It is my understanding from research and personal experience that one can have many Soul Mates but only one Twin Soul (or sometimes called Twin Flame).
The difference is a Soul Mate is a soul that has agreed to incarnate with you and help you learn a life lesson such as being unconditionally loving, being more forgiving etc.
A Twin Soul often confused for Soul Mate is a soul that has the exact same frequency as you. Why that is is beyond the scope of this resply.
You only encounter your Twin Soul after significant spiritual growth, as a relationship with this person is VERY, VERY intense and not to be taken lightly.
Soul Mates help you grow and learn, whereas a Twin Soul relationship is orchestrated by God to bring more Light to Earth. A Twin Soul relationship has a bigger purpose.
You are usually physically attracted to a Soul Mate but not your Twin Soul (initially). This is in your best interest.
If you desire a love relationship (or anything else for that matter) it is best to work on your spiritual growth or consciousness. Meditate, work on becoming more loving and sharing.
A book that I would recommend for explaining why you don't get what you want (Law of Paradoxical Intent) is "Secrets of Attraction -The Universal Laws of Love, Sex and Romance" by Sandra Anne Taylor.
As long as you are focusing on being a channel for Light the perfect relationship for you at that given time will manifest in your experience. Be at peace if that person is a Soul Mate and not your Twin Soul. Everything happens in your absolute best interest. I promise.
