Welcome, and honestly your English is great, don’t worry about it.
You already know the answer to twin flame vs. karmic. Karmics repeat unhealthy patterns like codependency or power struggles, and they fade once the lesson hits. Twin flames have a pull that never dies, and surviving 20 years of zero contact at full intensity is huge.
That deep knowing is the mirror, it shows your strengths and fears, scaring the runner off because it’s too real. A karmic wouldn’t roar back after two decades. Plus, he’s sparking massive growth: ending your dead relationship, self-reflection, spiritual search. Twins push that, even through pain. Karmics just reopen wounds.
Trust your soul on this.
