My life has forever been changed by my twin flame journey. Through every stage—both the ups and the downs—I’ve learned huge lessons and only grown closer to my twin flame.
In this article, I’m going to talk about everything I’ve learned on my twin flame journey as a male, and explain what exactly it means to be the “divine masculine” in a twin flame relationship.
Common male twin flame feelings
Before we get started, I think it’s really important to mention that every twin flame journey is different. There are no two journeys that look alike, and my personal journey is not the same as anyone else’s.
With that in mind, these points aren’t a “one size fits all” guide. This article will give you valuable information, a way to begin personal introspection and growth along your twin flame journey.
As well as learning about the main male twin flame feelings, have you considered getting a real and genuine psychic reading to find out what this means for you personally?
I know how important it is to stay away from fake ones.
That’s why I recommend Psychic Source. They provided me a unique insight into where my life should go, including who I was meant to be with.
Having tried several online psychics, I think they’re the most caring, compassionate and knowledgeable psychic network out there. Not only will a genuine psychic tell you more about your twin flame emotions, but they can reveal all your love possibilities.

1) Being “less in touch” with your journey
It’s fairly common for the masculine twin flame to be less in touch with the twin flame journey, especially at the beginning. It’s usually the feminine flame who becomes aware of the nature of the relationship first. The one who first learns about it, what it means, and begins the awakening.
That’s not to say, of course, that as the masculine flame you never become aware of the true nature of the relationship. Especially as the two of you begin the long journey together, you’ll become more and more aware of what’s going on.
However, don’t be surprised if you find yourself a little bit behind your twin.
Just remember, it’s never too late to start doing research, learning more about twin flames, spirituality, and growing as a person. The more growing you do, the more growing your twin flame will do.
You’re fully connected, remember?
Here’s a good look at some psychic signs that your twin flame is just about to enter your life.
2) What it’s like being the runner (and why the divine masculine often runs)
Being the runner in a twin flame relationship is often misunderstood by others.
How so? The common idea tends to be that you’re running from the relationship because you’re afraid of commitment—or something similar. However, in many cases that couldn’t be further from the truth.
Most often, the runner is deliberately moving away from their twin flame because they feel the need to “protect” their twin from harm. From themself, because they believe they’re damaging.
This has to do with the fact that they aren’t spiritually ready, and need to face some personal demons to grow.
In my personal journey as a runner, I’ve at times felt unworthy—so I would preemptively leave my twin flame behind. The idea was that I was protecting her.
The divine masculine is often the runner because of this thought process. This idea of self-sacrifice (really just self-sabotage) and the need to protect the feminine flame is often partial to the divine masculine, and not the feminine.
If you’re unfamiliar with those terms, don’t worry, I’ll break down what the divine masculine actually is later on in this article.
The difference in perspective between twin flames can lead to quite a few different misunderstandings, often deep ones, and many hurt feelings, often very painful for both flames.
Because of these misunderstandings—the need to run, and fear of facing personal growth—the divine masculine flame will often become a catalyst for the separation phase. Though, as we’ll talk about, it hardly makes them the only one to blame.
In any case, the desire to run from the relationship is a common male twin flame feeling that’s really helpful to understand. Once you know this about yourself, you can learn from it and grow.
3) Being blamed for the separation phase
Oftentimes the male twin flame is blamed for the separation phase. While in some instances this might be the case, it’s not always true. In fact, it can be just the opposite.
Let me explain: If the runner runs, it’s usually because they’re actually running from themselves. Many times it has nothing to do with their twin flame, at least not directly.
To put it another way: they just aren’t spiritually ready.
But, that doesn’t mean they’re to blame for the separation. You are both responsible for your union, and for your separation. If you’re currently in a separation phase with your twin, it’s because both of you have spiritual growth to do.
There’s not just one person at fault; playing the blame game won’t do you any good.
Whoever is doing the chasing may have a slight leg up on the spiritual growth; however, both flames should do everything they can to learn from their separation phase.
Wondering if your twin flame will ever come back? Here’s a look at some reassuring reasons they will, and what you can do to help.
4) The need for logical attraction
One of the most common male twin flame feelings is the need for there to be some kind of logical attraction between the twin flames.
What does that mean?
It means that for the male twin flame, the need for it all to make sense is often stronger. For instance, their twin flame should be around the same age, should be their typical “type”, the kind of partner they’re used to or prefer, and so on.
But what’s often the case with twin flames is that the connection is unusual and unique. It’s often what makes these relationships so special.
It could be that the age difference isn’t something you’re used to. It could be that you can’t exactly picture yourself with this person. They may even be married. Or it could even be that their gender is different than you expected.
No matter the case, the need for logical attraction is both an indicator of male twin flame feelings, as well as a common weakness for them.
Here’s a fascinating look at some psychic signs that your twin flame is thinking about you in a sexual way.
5) Feeling like you’re not good enough, or unworthy
While this is many times the reason a runner runs, it warrants its own point. That’s because it really is one of the most common, and strongest, male twin flame feelings.
In other words, if you’re feeling this way, you’re not alone.
Feeling unworthy in a relationship can be difficult and cause a lot of strain, no matter what kind of relationship it is.
As is true with most things, the fact that this is a twin flame relationship only amplifies those feelings and makes them more challenging.
If you’re feeling unworthy, it’s male twin flame feelings that you can overcome and learn from.
Take it from me, someone who has struggled a lot in the past with this, and someone who even still has to be careful I don’t fall into old ways of thinking. It can be a daily struggle.
So much about feelings of worthlessness can be solved by reworking the way you view yourself. Once you’re comfortable facing those feelings of unworthiness and overcoming them, you’ll be closer than ever with your twin flame.
And then, you’ll be able to move on to whatever stage of the journey is in store for you.
Here’s a look at a great article highlighting some common twin flame relationship problems and how to solve them.
What also helped me face and deal with my struggles was Psychic Source.

Facing your own demons isn’t fun, but it didn’t faze the psychic I spoke to at all.
They can help you in text chat, a call or a video call and it costs much less than you might think.

6) The struggle to be open and vulnerable
It’s common for male twin flame feelings to center around difficulties being open and vulnerable.
Let’s face it, most guys have difficulties being vulnerable. There’s a fear of appearing weak, of revealing sensitive places inside of us. We open ourselves up to get hurt, and we’re afraid of it.
It’s okay, though, it’s not always a bad thing to be wary of getting hurt. Especially if you’ve been hurt before.
However, it’s a different story when it gets in the way of intimacy. When, no matter what, we can’t open up.
In other words, it becomes a problem when we put ourselves in denial of our own feelings, ignore them, and hide how we truly feel.
This leads to a lot of issues, especially in a twin flame relationship. And, to be frank, no matter what we do, we can’t hide from our twin flame.
They know us intimately, sometimes even better than we know ourselves. Henceforth, this refusal to be open with them can drive a wedge between two twin flames.
It’s happened to me before, and it led to a deep, long-lasting separation. As soon as I was able to be honest with myself, I was able to have a twin flame reunion.
Here are some surprising signs that your twin flame reunion might just be closer than you think.
7) Dealing with equally strong emotions
All relationships have their ups and their downs, their moments of intensity and passion, anger and frustration.
However, as I’ve mentioned earlier, these ups and downs are intensified in a twin flame relationship.
It’s like a regular relationship, but on steroids. In other words, you both have equally strong emotions, and that might seem surprising.
You may be taken aback by how much this person wants you in their life because you want them just as equally.
All of your male twin flame feelings are matched by your counterpart. It can leave you feeling appreciated, seen, and understood.
On the other hand, it can also bring intense negative emotions to the forefront. Remember, a key element to any true twin flame relationship is the intense way you challenge each other to grow: as people, as spiritual souls, and as two parts of a whole.
In that way, then, dealing with equally strong emotions can be scary for the divine masculine. It can be alarming, in different ways. Just remember, these male twin flame feelings are normal to be having.
It’s likely that your twin flame is having similar ones. The best part about a twin flame journey is that no matter how alone you feel, you’re never truly alone. You’ll always be connected to your twin, in one way or another.
Twin flame relationships can bring us some of the most intense feelings we’ll ever experience. Here are some really great things you can do when your twin flame connection is too intense.
Common traits of the divine masculine flame
While the divine masculine flame is most often biologically male, that’s not always the case. With such an ancient and powerful connection as is the case between two individuals in a twin flame relationship, things like gender, age, and distance are far less important than the connection itself.
So while in this article I’ve often referred to the divine masculine as the “male twin flame”, it’s not to exclude any gender orientation.
In a similar way to yin and yang, there’s a divine masculine and a divine feminine. The gender and sex of who usually fills the role can change from one relationship to the next.
However, there are common traits shared by the divine masculine flame, regardless of which person it is. Let’s take a look at some traits of the divine masculine.
1) Protective
The divine masculine flame is, generally speaking, going to be more protective. This is why, as we’ve talked about, they may run. As a form of “protection,” they want to shield their twin flame from the potential harm they would cause, as they don’t feel worthy. This is usually a negative thing.
Their protective nature can also manifest in other ways, too. For instance, the divine masculine may always make it a point to be there whenever the divine feminine flame is ailing, needs support, or help.
They will be there when the chips are down, they will offer any and all support unfailingly. This makes the divine masculine intensely loyal and dependable.
2) Courageous
The divine masculine twin flame embodies courageousness. They are fearless, daring, bold, and unafraid. It’s part of why it seems like such a contradiction when they run away, or fill the role as a runner.
But when they’ve faced their inner demons, the divine masculine flame will reappear in the divine feminine’s life in a blaze, completely devoted, unashamed of the relationship, and eager to be a part of the incredible twin flame journey.
They will inspire the divine feminine in so many ways with their courageousness.
Here’s a great article that looks at a bunch of things you should do if you want to live a courageous life without regrets.
3) Stubborn
The divine masculine flame is often the one to be the most stubborn. They tend to see things in a certain way, do things in just such a manner, and because of this, they can be resistant to change.
It’s part of the reason why they may find themselves a step behind their divine feminine flame in their spiritual growth. Their stubbornness makes them resistant to change, at least at first.
This dogged manner can manifest itself in all kinds of ways. When the divine masculine learns to harness and work with these qualities, they are able to become powerful and fully realized.
Accepting the fact that life is defined by change is only one thing of many that can help you be fulfilled. Here’s a look at some other brutal truths to help you get the most out of life.
4) Problem-solver
The divine masculine has a brain for problem-solving. The ability to see solutions, not problems can be a huge asset for the divine masculine.
It can provide safety, reassurance, and great quality of life for both twin flames.
However, this trait, left unchecked, can easily get out of balance. There’s more to problems than just solutions. Sometimes it’s okay to think about them, talk about them, and about the way they make us feel.
Not everything needs a solution, in fact, not everything has a solution. You can’t fix everything.
Keeping this in mind is great advice for the divine masculine flame.
5) Hard to read
The masculine twin flame is often a bit of a mystery. They can easily get lost inside their heads, in their own world. For the divine masculine, there’s a lot on their shoulders.
In some ways, they’re idealists and wish for the world to be different than it is.
With that in mind, they may often seem distant, hard to read. There’s a lot going on in their minds, and they feel things deeply, even if they don’t show it on the surface.
This can actually be a huge strength for the divine masculine.
However, it’s important for this flame to always be open with their counterpart, the divine feminine. There’s no hiding from them, so there’s no need to be mysterious or refuse to open up.
Being open and clear with the divine feminine will only strengthen and forge the bond ever tighter between twin flames.
Redefining the masculine
“Learned masculinity” is an important concept to understand when it comes to a twin flame relationship.
How so?
Learned masculinity can lead to difficulties and attachments that can get in the way of a true connection with our twin flame. As an example, many males often feel trapped by common definitions of masculinity that are present in society today.
This can lead to feelings of alienation, loneliness, and frustration.
I’ve been there before myself. In the past, being biologically male as well as being the divine masculine flame has led to a strong desire to fit into a more “traditional role” of masculinity. However, I just don’t. The way I express myself, enjoy intimacy, and interact with the world is in many ways extraordinarily feminine.
I’ve stepped away from my learned masculinity and been happier for it. Importantly, my twin flame and I have drawn even closer than ever before.
To conclude
Hopefully, this epic guide to male twin flame feelings has given you some valuable information for your journey.
The twin flame journey is a long one, at times an arduous and confusing one, but it is one of the most rewarding and fulfilling relationships out there.
When you truly unite with your twin flame, you’ll be able to not only embrace your true self and feel genuinely fulfilled, your light will be able to help others, as you find your true purpose and understand your role and goals in life.
If you’ve felt any of these common male twin flame emotions, you’re not alone. Many of us feel like we’re less in touch, like we’re always being chased by our flame as we try to face our inner demons.
We are often blamed for separation phases, even if that isn’t the case, and end up feeling unworthy. Being open and vulnerable is a difficulty for us, as is trying to understand the intensity of our emotions.
But here’s the good news: Understanding this about ourselves is the first and often most difficult step. Once we understand these feelings and make ourselves aware of them, we can start to adjust our thinking, and use these weaknesses as strengths.
Further, when we understand the common aspects of the divine masculine, we can use these attributes to aid our spiritual growth, instead of hindering it.
And remember, at the end of the day, the journey is a long one. Enjoy every second of it as you draw closer with your twin flame, with every minute that passes.
