I don't think your thread title is a clear as you think it is.

Manifested?

Cinders15 · 18/06/2022 15:59

You'll have to give us a clue!

Kione · 18/06/2022 16:00

No idea what that means

CushtyCushty · 18/06/2022 16:00

Typo for masturbated?

Pemba · 18/06/2022 16:01

Is this to do with clairvoyants or something? That was my first association - 'manifesting' a spirit.

Otherwise, not sure what you mean.

Staynow · 18/06/2022 16:02

What imagined them and then they appeared? If only life worked like that!

ofwarren · 18/06/2022 16:03

What does that even mean?

Moonface31 · 18/06/2022 16:04

Another one who doesn't have a clue what you mean

LaingsAcidTab · 18/06/2022 16:04

I know what you're on about. And if you do that, you tend to get what you need, and not what you want.

Redglitter · 18/06/2022 16:05

Glad I'm not the only one confused 😅

LaMarschallin · 18/06/2022 16:06

Is it a Spoonerism?

MrsTerryPratchett · 18/06/2022 16:06

Manifest is using your thoughts to create or make something happen in life. If I imagine really hard I have a boyfriend, I'll have one.

If you think about it, it's very creepy to think you should influence other people into doing what you want.

Yogipineapple123 · 18/06/2022 16:06

I once had a tantrum on my way to a night out about how annoyed I was to not have a boyfriend. And met my boyfriend that night. Is that what you mean? Lol

TheWayoftheLeaf · 18/06/2022 16:11

I don't get what you mean.

DP popped up when I was 18 and didn't want a relationship. Love made us both drunk and it's been almost 10 years since. He's my best mate. Not sure I could've manifested him... I always wanted tall dark and handsome and I found a skinny ginger man who turned out to be the funniest human I'd ever met.

Seaoftroubles · 18/06/2022 16:20

Search Cosmic Ordering for those who want to know what it means.

Herejustforthisone · 18/06/2022 16:21

I have to know wtf the OP meant.

darisdet · 18/06/2022 16:21

Place marking 🤔

User8696589 · 18/06/2022 16:22

OP I was into Law of Assumption and thought I manifested my ex partner back. Until I realised it’s confirmation bias on steroids and it’s more likely for us to get back together because we were together in the first place. It’s an extremely harmful concept.

If you mean you want to manifest a partner and write those qualities down and see it happen (those type of things), it’s just that your brain will look out for ideal men that have those things you wrote down.

Isn't 'manipulate' the same? I'm sure this is what OP really means.

Marineboy67 · 18/06/2022 16:24

Perhaps by 'manifest' she meant moulding a partner in to what she/he would like them to become.

girlmom21 · 18/06/2022 16:24

I'm glad other people have no clue either! Even those who seem to understand are making no sense to me.

This reply made this weird thread 100% worth opening! Thanks!!

I knwo someone who claimed to. She was very religious and prayed hard for her ideal man to com into her life. She knew exacvtly what he should look like, what line of work he should be in, everything. She was walking down a street when the man she;d seen in her visions came out of a shop. He was so exactly right that she walked up to him and said, "I think we are supposed to meet." He agreed. He had the job she'd wanted and shared the same faith.

I think her saying they were supposed to meet and him agreeing had a lot to do with her being a six foot blonde model. But they ended up married.
