The Perpetual Search for Connection: Why Are Narissists Often Appealing to Those Seeking Their Twin Flame?
As we navigated life, it's quite common for us to have thoughts and beliefs about someone who complements us, filling an unexplainable void in our existence. This feeling goes beyond mere control, and we can only truly understand it when we're on the journey of seeking our twin flame. Many believe that our twin flame appears during our most challenging times to make us stronger, better warriors, helping us grow and rediscover our inner strength.
However, it is often not until we embark on this journey that we fully grasp the significance of these connections. Our twin flame helps us regain the reality and strength we might have lost in the midst of life's hardships. They serve as a constant reminder of our true selves and potential, enabling us to find peace and meaning in life. Unfortunately, in the journey, it can be challenging to differentiate between reality and illusion, especially for those who have tasted a mere glimmer of such a deep and intense connection.
Why Do People Believing in Twin Flame Concepts Tend to Attract Narcissists?
Recently, I wrote a piece about people who believe in their twin flame often falling for a narcissist. This seemingly counterintuitive concept raises many questions. One prevailing viewpoint is that people who are on a journey of seeking their twin flame are more likely to fall for a narcissist, whom they still consider their 'runner' despite the clear warning signs.
A narcissist, by definition, is someone who is self-centered and demanding of constant admiration. They often engage in toxic behaviors and prioritize their own needs over others. Such individuals are known to move on quickly, leaving others to mend their broken hearts. A 18-month-long heartbreak is not uncommon, especially for those who are highly self-centered and lack genuine emotional connections.
From a logical standpoint, one might argue that if I truly believed I were so self-entitled and narcissistic, I would not be dealing with the healing process after a 18-month relationship. My recent attempts to make new friends indicate a sincere desire to heal and move on, but I must admit, the pain of loss lingers.
Real Connection vs. Simply Supply
Those who have not experienced the depth and intensity of a true twin flame connection might dismiss these sentiments as mere subjective feelings. However, for those of us navigating this journey, it is crucial to remember that a person might appear to be filling the 'supply' need rather than providing a genuine connection. This distinction is significant because it highlights the difference between a superficial boost in self-esteem and a profound transformation.
Being in a relationship with a narcissist can be deeply damaging, causing one to question their self-worth and perceive the world in a distorted manner. This is especially true for those seeking their twin flame, as they look for true, unconditional love and emotional support. A narcissist's behavior can exacerbate feelings of isolation and confusion, making it difficult for the individual to discern what is real and what is an illusion.
Support Networks and Complicated Emotions
Individuals on this journey often seek support from like-minded people, forming a network of understanding. These connections can bring solace and healing, but they are not a substitute for the deep emotional bond sought through a twin flame connection. It is important to recognize that reaching out for support does not mean we are playing 'childish games' with the person we seek. Many of us are simply seeking to understand and heal ourselves.
It can be frustrating for those who have not experienced a profound connection to understand or even validate the emotional turmoil faced by those in a twin flame journey. It is crucial to connect with reality and appreciate the depth of the experiences that someone else is undergoing, even if it feels overwhelming or incomprehensible.
In conclusion, the journey to find one's twin flame is often fraught with challenges, and the allure of a narcissist can be deceptive. However, by recognizing the value of genuine connections and seeking support, we can navigate the complexities of this journey and find our true selves.
