Okay, so this is mortifying, but I need to know I’m not alone here… Ever since soul recognition hit, my body has been completely out of control. I read the thread on TF sexual energy spiking lately, and that’s happening, but we’re not together.
We’re in no contact right now, and I literally cannot function some days because the physical need is so intense… It’s not even just wanting sex… It’s like… my whole body remembers them and just craves them. I know it’s that stupid push energy thing feeding on itself, but knowing that doesn’t make it stop. If anything, it just seems to be getting stronger.
Please tell me this settles down eventually because I can’t live like this forever.

You’re definitely not alone, and no, this won’t be like this forever, but it does transform rather than just fade away.
What you’re describing with your body remembering them and the physical need being that intense during no contact… that’s textbook twin flame separation energy.
The sexual frustration during separation reaches really high levels and stays constant or even grows because your soul is literally responding to the lack of completion with your other half. It’s not regular horniness. Your root chakra is probably going crazy right now, and if they’re thinking about you sexually (which they likely are), you’re feeling their arousal on top of your own through the energetic cord.
The push energy does feed on itself. The more you focus on the lack, the more intense it gets. Over time, the intensity doesn’t disappear, it… shifts in quality. With healing work and surrender, it becomes more manageable. Less chaotic and overwhelming, more grounded and clear. You’ll still feel that magnetic pull and the sexual energy will still be incredibly strong, but you won’t feel like you’re drowning in it.
You’re definitely not alone in this, and it’s not mortifying at all. It’s incredibly common, and plenty of us have gone through similar situations, whether we’re physically together or in separation.
The physical side of it can be completely overwhelming and not like anything most people will be familiar with. Traditional attractions really don’t compare, so neither do those hangups. The body’s energy system is simply responding to their thoughts or feelings. This isn’t just about missing someone; it’s a full-body, energetic phenomenon that operates on a different level.
It does eventually integrate, but it takes time for your system to adjust to that level of intensity.
The body memory thing can be one of the hardest parts of separation to deal with (which is saying something).
Your nervous system literally formed new pathways from being with them (especially after soul recognition). Once you’ve had that level of connection, your body knows the difference and won’t accept anything less. One of the reasons that both the runner and the chaser can struggle with having intimate relationships with other third parties.
What makes twin flame sexual energy different is that it’s happening at the chakra level, not just physical.
Your base chakras are connected to theirs in ways that don’t happen with any other connection or relationship. That’s where the tingling, heat, or sudden waves of arousal when they’re thinking about you come from. In extreme cases, this means reaching climax spontaneously during separation because their twin is.
Yes… sometimes at rather unfortunate times. It can hit you out of the blue.
You mentioned it’s getting stronger instead of settling down. That’s actually normal, especially if you’re both doing healing work (even separately). The more blocks you clear, the more intense the connection becomes. The intensity amplifying means you’re moving in the right direction spiritually, even if it feels impossible physically for the moment.
The more you surrender to your path, the more this energy changes. Not that the feelings go away, but you learn to work with them instead of being controlled by them. Grounding exercises help. So does redirecting that sexual energy into creative projects. Your body is trying to tell you something about where you are in the journey.
First, breathe. What you’re going through is intense, but it’s also a sign of how deep this connection goes.
What you’re describing makes sense when you think about what’s happening to your body chemistry. You’re basically experiencing the most intense cocktail of love hormones your system has ever produced. After twin flame contact, your chakras align differently and your body operates at a higher frequency. When you’re separated, your system feels the incompleteness at a cellular level.
It’s basically emotional edging on the spiritual level. Your system is producing all these bonding chemicals from the deep emotional connection, but with nowhere for them to actually go. So naturally, your mind starts creating… let’s call them creative scenarios… to try to process all that energy.
The physical symptoms - the craving, the inability to function some days - those are real manifestations of what the community calls separation sickness.
The reason knowing it’s “push energy” doesn’t make it stop is because you can’t logic your way out of energetic reality. Your mind understands what’s happening but your soul and body are operating on a different level entirely. You can’t use logic and reason to get yourself out of this one!
Stop fighting it. The more you resist these feelings, the more power they have over you. When the waves hit, acknowledge them. Feel them fully for a few minutes, then consciously redirect. Physical exercise helps discharge some of that energy. So does spending time in nature - your root chakra needs grounding when it’s this activated.
It becomes more manageable as you progress through the stages, but only if you do the inner work as well.
Oh god, yes, this is exactly what I’m dealing with too.
What you’re describing sounds like when you’re both unconsciously manifesting each other.
With mine, the physical intensity would hit at random times. Like I’d be grocery shopping and suddenly get this wave of pure… need. Had me gripping the cart handle. The separation makes it worse sometimes. It’s like the energy has nowhere to go physically, so it just builds and builds in your body. Seemed to happen most often when HE was thinking about me, too.
We were creating this feedback loop without even trying. Body memory is brutal. Mine would physically turn toward them in crowded rooms like a compass, even when I was actively trying to avoid them.
It does ease up a bit, but it comes in waves. Some weeks I feel relatively normal, then out of nowhere, my whole body remembers them and every cell just lights up.
The nights are the worst because that’s when all the defenses come down and the longing just takes over. When it gets really overwhelming, sometimes just acknowledging it helps. Like ‘okay body, I feel you, I know what you want’ instead of fighting it. Fighting it just seems to make the energy more chaotic and desperate.
This is just what happens when souls recognize each other and bodies remember what home feels like.
I feel this so deeply. The craving is unlike anything I’ve experienced with anyone else. Like every cell in my body is calling out for her specifically.
I don’t think I have ever… craved someone like this before.
I wish I could tell you it gets easier, but for me, it’s only gotten more intense the longer we’ve been apart. The only thing that sometimes helps is channeling that energy into creative projects or intense exercise, but even that’s just temporary relief.
Sometimes this comes up so often, I think the entire collective is on the same wavelength.
If they’re going through sexual frustration too (which runners usually are, they just hide it better), you’re picking up on that through the cord. Your root chakras are connected. When theirs activates, yours responds.
It does come in waves though. Some weeks were manageable, others I felt completely taken over by it.
This hits me hardest when I’m completely depleted - after exhausting days when my body would normally have zero interest in anything physical. That timing seems too specific to be random twin flame arousal waves.
When we’re exhausted or run down, maybe our body is trying to generate that high-vibration energy we associate with our twin because it knows that frequency helps us heal or recharge. But since we’ve only ever felt that specific vibration through sexual connection with them, our body interprets it as arousal even when it might be something else.
Maybe we’re so conditioned to experience their energy through a sexual lens that we’re missing other things our body might be trying to tell us.
Just a thought, because the timing of these waves when we’re at our lowest energy points seems too coincidental to ignore.
I’m don’t know if it’ll “settle” for you, we’re all different, but for me, it absolutely DID NOT settle
Nope…it only intensified until I realized what I was feeling was my twin. Eventually, the sensation grew until we were both engaging with eachother in full-on sexual telepathy every single night at the same time, in some the most incredible experiences of my life. Take your best sexual experience, and multiply it by 10,000. Not just physical sensation, but on a soul level that can’t be replicated with anyone but your twin. My theory is, Quantum Entanglement between two linked energy sources (souls) interacting in a way that creates a crap-ton of positive, loving energy….and feels freaking incredible. That is why your entire body craves him…but its not just your body, it’s your soul craving union with him.
Yeah, it sounds nuts. You must experience it for yourself to understand. But another theory? If you’re feeling the pull strongly, it might be your twin thinking of your sexually. If intense, it might be them feeling pleasure (by themselves or somone else) while thinking of you. I see a lot of people shut down when this happens, but I embraced it, interacted with it, and it led to the most intense healing work I’ve done on my journey. In part because you are at your most vulnerable with being intimate (well, I am, at least) so therefore any triggers from your twin hit way harder, leading to greater healing. But also because the intense love energy created between us is incredibly healing. In my case, I believe the sexual energy was a call to deeper, more advanced healing.
So I’d suggest as an option…meditate and surrender to the sensations and see where it leads you. You might be called to experience the same thing.
EDIT TO ADD: “Grounding” exercises help to lessen the sexual energy if it’s unwanted. For me, the method that particularly worked was imagining roots, or cord, running from my root chakra or feet, into the Earth. Then imagining any excess energy running down those cords away from me to be recycled.
You’re definitely not alone in this, and what you’re experiencing is real. Something interesting about this energy - it seems to get worse when our twins are going through emotional extremes on their end.
During our separation, there were times when the physical pull would suddenly come out of nowhere, and I’d be completely overwhelmed. Later, I found out those exact times matched up with when my TF was either really depressed or thinking about me intensely.
The physical craving is a manifestation of their higher self trying to share thoughts they’re not ready for on the 3D.
The hardest part is that our bodies just respond automatically. There’s no conscious control over it. The energy has to go somewhere, and when we’re not together physically, it just builds up in our bodies.
The intensity doesn’t really settle down in the way you’re probably hoping. It transforms. What changes is your relationship to it and your capacity to hold that much energy without feeling like it’s destroying you.
Just wanted to say I see you and this is so valid. The fact that you can’t function some days isn’t weakness or obsession, it’s your nervous system responding to energetic separation from your twin. Be gentle with yourself while you’re in this phase.
I pulled the Sacred Sexuality card three days in a row last week, right before this intensity hit. The guidebook mentioned this energy is meant to awaken our creative centers, not just our sacral chakra.
For me it’s the dreams. They feel more real than my actual life sometimes. I wake up and my body literally aches for them.
Every time you energetically push toward them (even just through intense longing), they pull back harder. Your sexual energy ramps up, they run further.
The feeling of being touched is the weirdest part. I’ll be at work and get chills and goosebumps like someone just ran their hand down my back and kept going.
The physical craving is so intense that it literally rewires your nervous system.
Your body memorized their frequency and now constantly searches for that signal. It doesn’t care that you’re separated. If anything, the distance amplifies everything. The energy creates its own feedback loop. You think about them, your body responds instantly, and then that response triggers more thoughts, which trigger more physical reactions and the loop continues.
The catch-22 of horniness.
You’re simultaneously pushed away and pulled in, and your body just stays in this constant state of wanting.
When the intensity peaks and I find release, there’s often this overwhelming emotional wave that follows. Sometimes I literally sob afterwards - not from sadness, but from how intense it all is. It’s more than just physical.
Your body knows this isn’t just physical relief. They seem to have the key to access that level of intensity in you. The tears are like your soul acknowledging what’s happening beneath the surface.
What helped me was letting those emotional releases happen instead of feeling weird about them. Maybe keep some tissues nearby and just let yourself feel whatever comes up after. Sometimes giving yourself permission to cry through it helps process the energy rather than having it build up again so quickly.
Your body is trying to move something massive through you, and letting the emotions flow with it might give you slightly longer stretches of peace between waves.
Yeah, my mentor warned me about this when I first started going through it.
Your 3D is picking up on what’s going on between you in the 5D.
She told me that when one twin starts thinking intensely about the other (which they probably are if you’re feeling it this strongly), it creates this feedback loop that your body interprets as physical desire. Your soul recognizes what’s happening, and your physical self is trying to process it the only way it knows how.
She described it as the energy needing to find its equilibrium. When you resist or fight it, it just becomes more chaotic. This gets wilder before it smooths out.
You’re definitely not alone. This is so normal it’s almost universal with this connection. The physical intensity is unlike anything I’ve ever experienced with anyone else, and it just doesn’t fade.
My body literally reacts to just thinking about them - heart racing, skin tingling, this weird warmth that spreads through my chest. It defies all logic, yet my body responds like they’re right there.
With normal attraction, distance and time usually dial things down. But this? My body is permanently tuned to their frequency. Some days I feel like I’m going insane because my mind knows we’re not together, but every cell in my body is convinced otherwise. It’s exhausting living in this constant state of physical yearning that has nowhere to go.
OMG yes, you’re not alone! The physical intensity is crazy, especially after being intimate together. My body literally changed after our first time - like something got unlocked that I didn’t know was there. The physical responses are so strong now.
The energy builds after each time we’re together. Last time, my body did things I didn’t think were possible for me. And the way he looked at me during it… that deep stare that makes you feel completely exposed. It somehow makes everything more intense.
I’m always ready, always wanting. I have to take breaks and go calm myself down because the physical need becomes overwhelming just from memories.
