There’s common rhetoric in “Twin Flame” communities that says the runner/chaser dynamic is something to be avoided. Not only is it painful, it probably means you’re doing something wrong. You’re too attached to your counterpart or to the outcome. This dynamic is an indication that something is going poorly. Well, I’m here to tell you that — in my experience — it was exactly the opposite.
My Experience of Runner/Chaser
I never expected to care this much about the runner/chaser dynamic. In the past few months, I’ve been pushed into running from my divine counterpart three times. And I do mean I was pushed. As in, my spiritual team (guides, angels, etc.) told me to reach out in order to move things forward and when I did, I was hoping that my counterpart would be open to communicating and connecting.
Instead, I was rejected thrice over.
That rejection was so painful that I felt myself putting up walls, curling into myself to protect my heart from even more devastation. I couldn’t think of my counterpart, couldn’t keep faith for this journey; all I could do was cry and try to take care of myself as I tended my wounds. That was me energetically running from this connection.
