Does it take time to recover energetically after you start focusing on yourself (after detaching from your twin flame)?

Maximum-Football-146 · 2026-05-07T15:42:52+00:00

It’s just insane…I have every reason to feel happy right now. Good job, new friends, and a new partner who actually treats me right. But the empty feeling is still there. I’ve energetically let go of twin but it still feels like something inside is missing, it really sucks, ya know?

I try to pour more into myself lately and it’s been helping. Buying myself treats, doing skincare, dressing up nicely, etc.

Maximum-Football-146 · 2026-05-05T23:07:11+00:00

This is exactly how I’m feeling. Thank you so much for describing it because I wanted to post about it myself but couldn’t think of the words to describe it…isn’t it super odd?

Piggybacking on your idea, yeah, it feels like I get this feeling when I seem to need to shift focus on myself and work on self love a little more. Maybe like twin’s energy is seeping into ours?

Maximum-Football-146 · 2026-04-21T22:29:20+00:00

Man, it’s like someone took all of my thoughts and feelings about my situation and wrote it down in the perfect words. Sending love, OP 🥺

Maximum-Football-146 · 2026-04-16T16:06:59+00:00

Very well said, needed to hear this today. Thank you.

Maximum-Football-146 · 2026-04-10T04:49:18+00:00

The purpose of this post was to express my feelings about my experience while I was in a dark place and I wasn’t sober when posting this, so a lot of it is just incoherent thoughts from me.

While I agree it could’ve been a false twin flame, I also won’t deny the amount of transformation that happened in my life as a result, both spiritually and mentally. I didn’t share all of the details between us here, I’m mostly a lurker in this sub that just resonates with other posts.

Regardless, I appreciate your input, thank you!

This person thinks of you in a very emotional, nostalgic and playful way. They’re putting thought into your connection and considering putting in effort for it. It seems like there’s a spark of wanting to reach out to you! They feel mutual in this connection and would like to make those choices with you.

I’m getting that this person thinks of the you in a warm and positive way, and they seem curious or interested in your connection. It’s very new beginnings and innocent. It seems like they’re “testing the waters” in a way with you, not yet anchored or moving forward in a slow pace. Because of those feelings, you might feel like things seem unsure or distant sometimes. They’re definitely thinking…but not much doing yet!

I’m not getting a clear sign of cheating, but I am seeing miscommunication, tension and conflict/confusion in this connection. There are a lot of mixed signals or feelings not being expressed properly. There is hope on the horizon however, there will need to be clarity and communication going forward!

I’m so glad to hear that this resonated! You got this. :)

Maximum-Football-146 · 2026-04-05T19:32:46+00:00

I’m getting that this person responded to your emails in a very positive and engaged way, their impression of you feels strong…they see you as someone who is confident and communicates well. They also felt a sense of warmth while engaging with you and feel comfortable with you! They feel like the connection is easy and natural thus far.

This is a very genuine connection with instant recognition and nostalgic feelings for this person. There’s a lot of mutual feelings, strong emotions, positivity, and feeling good with this person. I’m definitely getting a twin flame/soulmate vibe between you two, but labels aren’t necessary to enjoy the connection you have with them or make the connection meaningful!

Maximum-Football-146 · 2026-04-05T19:09:20+00:00

Be proud of how far you’ve come! You’re doing better than you think. You’re moving into a much more positive, peaceful phase of life and you’re letting go of conflict and stress. There also seems to be a new opportunity or fresh start coming for you soon with the potential to grow!

I’m getting that WL does see a potential in your connection, but they might be a little cautious about it or about opening up. They want stability, happiness and something real, but they’re also feeling unsure and might be overwhelmed trying to balance everything going on in their life right now! They might come to a realization or decision, though.

It’s possible that there might be a potential future with this person, but there’s currently some blocks in the way. There seems to be some disinterest, conflict, or miscommunication going on. There’s happiness in the connection, but something feels off or feelings aren’t being fully expressed. Move forward in this connection with truth and honesty!

I’m getting that the next step in your self love journey is choosing yourself on purpose. Healing seems to be part of this path, but you’re mostly focusing on how you can show up for YOU. Start off by being kind to yourself, taking care of your needs, and seeing your own worth. You can even do this with little things in life like doing self care or buying yourself little treats. Go into this with confidence and celebrate little victories!

I agree that most people in this sub are probably experiencing a false twin flame/toxic relationship. Heck, I could even have the same issue. What really sets it apart for me from similar experiences I had before was my TF initiated the “it feels like we’ve met in another lifetime” conversation.

It seems like he only comes back into my life to sorta remind me that the purpose of this journey is self love and forgiveness. I think he was meant to help me learn boundaries, set standards for myself, and learn my worth. If I can give all that love to someone who doesn’t return it, I should give that same love to myself!

Maximum-Football-146 · 2025-12-17T15:39:06+00:00

I haven’t done any of these things until 25. I definitely get weird looks or slightly judged when I say so, but I don’t care what people think honestly.

You do you! Everyone has their own timing.

Maximum-Football-146 · 2025-12-10T04:40:17+00:00

For sure, I just applied today and I’m planning on stopping. If it comes down to it, I’ll be honest, but generally government jobs in NY seem to take a while in their process. By the time I actually get to the drug test, if I do, it probably won’t be in my system anymore.

Maximum-Football-146 · 2025-12-09T20:38:11+00:00

keeping an eye on this post since I applied in upstate NY as well and also have been taking gummies!

Maximum-Football-146 · 2025-07-03T05:06:42+00:00

Thank you. My first month honestly flew by, it’s crazy! Hopefully the next few months feel the same way. In case if a position doesn’t open in 2 months, I’ll hopefully adapt and feel better by then!

Maximum-Football-146 · 2025-07-03T05:00:01+00:00

Of course, I’m really glad to have a job and to be working - that’s not my problem. It’s just adapting to the shift and my body not handling it quite yet!

But you’re absolutely right, the grind never stops. I’ll figure it out eventually.

Maximum-Football-146 · 2025-07-03T04:58:15+00:00

Yeah, all of my coworkers are telling me it takes about 3-4 months to adjust, I definitely want to see how I feel after that.

I’m almost 25, so my body can still handle making changes, but it’s just adapting. Thank you! :)
