Have you ever manifested your partner?

[Triplestacker23]

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

Yes I did. I had been online dating for 2 years with no joy so I wrote a list of attributes from looks, values, music taste, interests, humour and so on, some of it was really specific. One year later I met a man who had everything on the list - we are still together 7 years later. I didn't do anything with my list by the way, I just kept it folded up in my notebook.

I need a diagram.

Is it making them sit in Economy whilst you sit in Business Class or something?

It's more useful to think of it as really being clear in your own head and heart as to what you are looking for and focusing on those positive things.

Sort of as I often concentrate really hard and hope he’s loading the dishwasher/ folding some washing etc and he often does so I think I manifested that to happen 🤣🤣

Yes I really believe I did

Que?

Oh the irony....

I tried Cosmic Ordering. I wrote out a lovely letter to the universe and did some beautiful illustrations around it, described exactly what I was looking for in a partner and left it at that in a drawer. When I met my XP he fitted the description to a tee, except for one point - he wasn’t musical, but that was an optional point anyway!

He was absolutely everything I wanted in a man. Unfortunately he turned out to have a bit of a temper, wasn’t always as kind as I would have liked and we split up several times, so I’m not sure the universe has my best interests at heart if it thinks this is what I need. We are still in contact and I feel a very magnetic attraction to him, I feel like I was destined to meet him, but I haven’t been truly happy for a long time which doesn’t feel like a good plan for the universe to have made for me.

Confirmation bias - exactly @User8696589. Law of Attraction is a central pillar in the manipulation of people signed up to scams like MLM - it keeps them slogging away, believing if they just want something enough it will come their way. This very neatly invites them to ignore any concerns of others, ignore their own critical thinking, keep on “investing” and then when they’ve exhausted their bank accounts, it invites them to take the blame for “not wanting success enough” when in actual fact they’re victims of a scam where 99.6% of participants lose money. I loathe the whole thing; it’s bollocks but it’s actually really damaging to many people.

Like most, I've only opened the thread in the hope of finding out what you mean.

Can't believe you returned to the thread and haven't explained, despite the overwhelming majority of posters asking you to

@Triplestacker23 what are your experiences of manifestation?

Manifesting - www.oprahdaily.com/life/a30244004/how-to-manifest-anything/#:~:text=Let's%20back%20up.,than%20willpower%20and%20positive%20thinking

But basically you have to put the work in to get what you want. If you want a great new job, you study, work hard, network with the right people, volunteer your time in a related field, lean about the you want to work with - basically do everything you can to ensure your dream comes rate. It's not like imagining a bloke then sitting on your arse at home hoping he will appear!!

It's more useful to think of it as really being clear in your own head and heart as to what you are looking for and focusing on those positive things.

But that's not 'manifesting', is it? It's just having a plan, or clear preferences. Like going to the supermarket with a list, rather than just turning up and picking things off the shelf . There's nothing unusual about knowing what you want! But some people seem to believe they can actually will things to happen, which is clearly utterly bonkers.

I have a husband who came into being on his own accord but I’m very interested to know if I can cosmically order him to have less gas

@Boppertini - that's interesting!

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.

1. You may have met him anyway.
2. You were clearly at the right stage for a relationship.
3. He had the looks/character you wanted so you were naturally going to be drawn to him.
4. You remembered what you had asked for and you were drawn to him!! 'Oh, he's just like I asked for - it must be fate!' It's a self fulfilling prophecy.

Dream comes true, not dream comes rate 🙄

Sorry, op, this sounds like a load of American bollocks.

Tried it once, never again. 3 days it took to get rid of the ectoplasm on the walls.

I like your manifesto
Put it to the test-o.

Anyone could have me with that intro.

No, but I did grow mine in a jar on the windowsill.

@bloodyunicorns definitely likely to have been one of those options!

If this nonsense was real I imagine Chris Hemsworth would have had to embrace polygamy in a big way by now.

After a disastrous relationship I wrote a list of traits I wanted a future partner to possess. My next boyfriend pretty much had the lot so I very sensibly married him. It’s been over 40 years now. I don’t know if that counts as manifesting or just being more choosy.

So, how does this work? Can I manifest my DH to clean the kitchen, put the youngest to bed and fix me a drink with the power of thought alone? Will I have to put my fingers on my head like Dr Strange, because I think that could give the game away?
