You May Connect With A “Woundmate” Because Of Shared Past Trauma, But That Doesn’t Always Mean They’re Your Soulmate, And Staying With A Woundmate May Do More Harm Than Good

Woundmate relationships have high highs and low lows. They can be dysfunctional and overwhelming. But when you’re with a soulmate, life is supposed to feel easy and relaxed.

Soulmates want you to succeed and heal. They will accept your past and help you heal from it, not dwell on it. A relationship with a soulmate develops gradually as you learn more about each other.

You know you’ve found a soulmate when they give you the space, encouragement, and patience you need to move on and heal your wounds.

Does this mean you have to cut off your woundmate totally? Not necessarily. If you can maintain a low-maintenance friendship with them and enjoy their company without mentally and emotionally exhausting yourself, that’s great. When we rely on or put all our faith in our woundmates, we can get hurt.

So, from now on, pay close attention to your relationships. Don’t stop searching for a soulmate, but don’t be fooled into risking your personal peace for a woundmate.
