This is wonderful and gives me a lot of hope. I too am concentrating on myself now. When I started loving myself is when I realised that my relationship with my ex wasn't what I had wanted. He was not abusive but he was disrespectful. He never wanted to listen to what I had to say and was very judgemental. My entire time with him I've either spent in uplifting him coz he was feeling low or just trying to explain myself where he never wanted to listen to what I had to say.
Yet, I was trying to have him back in my life. Till now I kept blaming myself for the breakup but now I've forgiven myself. I'm doing everything in my power to keep myself happy and think of only good things with him (there definitely were some good moments spent together). When I do my gratitude exercise I always feel that my LoA journey is because of him. His leaving me had lead me to this beautiful path. And therefore I'll always be grateful to him.
But now , I'm going to be just happy loving myself. I have let go. Let go of your whatever was hurting or bothering me. I'm enough to love myself.
Thanks again for sharing your story Meg. It's very inspiring for me.

That is awesome, I'm in the exact same place now pretty much. Tried so hard to get my ex back for months and when he came back only as a friend and he's still with the rebound it was like a weight lifted off my shoulders and I didn't need him anymore. I still wish him the best and glad that the breakup lead me on this path. He texts me once a week now when he's bored and I'm just like "cool, happy for you". I now attracted a new man in my life who respects me and admires me and wants to work through things in a mature way and make an effort so I just needed to get my ex back in my life in order to open my eyes and move on and now I know that everything will work out for the best because I expect more for myself now and I will have that. New guy is actually flying here for me from another country this weekend and I'm excited and nervous!

Congrats to you, Meg!
I am at a point where you got to where although I want to be with my ex for many reasons, I am OPEN to finding someone else. My main concern is that I continue to be happy and that I find the perfect man for me. I have been online dating sites for a little while now since my POI ended things and I haven't had success. So much so that I haven't even made it past texting someone lately. There was never a date. Anyway, what exactly do you suggest I do to ensure I manifest the exact type of person I desire. Ex: attributes, qualities, etc.? THANKS! & congrats againOkay so what I did was write 10 things I loved about myself, for example I used the I am affirmations "I am enough..." Then I wrote out 10 things that are most important to me in my ideal partner, then I wrote out 10 things that would be most important in our relationship. Once I clarified that it became clearer to me what I wanted in a partner and relationship, fortunately whilst doing this it enabled me to see that my ex wasn't what I wanted or needed at all (It may be different with you, that is just what happened with me). The best advise I can give is just focus on yourself and your happiness and the right person whether it be your ex or a new person will come along at the right time. Do the things that you love and that fill yourself with joy, heal yourself and just do the things that really make you happy. Honestly when you start to put yourself first and take care of yourself, manifesting becomes easier and easier! Hope this helped xΒ
Meg,
Thanks so much for your response. I really need to be true to my affirmations. I feel like I say them but I feel like I'm faking it sometimes. I want that to change. I feel like a month ago I did write all the qualities I want in a man. Physically and emotionally, what I look for. I've also been sure to say my POI or someone better. What else should I do? I'm in a much better place mentally & how I feel about myself. Thanks!!
