just That really. Interested to know other people’s experiences.

I assumed it was something to do with cargo ships...

Shehasadiamondinthesky · 18/06/2022 16:35

Not really no. If my ex was the best I could do I'd be properly ashamed and never manifest anything again.

darisdet · 18/06/2022 16:35

I thought there might be a cauldron involved. I thought it was one of those threads.

All will be revealed when the OP returns I'm sure.

Manifested = something has come to fruition.

either you’re conscious about what you want and take care to say yes/no to exactly what you want in your life and end up with the partner you really want.

or you’re not conscious about what you want, pay too much attention to what other people want, and end up getting what you didn’t truly want. Or you get what you need as a PP put it, to teach you what you really value in life.

either way you’re manifesting. Everyone is manifesting all the time… we think, feel, create… E.g. you think what you want for breakfast, and make it happen.

So everyone who has a partner has manifested them. Whether they’ve manifested the type of partner they really want is a different question.

Eh?

rumred · 18/06/2022 16:47

I didn't manifest my partner but i did work on /silence the voice in my head that said 'you're shit at relationships, youre unattractive etc'
Which meant i was far more likely to feel confident and meet someone. And i did.

Triplestacker23 · 18/06/2022 16:51

Thank you. I find this really interesting. @LaingsAcidTab im not sure I really understand what you mean. Is it a good thing if you get what you need rather than what you want?

Shipped them overseas?

AmbushedByCake1 · 18/06/2022 16:52

If this worked then I'd be married to Keanu Reeves. Couldn't have manifested much harder Grin

Have you really come back and still not explained what you're actually asking?

If this worked, I think a lot of us would be married to Keane Reeves to be fair

onmywaytooblivion · 18/06/2022 16:55

No, but I just manifested a bbq, been thinking about finding the perfect one on market place and it just arrived!
Thought manifesting was a load of bull, but I found it feeling like anything is possible right now 😀

NannyWeatherWitch · 18/06/2022 16:57

Sorry @Triplestacker23 I really thought you’d clear this up when you returned. Sadly I’m even more confused!

I don’t think manifested means what you think it means. 😋

gamerchick · 18/06/2022 16:57

Are you going to explain OP. I've got a sock pentagram and a blood offering here

If you can explain how do to do this OP please share, cos DH is really ticking me off today and I could do with manifesting him into a better one.

PurpleButterflyWings · 18/06/2022 17:00

WTF are you on about @Triplestacker23 ? Confused

layladomino · 18/06/2022 17:00

I just googled it.

If by manifest you mean imagine what you think your ideal partner will look like and be like, and they will mystically appear then no. That isn't possible.

If you mean spend time thinking about what you want a partner to be like, and then look for opportunities to meet that person, and be open to opportunities, and on the lookout, then I don't think that's 'manifesting', it's searching for something you (think you) want. The flaw in this is that, as a pp has pointed out, so many people end up very happy with someone they wouldn't have been on the lookout for.

For many years I had a 'type'. My brilliant DH wouldn't have passed the initial filter if I was looking for something specific.

I think that if you think you would like to be coupled up, then being open to meeting new people of all sorts (not just of a certain 'type') is much more likely to be successful.

DrNo007 · 18/06/2022 17:04

Not a partner exactly but I did manifest a short fling with a certain man once who I took a fancy to. I wrote on a piece of paper that I wanted him to visit me, fall for me and invite me to his place for Xmas. I put the paper under an icon of the Virgin Mary (I am not Catholic or even especially Christian but like icons) and ‘asked’ each day for my wishes to manifest. It worked like clockwork and all happened as I wanted but it turned out he was still in an on-off relationship with another woman and wasn’t really suited to either of us. So it fizzled out pretty quick but it was quite fun while it lasted and I had a good time on the Xmas visit.

Boppertini · 18/06/2022 17:04

Okay I’m almost embarrassed to post this but I do feel like there’s something to it so I’ll share my experience. Maybe it is just what prev posters have suggested though - if you write a long list of what qualities you want your future partner to have so you end up keeping your eyes out in a different way?
Anyway 10+ years ago I wrote a very specific list of what I wanted my future partner to be like (looks, education, politics, culture, location, interests, values etc). Met him approx 5-6 months later and we’re now married. He matches every quality on that list.

Charlize43 · 18/06/2022 17:10

I'm feeling so old these days. What with 'staging' rooms and 'curating' your underwear, I have no idea what 'manifesting your partner' means!

Is it something nasty and sexual?

Arenanewbie · 18/06/2022 17:10

Do you mean look, character,

Arenanewbie · 18/06/2022 17:12

Sorry, pressed somewhere wrongly on mobile.
I’ve meant:
Do you mean look, character or occupation?
