I'll continue doing the technique or finding one that works for me. What continues to trip me up is after this much time, I can no longer hold the image of him in my mind. He's basically a faded outline to me now but the feelings are still very real and there. I'm not sure if this hinders the process in any way or if it's a sign to just cut my losses and let go for good.

I believe its still ok if you cannot see his face/image accurately, i remember reading that a name is the energy signature so as long as you call his name and he responds the technique will work.

Lanie talks about giving couples more power when you put positive thoughts towards their relationships. Dont focus on that, just keep your thoughts on your goal.
I personally would increase the technique (preferably through the meditation, but on your own is also great) to 2 to 3 times a day. I personally find that it helps me with my feelings of lack of having my partner and it helps me to feel more peaceful and not overthink stuff.
I know this must be super frustrating because so much time has passed, but you should look at Lanie's story about how she manifested her ex back, it did take a year.

I'm not even sure if I'm doing the technique correctly. I can't seem to get him to turn around and when I do, I can't hold onto the image of him clearly enough to continue with PW. I don't know if anyone else has that problem. The strange thing is I don't feel the lack of him or the relationship. I'm genuinely and wholeheartedly okay. It would be great if we could have another shot because I truly believe we belong together and deserve a new beginning. I've always believed feelings have be shared. If one person holds onto the faith that you're meant to be together while the other doesn't think so, how does that work?

It's the over-analytical side of me that is too logical for its own good. I understand why it's so much easier to attract someone new than to rewrite a story that's already been told. I've been led to Lanie's story more than once as confirmation that time doesn't matter but everyone's situation is different. The successful journeys do give me a hope though.

Not sure how this is going to be taken but any advice would be appreciated.

Like others, I’m also in the process of manifesting the return of a past love. So far, there has been no indication of the techniques or anything working. I haven’t allowed it to defeat or stop me from moving on and meeting someone new. I was with someone for a while and only recently broke things off because I realised I still had feelings for my ex. I started to use PW again in hopes that we could possibly open the lines of communication. It’s been over a year and my last attempt at reaching out went unanswered. I wasn’t fazed or bothered in any way. We had a bad break up so I figured he either moved on, doesn’t want to rehash the past, or is still salty over how things ended. I had completely forgot I sent him an e-mail until I was clearing out my trash folder.

A mutual friend messaged me a few days ago wanting to catch up. I haven’t heard from him in ages. The topic of my ex came about and our mutual friend asked if I was seeing anyone. After a while, he mentioned in passing who my ex is currently with. Immediately, I wondered if LOA had brought them together. He met her in University when they were in London. He was in a long-term relationship at the time. Two years later, they meet again in New York and he assumed she had a boyfriend so he didn’t want to intervene. Fast forward to a few months ago, he went to her hometown for her birthday. Now, they’re very much together. Unconditional love would say to leave it and wish him and their relationship well. Move on and let go.

In a situation like this, though, how do you continue to hold unwavering faith that you’re meant to be with someone when it seems like their want and free will has led them to their ideal person? Knowing what I do about her (prior to us dating), it’s hard to overcome such an evident obstacle. Obviously the logical response would be to not pay attention to her or their relationship. It’s my story, outcome, and desire. I shouldn’t repeat or talk about what I don’t want but beyond that, is there a way to shift the direction into a more positive light?

A part of me believes that if there’s a lingering feeling and it’s not due to ego based reasons, I owe it to myself to see things through. Right now, it’s not looking very promising. I just want to say again that I haven’t stopped my life from progressing. If anything, regaining my sense of self has made me return to the person I was before the relationship except much stronger. Good ol’ LOA at work.

How do you continue to hold unwavering faith when it looks as though the odds are against you especially after such an extended period of time? Most of the success stories I read are from people who have only been out of contact for a few weeks or months. Not many have reunited after over a year plus. Any thoughts or advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
