Being born into a wounded family can easily make one slip down the path of dysfunction. A person's growth is a reflection lies in the types of relationships one attracts in their life. An Empath Twin Flame takes up the reigns to fix and heal the narcissist twin flame believing into the fact that as long as they keep pouring into the relationship the narcissist twin will love them back and not
abandon them. Hence,the more the empath offers love and care,the more the narcissist grips onto them sinking the empath deeper into despair.
This classic case of destructive dynamic impacts the empath's self esteem as the empath becomes dependent on the narcissist's acceptance and love. The empath is left exhausted,when they attempt to leave the relationship as the narcissist twin flame attempts a barrage of manipulation and emotional blackmail techniques. Now,the empath plays the role of a "fixer". This is clearly due to the reason of sense of familiarity,predictability and safety that the empath feels which is contrarily an abusive relationship which feels normalized by the empath.
Diving deep into the empathy shared between the counterparts,unravels a dominant dynamic about the mental programming,how stark different they are; the chaser is the intellectual empath and the runner is the emotional empath. The Yang chaser is proactive,self confident and assertive,however in terms of letting go and emotional openness, the chaser is clueless.
Contrarily, the Yin runner is carefree,lives in letting go, highly intuitive,emotionally hypersensitive and artistic;whereas in terms of self expression and self confidence,they are clueless.
An empath's nature by default is always on a lookout for someone to live and provide compassion.
Hence,the empath twin flame must shield themselves from the unhealed counterpart as they walk wounded,struggling with abusive codependent partners and relationships.
Implementing a no-contact policy is the most sensible solution to compose one's sanity.
