to feel a deep connection or affinity · to feel understood by
This expression is perfect for those moments when you meet someone new and instantly feel a deep understanding or connection, or when you encounter art, a story, or an idea that perfectly mirrors your own experiences or values. It’s about feeling a profound sense of familiarity or shared spirit with someone or something. ✨
When would you most appropriately use 'to feel a kinship with someone/something'? A. 🍔 When you find a new fast-food restaurant that you enjoy. B. 📝 When you finish writing a difficult report at work. C. 🫂 When you meet someone for the first time and instantly feel like you've known them for years because of shared experiences.
💡 **Pro-Tip!** This phrase implies a deeper, more emotional, and often innate understanding or connection than simply 'liking' something. It's like you've known them forever or share a fundamental bond. Use it when you feel understood without needing to explain much! It really goes beyond surface-level connection. 😊
