Can anyone tell me what is double spend and can we use it to send money twice Grin
A successful double spends means that both of your transaction will be confirmed. This would not happen with Bitcoin due to the way it is designed, blocks ensure that no transaction with same inputs can be included twice. However, it is possible when accepting unconfirmed transaction,  when there is a fork and an attacker having 51% of the hashrate (They generate blocks faster than others, hence being able to change the blockchain after the last checkpoint). Generally, the more confirmation it has, the harder it is to reverse it.

if i understand question, sometimes you can import private key of transaction in limbo into new wallet and if first transaction never confirmed then coins maybe still connected to old private key

From what we discussed here[1] OP was affected by the recent malleability attack[2]. It caused the hash of the transaction to change and the recipients wallet to get confused.
