I thought I'd write this because I had an experience with my person about 3 months ago that was basically a manifestation. All Summer I got little to no contact from him even though I texted and contacted every day out of desperation but I was either ignored or replied to very coldly and it seemed really hopeless. Then I heard he had left the country and didn't tell me and I was devastated but after crying for a day I had an inspiration to write him a brief but heartfelt email that wasn't desperate but in it I told him for the first time in a long time that I still loved him and I wanted to be with him. I sent it from another email account I have and I just expected that to be the last word forever between us. I let it go to the universe and I told my best friend that I would wait for his reply (which I was sure I would get sub consciously but not consciously) hard to explain. I felt relieved and because he was gone away I didn't bother texting him anymore and I actually started focusing on having my own fun and moving away from being sad, I just let it go. I looked at my email every now and then and saw nothing but it didn't even make me sad, I was just sort of accepting of it. One day I was in college and I went onto my college email to see if I got anything from my professor and the first thing that came up was an email from my person which was sent a full 6 days before I checked ! I couldn't believe it ! The email was also the most positive response I had gotten from him in 3 months, he seemed tearful and sad and regretful about me and he even signed the end with Love, which for him was a big thing! I think I got this response because (a) I sent the email from a frame of mind where I expected nothing back, I just sent it as a final word sort of and I was honest but not pleading or desperate and I was in a strange way, positive too and (b) I wasn't attached to the outcome and actually forgot about it and gave up on a response when I got one! Ok I slipped up and got carried away in the moment and tried to initiate more contact from him which didn't work out, but I got it because of those things and I just thought I'd share incase it works for anyone else

This makes me question my own situation.. should I sent a heartfelt email to her? or just keep waiting for her to initiate contact? I think this is the answer:
It's really about how you feel more than what you do. You really didn't need to even send that e-mail to him. He would have reached out regardless. Because you were finally feeling good and were outcome independent. I think that's ultimately what the lesson is here. :D Great story.

This! So much!
Part of the reason how I rekindled my romance with my guy was that I started writing him imaginary emails. I didn't send them to him, just kept them in my 'drafts' folder of my Gmail. It made me feel SO much better getting those feelings typed out, and I felt like a huge weight had been lifted (this was definitely a bit of "letting go"). I felt lighter, less stressed, and happier.

Yeah I think the reason why I decided to write the email was because my texts to him all Summer were all lies, saying I was totally fine being apart and I just wanted to meet up and talk and just be friends, nothing more, I was happy without him blah blah .....but the email spoke my truth and I think he felt that and when people speak heartfelt truths, it encourages a response. But if you've already been speaking the truth then you don't need to write anything more and then just get on a happy vibration I don't know if in this case he would have reached out because all my efforts of communications were sort of false and pretending and I think he didn't feel my authenticity.

Love this!!! I like the ideas of imaginary emails. I may start doing that myself. I know I have drove him crazy from desperation of sending too many emails. So I have been trying to lay off. It's hard though.
Thanks for the posts!!

And this too!!
I love the imaginary email idea. Just have to remember not to hit the send button.
I do write imaginary wedding vow letters and husband lists all the time. But the emails is a good way of letting your feelings go.

I'm not exactly really one to speak right now as I technically haven't got my person right here with me, except spiritually and in my heart where I feel him and our amazing love, but I have repeatedly attracted him back after horrendous break ups in the past, break ups where someone would tell you that you really should move on because there is no hope in hell of him coming back, where people who are friends with him have told me to give up, where the world basically all told me to give up but with my hope and that little bit of faith he's come back a lot and without any trickery or manipulation like they sometimes teach on the internet. He always came back just as I got myself back on track and I started smiling and going out with friends and enjoying myself because these people did fall in love with you and real love remains so if you become the person they fell in love with, they can't resist I think.

Oh I've started looking up wedding dresses just for fun and picking out the best song for our first dance that we both would like, just for fun haha ^^ and I'm choosing the best idea for a honeymoon and also sort of deciding what kind of wedding would suit us too. I've actually gone so far as to sort of imagine a child but it's not like a very focused thing, more like a flash thought of a child that would look like both of us, again just for fun! Abraham talked about when you're manifesting something, just go general and don't focus too much that it hurts or you start to panic, just go light and easy and stay in a fun mentality. I hope I don't sound too creepy haha but I think people here understand what I'm talking about

I love weddings, the dresses and all the fancy things that are included in that department. Pinterest is a go to place for me to find and save ideas that I love. It can be a bit addictive however.
There was this story I read where a guy planned out his fiancés wedding by stalking her pinterest boards and surprised her with her dream wedding. I guess the sentiments behind it is great but that would maybe steal my joy of being a bridezilla :D
But you are right, go general and have fun with it.
