A True Emotion Mirror relationship is NOTHING like what is normally considered a “committed relationship” or “a marriage”
I feel the need to address non-True Emotion Mirrors1 on this website, as well, because they can easily cause issues here for themselves and others, not fully understanding what we are talking about here. Sometimes being helpful is not helpful at all, especially if you think you’re talking about the same thing, but are, in fact, talking about two very different types of relationships.
Although I use the expression “true love” a lot, doesn’t mean that all people interpret it the same way. What I refer to it as is whatever True Emotion Mirrors are, while, I mean it as opposed to what you’d consider a normal, lasting, committed relationship that is based on more a decision to stay together than, just that; true love… Which is an incredibly difficult thing to explain to someone who hasn’t experienced it for themselves. So here:
What are True Emotion Mirrors
Normally, most commonly, marriages are formed between soulmates, in my typology, I refer to them as Trail Companions* (in several subcategories). What this means, is simply that your current life spouse is someone who you’ve known in a previous life. Now, this doesn’t yet, in itself, mean anything. You’ve been partially compatible for potentially thousands of years, if not a million, and you spending yet another lifetime together won’t make a difference in that, you’ll just get used to it, that’s all. That becomes your expectation.
Now, True Emotion Mirrors are different. They’ve, first of all, an older connection than most Spousal Spirit Mirrors are. This is simply due to the fact that some True Emotion Mirror connections were made before civilization itself got started, some born along the way, but to form a Spousal Spirit Mirror connection, you NEED a culture that supports the idea of a legal marriage. You cannot get used to being married to someone if you don’t have a culture of marriage to create that setting. Marriage, in turn, is a relatively modern invention, and not a very good idea at that… But something that attempts to mimic the natural commitment that True Emotion Mirrors feel for each other, even if the ritualized marriage didn’t exist yet.
The True Emotion Mirror bond is something that pulls certain animal pairs together and makes them spend an entirety of their lives together, even though nobody is going to tell an Eagle to not make eggs with another female. Therefore, if you need some kind of an external system to keep you two together (rather than apart), you’re not True Emotion Mirrors. If there are people trying to keep you apart, my money is on a True Emotion Mirror bond… Like Romeo and Juliette, who didn’t want to be together just to spite their parents, like some non-True Emotion Mirrors probably would interpret that situation.
Most relationship advice is NOT written for or applicable to True Emotion Mirrors
What most relationship advice online and in books refer to, are these normal committed relationships and marriages, but I am NOT talking about that when I refer to True Emotion Mirrors – hence needing the fancy-sounding term to differentiate those two things. Most regular relationship advice fails miserably on True Emotion Mirrors – but is not all bad, it’s just that that advice is often geared toward how to STOP True Emotion Mirrors from becoming a threat to your marriage. True Emotion Mirrors are people who very much want to be together, to the greatest of the annoyance of those who want to keep them from doing just that. People who haven’t met their True Emotion Mirror often view that relationship as “dangerous”, “based on sex”, or “thrill-seeking”, or something along those lines. They also criticize True Emotion Mirrors for their habit of wanting to be alone a lot and cut themselves out of society to a large degree – initially, at least. True Emotion Mirrors do have a natural honeymoon period, not based on tradition, but as a natural consequence to meeting each other and making that connection complete – and the older they are when they become an official couple, the longer the honeymoon period – even indefinite… As if to a reaction to having been separate for entirely too long.
True Emotion Mirrors do not NEED cultural habits or traditions to work and last. Sure, True Emotion Mirrors “should” marry, they are the most authentic spousal couple or soup, but they are above the normal expectation of what marriage is about. They’re just a tad more magical than the average couple. (I must, probably, make an insert here, as one of my own True Emotion Mirrors is so used to being married to me in our previous lifetimes, that he naively believes all marriages are True Emotion Mirror marriages when it’s simply plainly not true. Most marriages exist between Trail Companions* of some subcategory. In my lifetime (at 44), I’ve seen 3 or 4 True Emotion Mirror weddings, and 6 existing TrEmoR marriages, in my own actual social circles, which is actually quite a lot, and countless of Trail Companion* weddings and marriages. The True Emotion Mirror ones are always striking in the feeling of belonging, how they feel “right”, real, and grounded.) Even so… NONE of these marriages hold a candle to the strongest of True Emotion Mirrors I know of, am, and work with… The reason being, that the older your soul, the more complicated things get, but also, the higher the rush and stronger the connection. USUALLY, the “insane” level TrEmoRs are the kind that requires A LOT OF soul searching, because their authentic way of existing doesn’t quite fit the monogamous heterosexual marriage and a white picket fence paradime, but people, even the TrEmoR’s themselves, are kind of hard-wired to try and push that particular fairytale.
True Emotion Mirror and Trail Companion* relationships work on a very different basis
Therefore, a True Emotion Mirror relationship AND a Trail Companion* relationship work in a very different way and are based on very different feelings. The Trail Companion* relationship is often motivated by the need to feel safe and secure and to form a base for children, while the True Emotion Mirror relationship is a direct need to be together with that person, the enthralled love of an individual, which then, as a natural course of things forms a secure base for marriage and children – as one possible outcome. Having said that, True Emotion Mirrors DO have a strong power of making even the most staunch childfree person/bachelor/batchelorette reconsider their position on marriage and children. It’s just that which comes first: The motivation to get married to a suitable person, or finding a near-magical connection to someone and then concluding that marriage and eventually children sound like a natural path to follow. One way of looking at it is that True Emotion Mirrors do not need to be told how to breed. They are a NATURAL love connection that follows a NATURAL, animalistic drive to be together. Trail Companions* are a logical relationship, something you do to reach a pre-set goal.
Trail Companions* mimic True Emotion Mirrors a lot, without truly knowing what the f they’re doing it for
Many Trail Companion* -couples also often try to dramatize their connection by mimicking real True Emotion Mirror love. They may also do it by artificially arguing, having artificially “heated sex” as if it was a goal in order to emulate the very real, strong feelings and emotions that come naturally between True Emotion Mirrors. MANY, MANY features in ordinary relationships are an attempt to force a normal relationship to look, behave, and feel like a True Emotion Mirror relationship when it simply isn’t one.
For instance… You don’t have to try and stay loyal to your True Emotion Mirror. It is difficult not to be. You don’t have to TRY to want to be with them for the rest of your life, that’s the most obvious want they’ve got. The only time you’d ever sleep with another person other than your True Emotion Mirror is to give THEM pleasure, or simply because you’re still in the running phase and are officially not a couple yet, and you might be married to someone else.
True Emotion Mirrors are “married in spirit” regardless of who they’re legally married to
True Emotion Mirrors are “married in spirit”2, as in they are committed to each other beyond the traditional idea of a relationship. True Emotion Mirror relationship goes so far beyond marriage and vows given to someone else, it’s like trying to tell the Sun to set in East instead, because we’d like it to. True Emotion Mirrors are a law of nature, not a law of tradition like regular marriages.
Therefore, being in a True Emotion Mirror relationship is akin to mental delusion, purposed to ensure reproduction against all logic and reason, while a Trail Companion* relationship is like a factory process designed for the same purpose without any of the required hormones involved. Therefore, True Emotion Mirrors tend to be a little smug and dismissive of “committed relationships” and the value of “a traditional marriage” for a good reason.
People who haven’t yet met an actual True Emotion Mirror. Which is most people who feel very confident and “mature” about committed relationships and marriage – they’re anything but. A normal marriage is child’s play in comparison… Quite literally as far as soul ages go. But I digress. ↩
ARE married in spirit, not WERE married in spirit. Just to say that it’s not like you can say “god married you”, and now you own that person. ARE married, as in, they both feel a bond to each other, regardless of who they’re legally married to. ↩
