What Happens During the "Runner and Chaser" Phase?
The "runner and chaser" phase is one of the most emotionally intense parts of the twin flame journey. It occurs when the connection becomes overwhelming, and one partner pulls away while the other tries to hold on.
The runner typically feels emotionally unprepared or fears the deep transformation the connection requires. Meanwhile, the chaser experiences a strong pull to reconnect, often struggling with abandonment or rejection issues.
π Why One Twin Runs
The runner often avoids confrontation with unresolved inner wounds. They may feel emotionally flooded and retreat to regain control and stability.
π Why One Twin Chases
The chaser is usually more spiritually aware at this stage and feels an urgent need to fix the separation, sometimes unknowingly repeating cycles of fear and attachment.
π The Emotional Impact
Both twins experience pain, confusion, and personal growth. The dynamic triggers profound soul lessons that ultimately help heal emotional wounds.
π Moving Toward Reunion
As both individuals reflect and heal, the need to chase or run diminishes. When both surrender control and find balance, reunion becomes possible.
