Karmic soulmate vs twin flame: 12 essential differences

What’s the difference between karma and a twin flame?

Sounds like an easy question to answer, right?

Well, it has been for a lot of people who come across this term for the first time.

Although both are commonly used in spiritual circles nowadays, there are a few major differences that you should know.

Here are 12 essential differences between karmic soulmate and twin flame.

1) Desires

A karmic soulmate is looking for a soulmate in order to complete a certain karma.

Or release an unhappy experience from their past or clear certain unhelpful emotions out of their way.

They have had some kind of unsatisfactory experience in the past, and they feel the need to resolve it before moving on to another level of existence.

The twin flame is not looking for you because of your karma; they’re looking for you because they want to fulfil their destiny and share something beautiful with you.

They are looking for love, acceptance, appreciation and admiration.

They are looking for someone who will be able to match them vibrationaly and give them what they desire at this point in their existence.

When you are in a karmic soulmate relationship, it usually starts off with great attraction and chemistry.

You feel a strong pull towards the other person and you find yourself wanting to see them as much as possible.

However, when there is no longer any sexual desire between you two, this can be a big red flag.

This is because when your twin flame enters into your life, it tends to be more about love and friendship than sex.

There will still be some chemistry and attraction, but it is not going to feel like an immediate rush of passion.

Some people may find this uncomfortable at first because they are used to their feelings being instant or intense.

2) Quest for soul knowledge

Karmic soulmates and twin flames have different quests for self-knowledge.

Karmic soulmates tend to “get to know” their twin flame by asking questions and reading their aura.

They come back to you because they realise that it was you who they were supposed to meet.

Their soul has either realised this and decided that it needs to make a move, or an outside force has intervened and is drawing them towards you.

Twin flame, on the other hand, just knows that you are their soulmate, thus reuniting them as one in life.

They will often use their intuition to feel this.

They may also be drawn to you because of something you did or said that was an apparent sign of a karmic soulmate.

Twin flames will be drawn towards a person who has much wisdom, compassion and understanding.

Your twin flame is looking for you to help them become more spiritually evolved.

They want you to help them grow as a human being and experience the world on a higher level.

They are here to learn, experience and grow in every way possible.

While they are aware of their true inner power, they want to understand the ways of the human mind better so that they can express that in every moment.

So while they will be there for you when you need them, they won’t be doing it because that’s what you need right now.

This is not their purpose here on Earth, but yours.

3) Purpose

Karmic soulmate is trying to complete a certain karma that they have created.

They may have come back to you many times before, but it just wouldn’t work out.

Maybe they have already questioned the purpose of their relationships with you, and they may not realise that this is the reason.

When they finally give up on trying to make it work, they will eventually realise that life is a much bigger journey to be travelled.

This is when they start to experience true joy and love within themselves.

They will start living for themselves once more, as opposed to living for somebody else’s agenda.

Twin flame, on the other hand, has no knowledge about their past karmic ties and no desire to clear any old karmas.

They’re here for a reason…and no amount of karma can change that fact.

Twin flames are here to love, be loved and be a part of a beautiful relationship.

Besides wanting to experience unconditional love, they want to help you experience it as well.

Their purpose is to bring peace, balance and harmony into your life.

When you need them the most, they’re here for you.

Not because of any past karmic ties or for any other reason than the fact that they care about you.

In order for karmic soulmates and twin flames to execute their purposes, they require different actions too.

I’ll explain more in my next point.

4) Actions

Karmic soulmate will do the following:

  • Will be attracted to you, but may not show it
  • Will try to understand you more in order to help them know themselves better.

This includes asking questions about their relationship with you in the past and present.

They also want to understand where you are and figure out what your hopes and dreams are for the future.

When they have a better understanding of these things, they will feel that they can contribute towards your happiness.

They can do whatever they feel is right and necessary while still considering your thoughts and feelings on the matter.

Twin Flame will in most cases:

  • Will be absolutely sure of their feelings and intentions even though there may be some hesitation on the surface.

They’re here to unite you and make things work out.

So they will not let any outside forces distract them from their main objective.

They are working to keep you happy, and this means loving you more than you can love yourself at times.

5) Relationships

A karmic soulmate is here to re-enter your life, clear out the shadows of their past and have a relationship with you.

It’s not always going to be the same old story.

Maybe you will get together, maybe you won’t.

Either way, it’s not always going to be about working out your karma by having a relationship with that person.

In fact, most of the time it is more about learning something in order to continue growing spiritually.

When your twin flame enters into your life, they are ready for an open, honest and committed relationship with you.

They are willing to take their time and understand where you’re coming from.

In other words, your twin flame will not be so quick with getting into a committed relationship with you.

And that’s completely fine.

This is because they want to make sure that you both feel safe and comfortable with the idea of committing your love to one another.

They are going to take things slow at the beginning because they don’t want to interfere with your present commitments or future plans.

6) Attraction

Karmic soulmates will be attracted to you, but they won’t always show it.

They may not know the reason why they feel the way they do.

So they might try to avoid you and ignore their feelings of attraction for a while.

This is so that they can figure out what it means for them to be attracted to you, and where this attraction has come from in their life.

Once they realise that this is actually a good thing for them and for their own personal growth, then they will start to accept how much you can mean to them.

Twin flames will accept their attraction to you from the very beginning.

They will not try to avoid it or deny it, because they want to make sure that you are happy and in a good place before they want you in their life.

When they see how happy and content you are, then they will be more willing to make the commitment that is needed for a love relationship.

Your twin flame is here to help you feel complete as a being and give your life meaning again if this was missing in the past.

7) Approach to resolving conflicts

Karmic soulmates will think ahead of themselves and they will take the approach of not taking things too seriously.

They may be joking more than usual, which can easily confuse you.

Yes, that’s right.

They will have a positive outlook on life, but they may appear to be more detached than your twin flame.

This is because they’re just trying to help you in any way that they can, even if it means simply coping with life instead of going along with the flow like most people do.

Twin flames are different from karmic soulmates because they take their relationships far more seriously than others do but only when it comes to you.

Twin flame will have an intuitive sense about you and your situation from the beginning.

While this may not be apparent since they are just trying to get to know you more, they will want to understand the best way of handling the situation.

They’ll want to help you through it, and if that means having a serious conversation about how to handle the situation, then so be it.

8) Intuition

Another essential difference between karmic soulmates and twin flames.

Karmic soulmates will have an intuitive sense about you, but they will not tell you anything.

In fact, they may lie to you more as a way of trying to help you in the best way they know how.

They don’t want to alarm or scare you so when there is something on their mind that they think might disturb you, they’ll keep it from you.

But, what this means is that it’s up to them to figure out exactly what their intuition is telling them and how the intuition can help them understand themselves better.

Twin flames will tell you the truth from the beginning before any other relationship is formed.

In fact, your twin flame already knows what their intuition has been trying to tell them about you and your relationship with them.

They are clear with their intentions and they want to be around you as a person who can help them grow spiritually.

To add on, they will be able to tell you how they feel and how they want their relationship with you to develop.

It’s safe to say that they are more focused on your future together rather than the present situation with their intuition.

9) Self-awareness

Twin flames will have a special quality about them that is hard to miss.

This is the way they will be able to communicate with you even though you may be in different parts of the world. (More explanation in my next point)

It doesn’t matter where you are physically, but spiritually they will sense what thoughts or feelings you’re having.

They will be able to tell how your day was and how things are looking for the future.

Twin Flame will already have a sense as to who you are in the past and present, but there will be many questions asked before things get serious with you.

Karmic soulmates are more aware of their feelings towards you and your relationship with them from the very beginning.

However, this does not mean that they will speak up right away and tell you directly that they have these feelings towards you.

They will be more subtle about it and try to figure out exactly how this relationship can work for you.

This is by sharing some story or detail about their past that ties directly into the present relationship with you.

You might not yet see it, but they definitely know what they are talking about when they bring it up.

This is because they have been working hard on themselves and their inner development before getting into a serious relationship with you.

They are definitely aware of what’s going on inside of them and what has helped them become the person that they are today.

10) Communication style

This is a huge difference between the two, especially when it comes to picking up on the subtle details of their communication.

Twin flame is a very different type of intimate relationship.

It is definitely known for its deep connection with each other but it can be challenging to put into words just how this works.

I’ve heard the term twin feeling used before, and I believe that this describes it perfectly.

The feeling of having someone so close to you who already understands what you are thinking or feeling is an amazing experience that we don’t get from everyone else in our lives.

Karmic soulmates usually communicate in a more traditional way.

They will tell you exactly how they feel about you and how they want to be with you.

There will be a lot of verbal communication with them, but in some cases, there may not be any at all.

This is because your karmic soulmate is a person who picks up on details that others don’t.

They will notice it if there’s a little twinkle in your eye when you’re looking at them.

Or if there is some type of discomfort you’re trying to hide from them.

They will also know immediately when something is bothering you and they want to do whatever they can to help solve the problem right away.

11) Ego and humility

Twin flames and karmic soulmates will have very different personalities.

Twin flames will have a high self-esteem but they won’t come up with all of these ideas in the beginning.

They will almost always be humble and accept others opinions whether they agree or not.

This is because they know that everyone can learn from everyone else, even if it’s their own opinion that may differ from yours.

Karmic soulmates are quite special in that they might appear to be quite self-reliant at first, but they will actually crave for your approval in the end.

They want to be around you because of a feeling or intuition that something great is going to happen and they want to experience it with you.

You’ll see that there is a strong connection between the two of you from the beginning but it doesn’t mean that everything will go smoothly from day one.

This is because with karmic soulmates, it’s possible to have more of an ego and a little bit more arrogance (sometimes).

Karmic soulmates will not stay with you after multiple relationships.

It’s not that they don’t love you as a person or that there is something wrong with you.

But their energy will shift and give them another chance at finding someone who will match up to their personality better.

So, what do you do if you’re in a relationship with a karmic soulmate?

You love them but it seems like they’re drifting away.

I mentioned Psychic Source earlier.

It’s important for you to get a real clarity on the situation so you can reach the conclusion you’re looking for.

12) Sex life

This one is spicy.

Twin flames will most definitely be better in the bedroom.

This is because they have such a deep connection with each other, and it’s not our natural instinct to want that with anyone else.

They are experienced and they know how to please you and make love to you like no one else!

And are willing to take the time needed to do everything well and they want you to know how much they enjoy being intimate with you.

This is different from karmic soulmate because it’s just not something that karmic souls love as much.

Karmic soulmates will be less likely to try anything new and will stick with something that they know works well for them.

This could mean that they will have a different form of sex life with you.

This is why it’s important to talk about what your needs are with each other before getting into a serious relationship.

It’s something that many people do not do nowadays but it’s something I recommend to help you make the right choice in who you want as your future partner.

Bottom line

Twin flames and karmic soulmates are very different from each other and it’s important to know the differences between them.

Having a higher understanding of the situation will help you determine what your next action will be in order to have a healthier relationship.

It’s a very deep and complicated topic that has many more layers.

However, you can always talk to someone, like Psychic Source, who can help you understand this topic better if you’re not sure what’s going on with your relationship.

Whether you choose to get rid of that person or keep them, you must understand what you are doing so it can be the best decision for everyone involved.
