Your point about people quitting without knowing what they’re facing? That’s incredibly common. More than the community wants to admit.
The harsh harshharsh truth is that a large % of the people who are part of the community today will probably have given up by this time next year. They’ll end up with a karmic who is trying to help them prepare, but they’ll get stuck. Maybe they will have done enough work to wind up with a soulmate instead.
In some cases (and it seems to be growing), people stay single and never really have a true relationship. Not something I would wish on anyone.
Emotional exhaustion, practical obstacles, loss of faith in divine timing. All valid reasons. I understand why someone would give up and the root cause all boils down to not knowing what the twin flame journey really is.
I think we’re supposed to be together, but I don’t think it is guaranteed to happen this time around. If the goal was guaranteed physical union in every lifetime you meet, yeah, you’d think it would be easier. But if the goal is accelerated spiritual evolution through the most intense mirror possible? Then the difficulty makes perfect sense.
I do believe that if you’re fortunate enough to meet your twin flame in this lifetime, then you do owe it to yourself to try.
