For those of you who believe in cosmic ordering - would you say this one was delivered?? (light hearted!)

So after reading the online dating thread I decided to make myself a cosmic order. My order was for my boyfriend to tell me he loved me (for the first time) whilst we were away last night.

Well, we're messing around, I do something stupid and he says "I love you even more now!" - I was pretty freaked out!! ok I know he didn't actually say "I love you" in the sense that I had 'ordered' but even so, freaky co-incidence eh??

Anyone else had a cosmic order come true?

What's a cosmic order? Is it wishing for something?

OneOfMyTurnsComingOn · 18/08/2012 13:27

Never heard of it Confused

I don't really know to be honest! I just read about it briefly on here and apparently you just ask "the universe" for something you want and then wait for it to be delivered. It's all a bit silly but I thought it couldn't do any harm to try Grin

I cosmically ordered my DH. It's true, I wrote a list and everything! Grin

He ticked every box!

NikkiNicks · 18/08/2012 13:59

Really Trance? so you reckon it's real then or just a sequence of coincidences?

I'm hoping it's real as I've ordered a marriage proposal Grin

It was a bit surreal last night though, he's NEVER mentioned the word 'love' before and then I do that order and he says that!

Cosmic ordering is just a woo woo way of enforcing positive thinking. And positive thinking works so, on that basis, so does cosmic ordering. Kinda.

Have ordered Johnny Depp to show up at my front door carrying a briefcase full of used twenties. I'll let you know when if this happens Wink.

Hmm I'm still waiting for my Scandinavian fuck buddy to be delivered by the cosmos. Does that mean I've not been positive enough? Or have I got to go to Stockholm to collect him?

izzyizin · 18/08/2012 16:50

For it to have been delivered by the cosmos it has to be in the exact same form as it was ordered.

Therefore, he should have said 'I love you' in order for the cosmos to sign off on delivery.

The fact that your order has not been delivered in strict accordance with your wishes makes me wonder who you're going to get a marriage proposal from Grin

CrikeyOHare · 18/08/2012 16:51

What I meant, Izzy is that CO is like horoscopes - they become self-fulfilling.

"I want a Scandinavian man, Cosmos. Oh, is that man over there in the corner of the pub speaking with a Swedish accent. Think I'll edge a bit closer & catch his eye. Oh wow - I've got me a Scandinavian man. Thank you, Cosmos".

Not actually that difficult to figure out, I wouldn't have thought.

izzyizin · 18/08/2012 17:15

I won't consider cosmic delivery complete if it's just any old Scandi I might happen to overhear speaking norse in a pub or other venue, Crikey, unless he meets certain specifications in height, weight, colour of hair/eyes, interests, profession, income, etc.

Maybe I should have been more specific as to which Scandinavian country he should originate from. 'Scandi' is a tad vague and I seem to recall I added a proviso that he could be Dutch or Estonian... or was it Lithuanian? Confused

SummerRain · 18/08/2012 17:18

Excuse me, Holland is not a Scandinavian country, nor is Estonia

Scandinavia is Norway, Sweden, Finland and Denmark.

CrikeyOHare · 18/08/2012 17:26

"Any old Scandi..." Grin

And yes, Holland is not Scandinavia. I do have a big thing about Dutch men, though. Dunno why.

izzyizin · 18/08/2012 18:40

I have a thing about big Dutch men too, Crikey Originally I was going to order a Netherlander but then it occurred to me to widen the net to include Scandinavia.

I then cast the net wider to include a couple of Baltic states in the belief that this would provide the cosmos with greater opportunity to deliver an appropriate candidate who is required to resemble a Norse god or at least have long blond hair, blue eyes, and look good in a Viking helmet.

Btw, there's nowt wrong with my geography but lust greed got the better of me Grin

I am resolved to re-order and confine my requirements to Holland, and preferably, an Amsterdamer.
