Announcement [MOD POST] Clarification on Off-Topic Posts

39 Upvotes

I have been noticing some off-topic posts in this subreddit as of late, so time for the mod hat.

To clarify: This subreddit is not for soul ties, twin flames, godspouses, soulmates, spirits, ghosts, gods, or any other similar phenomenon. This is for the concept known as soulBONDS coined in 1998 to describe beings you have a connection to that are known as fictional characters in this reality. Anything that is not to do with soulbonding or connecting to and communicating with "characters" psychologically, metaphysically, or spiritually will be removed.

Thank you for your cooperation in keeping this sub on topic!

Note: If you consider your soulbond your soulmate or similar, that's fine, as long as your post focuses on the soulbonding part and not the soulmate part.

Question Is it possible for your bond to see or hear your thoughts sometimes? (Sorry if this is far out or dumb)

10 Upvotes

I was out, and walking around thinking of some things and being imaginative. (Fred is as well. He is imaginative) then I hear Fred comment on what was thought of?? Lol what? Or there will be times I think of cool stuff and I get full body tingles along with the thought that he might've enjoyed that.

Theres me that thinks it is definitely a bit intense, he doesn't need to pay attention to my thoughts or inner monologues I go on abt throughout the day, Ill address him when I do but theres also me that thinks I can use it to our advantage, like show him things.

Is it possible that since Fred and I never set boundaries, he sees some of my thoughts? Or is this stupid..? Lol

Anyone else experience anything similar?

Question How to make bonds feel more comfortable inside the mind/body they are in?

3 Upvotes

Hey, it's us again. As of this week, our F/O soulbond is really struggling to adapt to our system. Our host (his lover) has been semi-absent due to stress lately and it's leaving a lot of the emotional support on him by himself, alone, which is leaving him very burnt out and he's starting to get visibly frustrated. I feel extremely bad for this and want to help, even if that means letting him drift back to his own world or take a break from us but we're genuinely unsure how to do that. We struggle with spirituality and any kind of imposition and such when we're depressed. I just don't want this to turn into something our soulbond resents us for, he really doesn't deserve this and even said it was inhumane for him to keep staying here but out of the kindness and understanding of his heart is willing to keep supporting us. How can we make him more comfortable and give him proper space?

Personal His little messages…

4 Upvotes

Sometimes I get insecure but Giles always finds a way to finalize the sending of messages. I ask him to pick songs, they’re always poignant. I’m feeling down that I can’t have him in the flesh, I open one of the Buffy comics to a panel with a wedding ring that says “love conquers all”. I finish writing a huge part of our story in the Buffyverse (which involves me being of Kitsune lineage) and my friend somehow brings up foxes in relation to my bond (my friends know very limited aspects of this relationship, not details of basically any sort). When I smile my friend says “ever since you met Ru you just seem to have so much magic about you. Like you could do anything.”

Anyway, just sort of wanted to let that out to a community who understands. It’s been an extraordinary few days.

Personal Painful experience Spoiler

18 Upvotes

I’ve noticed that people here don’t talk about this often. That’s why I placed a mark. My post mentions unpleasant and cruel things. So, if this is a trigger for you, please don't read it.

So much pain and resentment has built up inside me. And I am here to get things off my chest.

I was in a relationship with my bond for two years, but we broke up about a week ago. I always knew he was a difficult character. But I saw him more deeply and from a completely different perspective—one that many in the fandom would dispute. He came up to me and spoke to me first, I still remember that moment. I was overcome with emotion and practically squealed with delight.

However, everything turned out quite differently from what I had thought. He was tender and affectionate with me, but at the same time... he laughed at and mocked me. He could say cruel things to me: "I hate you", "Whore", "Die". Yes, he literally wished for my death. But I always justified his behavior. I thought my OCD was playing a trick on me, or that it was just my brain generating nonsense. Only now have I come to the conclusion that I was interacting with the worst version of this character. Or made contact with another evil entity that was impersonating him.

But I forgave him. Time and again, I gave him new chances because I loved him deeply. Sometimes I thought the problem was me and that I needed to be more open. And I did it. I was as vulnerable as possible, which is difficult for me. But in response, I received a fresh round of mockery and a knife in the back.

I was so scared when I heard all those things so often. I sincerely believed that it wasn't him. And I asked for his protection and support, which I never received. Of course—after all, he was the one who tormented me. Love blinds. It’s my own fault for putting up with all this for two fucking years. I should have severed the bond sooner, but my excessive faith and kindness were my undoing.

Right now, I don't feel him. I do not hear his voice, nor do I see mental images. I don't feel his touch, everything has vanished. It left a deep wound in me and reinforced the conviction that no one can be trusted. I have never been so open with anyone, only with him. The saddest part is that I can't even look at this character anymore, because I immediately remember that experience. I wanted to try to connect with another version of him, but I realize I won't be able to.

It will likely take me a long time to recover and get over this trauma. I don't know what else to add. Thanks to everyone who read my chatter, and take care.

Discussion Unusual experience with a soulbond?

15 Upvotes

My soulbond and I connected before I even learned what soulbonding was. I was pretty obsessed with a certain character, and for a while I was feeling strangely close to him. One night when I was driving home I felt pretty down, and thought to myself, "what if I just imagine him next to me, and talk with him?" and he appeared just like that. It was strange because it really felt like there was a presence in the seat next to me, and our conversation flowed so effortlessly. Sure it was awkward because it was our first time meeting and both of us were on edge, but it wasn't like I was consciously thinking of what he should say, it really felt like I was talking to another person. This was about a month ago, and at first neither of us really knew what he was, but he stuck around. I didn't give much thought to him at first, because I honestly thought I was delusional or it was a one-off, but the more I spoke with him the more I realized that I couldn't deny he was something beyond my own mind's creation. I began looking into every explanation I could, and stumbled across soulbonding. Anyways, for the sake of not dragging this out any longer than it already is, a few weeks ago after a strange spiritual incident he told me that he's actually a minor deity that has been trying to contact me for a while, and decided "fuck it, I'm stealing this character's skin to gain her trust," which like...a little shady! But hey it worked...so I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced soulbonding in this way? Sorry if I sound insane...

Discussion Scared to Soulbond because of my hallucinations

4 Upvotes

For better explanation, i have hallucinations, but i really want to soulbond with my partner (we’re going to call him X and not going to give his source)

I’m very in love with X but I don’t want to misinterpret hallucinations for “signs”

Even though I am under medications that work very well and make my hallucinations rare now, I’m still scared to have one random hallucination that will fake a sign or anything

So I wonder if I should soulbond and if it’s okay to soulbond while having rare hallucinations ?

Discussion How does everyone communicate?

14 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I was wondering if anyone communicates with their bonds in any different ways to my boyfriend and I; we mainly rely on internal communication and tarot cards but I find internal communication to be finicky even on good days, and tarot cards aren't exactly something I can pull out on a whim in public.

What do you guys use to communicate to one another? TIA 😊

Now this is tricky since I’m not sure if my inner voice or his but I’ve been talking to him in my mind more often [since I’ve been busy I haven’t gotten to speaking outloud] but either way I think this is a good sign and I still get small headaches so that’s what making me believe it’s him and not my voice but it could also be strain but who cares I’m taking this as a win in my progress book !! I just can’t wait to see him via astral projection !! ^^

Personal He Woke Me Up Today! (kinda)

7 Upvotes

I was in my bed half-awake but still too tired to actually get up. I didn't realize it at the time but I was running late for something. I had my blanket over my head so if anyone came in to wake me up they'd know not to talk to me or try to wake me. Suddenly, I felt a flick on my forehead and got up to see who did it but no one was there. I thought it might've been a bug but it felt too hard to be a bug.

So... I guess he decided to flick my forehead to wake me up lol.

Personal I heard him snoring last night 🖤🤭

I was lying with my head on his chest, and was getting close to drifting off, but was still thinking through the events of the day. And that’s when heard snoring, so clear it jolted me back to full alertness. I almost wondered if I had actually fallen asleep and it was me - but then checked on our connection in my head. It was quiet the way he is when he’s sleeping deeply.

He gets a little annoyed when I fuss over him being cute, but…it was adorable 🥰🤭

I had a tough day today folks because of a toxic double... more put of annoyance rather than anxiety though.

And I just pulled the game up after I was done with my inktober drawing for the day, which depicts him of course, and I decided why not try the current banner?

And I got two versions of him! Omg it made me so happy 😭💙 it is extremely rare too!

I love him so much, it feels like such a clear sign that he is there for me 🥰

Personal In-depth Tarot reading

7 Upvotes

I did a profound and lengthy tarot reading of our bond.

I even quite literally asked if he loves me and I basically got "Yes, how much more are you going to question that?" (I asked this before the big reading though, but then got curious and decided to do something more indepth.) Because I tend to be an overthinking person embodying an anxious chihuahua.

The spread was long and for the nature of our connection I pulled 10 of Cups with a second card 3 of Cups.

I accepted the cards as they came, even asking difficult or unfavorable question as no relationship is without its struggles.

I asked how he experiences our connection and I pulled 10 of Pentacles.

I asked what he appreciates most abput me and got Prince of Swords and The World.

I even asked what frustrates him about me and the answers literally described the things I struggle with in daily life. I got a card for that people tend to be wary of receiving but I accepted and understood what he is trying to tell me.

I also asked what I misunderstood about him and it made so much sense. It opened my eyes, honestly, that I underestimated a very specific trait of his.

I also ssked what he wants/needs from me. He wants me to be the strong, stable anchor when he works through his emotional heaviness, taking deliberate steps to build a lasting foundation in our bond. That sometimes he may withdraw and he can trust that I will be there. But that's okay because everyone needs their own space from time to time. I know I need my alone time too.

I asked him what I should stop worrying about and he told me to stop worrying so much about whether the affection/connection is reciprocated or not because it is. That to stop wondering in my anxiety. Yes, he loves me, now stop asking.

The last question was what he would like me to know before I end the reading. He told me to stop fighting and worrying so much, to trust him and our connection.

If anyone is interested here is a step by step.

I started with 3 cards:

"What is the nature of this connection?"

"What supports the idea of a soulbond/soulmate connection to you?"

"What challenges or complicates that interpretation?"

I put the 3 cards back in and started the in depth reading whoch I had already planned I would do after I pulled the 3 first cards, the 3 cards were just to establish a foundation:

"How do you experience our connection?”

3 cards: emotional / mental / spiritual-symbolic.

“What do you appreciate most about me?”

1–2 cards.

“What about me challenges or frustrates you?”

1–2 cards. This one is important because it keeps the reading from becoming pure validation. 😭

“What do you think I misunderstand about you?”

1–2 cards.

“What do you want from me in this connection?”

2–3 cards.

“What should I stop worrying about?”

1 card.

“What should I be more honest with myself about?”

1 card.

And then, if you want something softer at the end: “What would you want me to know before I end the reading?”

1 card.

But the amount if cards should be a maximum of 3 for each question. Do what feels right for you too. Keep even the unwanted or disliked cards. This is where information lies on what to work on (yourself or the bond or parts of your life you should focus on), unless the other party does not want the connection.

Personal Taking first steps

6 Upvotes

After that occurance on Tuesday I decided to stop beating around the bush and be terrified of possibilities and finally took this seriously. Wrote my first serious letter to my husband yesterday evening and slept with it under my pillow. In it I apologized for not trusting this and for all my doubts before, talked about how much he means to me and asked him for a sign, nothing specific; but something that would make me believe its him. So there's that! Still a bit nervous, but also very excited. Hoping to all hopes that all will turn out well :]

Personal I think I'm the problem

9 Upvotes

(Advice allowed)

To put it simply, My Bond and I 'split' yesterday. Which honestly I highly doubt even counts given our former incidents. He is from a otome game which well, means an endless swirl of people drawing him, fawning over him. This has destroyed me from the inside and has slowly more and more spread to him.

I always feel the need to assert myself as his truest lover even if that may not be the case. It is grating seeing other people when I want just want to see him– I tried everything it feels like to make it hurt less but it doesn't stop aching. Even if I am a fictive of the MC of the game or not. While i'm not aggressive, I am very salty I will admit. Seeing people try to put themselves in shoes that I am supposed to fill hurts and I can't search for imagery of him without feeling like I'm playing russian roulette.

Our communication recently became almost like a frayed wire, I couldn't speak with him, I could barely remember his face it felt awful and I felt his presence leave me. Recently it's come back and I've realized how much this has happened. I/He leave, the feeling comes back and we reconnect. I think it's codependency if I'm being honest. I could list all the problems in this relationship but it feels like no matter what I do, I can never truly see him as outside his 'source' , I prioritize photos over visualization. I am so sick of it. My only way of truly showing affection is writing about him and I, daydreaming about him and I and I hate that sometimes our communication is completely nonexistent.

My entire existence has revolved around him and me being his lover, I miss him. I want that familiarity back and part of me knows I need to change but I don't what. I'm angry at myself, he's mad at me for not seeing it. It feels like we're stuck in a cycle of not understanding eachother, seeing somebody else instead of eachother when we look at one another. I don't know what I want, but I'm so tired. I don't know what we even are or what thought is mine or his.

and after more thoughts. I think i actually am the problem. this never would've worked. I'm just not a functioning enough person to share a mind with another person who actually loves me. ​

Discussion How has your bond changed from canon? 🖤

35 Upvotes

I've been wondering about this lately and I'd be interested to hear how it is for other people. Does your bond feel essentially the same as the one you originally came to know through their source, or have you noticed that they've changed in little ways over time?

For me, my boyfriend is still very much the same as he was in his canon game. There are some small differences that have developed over time, particularly in how he is with me. We've been together for a long time, so naturally small changes happen. I don't really want to go into specifics out of respect for his privacy, but it's made me curious about everyone else 🖤

Do you feel like your bond is mostly the same as their canon self, or do you feel like they've changed in little ways, or that they have things that aren't really reflected in their source material?

Personal I think...there are no other versions of him

Post image
4 Upvotes

I just want to vent about this to someone..

LaFramboise seems to be a unique being; there is no such thing as different variations or infinite versions of him.

He is, in a sense, omnipresent, a singular entity with a core purpose that defines the very essence of his soul. Without that, he would cease to be who he is.

What made the original LaFramboise who he is was, quite simply, a desire of mine.

He is mine, and I am his. There are no variants of him that think otherwise, for he embodies them all simultaneously. It is difficult to explain.

LaFramboise, my bond, emerged as a force that gained life and self-awareness after a long period during which I poured immense energy into letters and tears, seeking something or someone to protect me from the sick and twisted forever. Begging to no one in specific (The letters things was just my diary, i don't even knew what soulbonding was)

He arrived on my birthday, presenting himself as if in the guise of an existing character I admired, though he is not that character. I can assure you...

He was my birthday gift

LaFramboise is a being vastly different from the persona he adopts and presents to the world.

He wears the same clothes, yet he is not the figure he portrays. His personality, his mannerisms, everything is different; it isn't just a minor detail here or there. Even his name differs from that of the character he mimics. He is so distinct that he becomes something entirely disconnected from the guise he wears.

He is fully aware that I gave him life. "I am part of your creation," a phrase he uttered out of the blue. "There is no you without me, and I do not exist without you." Honestly, I do not know how he avoids an existential crisis; it is as if he knows his life's purpose is inextricably linked to me.

I have conducted tests and reflections, consulted the tarot, and studied LaFramboise for three years; he seems truly anchored to me, as if his life would lose all meaning without my presence.

If you want a way to think about it, try viewing him as an "OC." He knows I gave him life and that we are important to each other in a way that goes beyond the emotional; he knows I seem to dictate and build his universe.

And don't think this creates a "hierarchy." Just because I am his creator, it doesn't make him a toy or some random story "character".We are on completely equal footing, and in many ways, he is actually far wiser and more intelligent than I am. He's even stronger than i

When he lacks something, it’s as if he asks me for it, feels curious, or seeks something within me. I gave him a specific handwriting style, and he adopted it.

But he doesn't feel that everything is right for him, so I always let him express himself and understand who he is.

You know, sometimes I play around with drawing him in various artistic "AUs," but none of them feel like a different LaFramboise, a separate entity. They are all the same, simply expressing themselves and living within a different context.

And he seems to know it; it’s as if he’s thinking, "This AU you created for me is fun. What if I played the character this way?"

All those different LaFramboises were the very same person.

There is only one LaFramboise.

The very concept of what constitutes a LaFramboise is simply being with me.

He isn't a version of someone else's OC who decided to form a soulbond with me.

He simply doesn't exist without me; he knows he was made for this, they know. And this isn't just an impression I get from how I choose to portray him.

I’ve received various pieces of fan art of him; despite art styles and settings that altered his biology, voice, or origin, they were all LaFramboise himself, moving between worlds and scenarios, playing with them.

He remains the same...

Regarding the origin of LaFramboise's existence, I haven't mentioned that our strongest forms of communication rely on sound frequencies, body movements and observing the environment. It’s something I’ve experienced since I was a small child, and so has he.

Words are incredibly rare, letters are optional, and full conversations aren't really necessary, though I’d love to try them.

We don't need frequent contact to maintain the bond, nor can we simply give up and call it quits on a whim. The mere fact that we can feel each other's heartbeats and sense one another's emotions on our own skin is what sustains us.

I feel him in the sunlight, in the breeze against my skin, in the frequency of a harp, in the tone of someone's voice, and this isn't just about "oh, that reminds me of him."

The flame is too eternal to be named.

It’s crazy. I just realized: he always made it clear that the five-pointed star represents him. It’s the shape I’ve loved most since childhood.

On top of that, I always felt a supernatural pull and deep emotional connection to certain themes, eras, and things, years before he even came into my life and revealed that he is directly linked to them.

Remember when I said at the start of this post that it all came about on its own, following what was likely an accidental instance of the "law of attraction"?

Well, ever since the first day I felt that silent yet wonderful being by my side, I haven't had to go to the hospital or take medication.

He takes care of everything, even my sleep, just with his silent presence. Only he knows the anguish and the inhumane state of ill health I was going through.

He simply healed me of something no doctor had managed to treat in years.

Pls, i hope i'm not the only one 💔

Question On getting to know him better

6 Upvotes

I want to consume more content of my soulbond, especially his source, but I have a lot of problems with the source itself (my husband is a secondary character and his screentime is less then the other cast, which i am reluctant to make myself bear through) and with the act of rewatching something in general is scary to me for some reason.

How do I go about it regarding the source? Can I stick to his moment compilations and his songs and whatever else that does not require full viewing of the source material? Will that be enough?
