relationship could suffer. When this happens, the companion soul mate relationship is generally short-lived or, if it continues, a non-satisfying one. However, this is no reason to jump ship when it happens. Remember, there is a reason your companion soul mate is in your life (for example, so you can raise children together).

When your twin soul comes into your life and you are in a companion soul mate relationship, it is important that you take things slowly. It may be that the companion soul mate relationship will come to an end—or it may not. One thing you must keep in mind is that ending an existing relationship solely because one feels one has found one's twin soul is never a good idea, because over time you will realize that both associations are meant to be and both have an important role in your life.

An interesting aspect of the companion soul mate relationship is that we put more of our energies into it. The karmic soul mate relationship tends to go at an easy pace, without much effort from either partner, as it does with twin souls. The companion soul mate bond requires more work on our parts to sustain a healthy, loving atmosphere.

TWIN FLAMES

This is the highest form of soul mate connection. Your twin soul is your other half; to find your twin soul is like finding yourself. We go through our life searching and searching, and what we don’t realize is that we are looking for someone just like us. Sometimes, we find them in this life and, other times, in other lives.

I believe they are always around, but for some reason it is not apparent. Perhaps we close our eyes to them. We don’t listen and observe. We go through life at such a hectic pace we don’t stop and take in things that would otherwise be apparent, so the presence of a soul mate could hit us flat in the face and we wouldn’t even know it. This is sad, because we have missed that one, rare opportunity for total bliss and happiness.

WaterNymph -- Thanks for the post! I have been reading extensively on that subject lately, I cannot actually say that I have amassed what would be considered solid knowledge on it yet, but just from the basics that I have read, it actually explains a lot of things.

And what is even more incredible is it ties in with 'past lives' (which I don't know much about) as well, and it explains the sometimes hard to explain "a soul has no gender" issue -- you can meet soulmates here to help you irregardless of their gender, although I am not sure on the Companion, and Twin Flame of the same gender? But if souls have no gender, then I guess the question itself is a fallacy?! HELP! lol

Reading and thinking in a loud voice.
