Hi, I’ve been lurking for a couple weeks now and finished my first reading of POSM at this sub’s suggestion last weekend and The Feeling is the Secret not long after. The concept is completely underst…
More pseudoscience from you (the first being that gravity is attractive- gravity is a warp in the space time continuum as it responds to mass, and only appears to be attractive to the uneducated). No…

I had a quick glance at this on my break and will chip in more later, just by point 1 alone I see you haven’t grasped it, feeling is the secret indeed. But the feeling isn’t emotions. 2 That knowing…
You really can't put a time frame on it. There are tons of stories of people who've manifested their ex back in a year or more. I'll say this.. If you lack faith it's going to take either longer or …
This is a very silly reply. Any idiot knows that faith is essential (and unwavering faith is not, just 51% sunconscious faith vs 49% subsconsious unbelief) to LOB success. That is not the point of t…
I've been in therapy for over a year for various reasons, and for me the first thing I needed to work on was my self image. Understanding and accepting myself, building confidence and a stronger sense…

Umm.. I think your % is off and there are way more lurkers here and some real people out there. I thought about doing posts, a podcast, or a book as an entrepreneur about how hard it was for years ru…
heard a good quote once "the one you feed is the one who eats." perfectly normal to have these thoughts, but it's your decision to continue to ruminate on them, and continuing to do so will only f…
This is probably my own AP side coming through and influencing things, but, I'd always sort of viewed the avoidants desire for space in a similar way that Marxists percieve a proletarian false-conscio…
I understand why you'd ask. In my case, I wasn't abandoning my boundaries as much as strategically relaxing them for the purpose of understanding the situation and her. I recognized early on that her …
Ah seeing this after the parent comment and thank you that someone else pointed out the fallacy. When my ex brought it up I said what I truly want which is to have atleast 1 kid and yes to marriage. …

This is what it came down to with my ex, I know he is not an evil manipulative villain. He is just an emotionally stunted man who can’t identify or handle his emotions. And unfortunately his emotional…
Well she was doing it in secret, but the guy she started dating - months before we broke up, talked to one of his female friends, who talked to one of my female friends, who is a gossip, who talked to…
As a meeting secretary myself, I see nothing here outside the spirit of what I do as a meeting secretary. At times I have to interrupt somebody who is cross talking or acting outside meeting guideline…
This is super AA! When they start distancing, it triggers your fear of abandonment so much that you preemptively disengage from a stress fawn/freeze response. I'm also AA and also leading in a relat…
Well, i can share, why not? It's not a big secret. My both parents really love me, but they both were extremely unstable during me growing up. With my mom it would go from obsessive love to silent tre…
This is an interesting question, and if I understood you correctly you are asking if my subconcious belief/faith has risen? Well I have to preface this reply with one nuance. I discovered manifestin…

These are my personal experiences from FAs: bad texter, late replies, hard time describing themselves and their emotions, past history of relationships (or none), problems with parents, retreat in soc…
You’re right. First, I want to say the mods here can be toxic, rude, arrogant, and biased. Anyway, back to your question. Most people who believe in the LOA only learned it from The Secret or some mod…
I’m a year late but let’s be real, this is facts. The people bashing manifestation or New Thought teachings are just mad it didn’t work for them. They got half-baked info off TikTok or Abraham Hicks, …
What I'm going to say is not going to sound intuitive at all and is going to be scary, but it's honestly one of the practices and shifts I made that has led me to being secure. It took a lot of therap…
I haven't broken no contact, but I've seen an ex about year later and she pretended not to see me, it stung so much that I felt like I was back at square zero. I was so shocked by it because we didnt…
I do do the cognitive restructuring, like reminding myself of all the things my partner has done to show care. It helps in the moment but like I said, once we break up I wonder if I should've listened…
The thing of telling him not to come over and bring you food while secretly hoping he would insist on it is not healthy behaviour. I don’t mean to be harsh but nobody can read your mind and if you can…
Thank you for sharing this. Reading your post felt like someone handed me the secret playbook to my own current nightmare. I am on the other side of this dynamic—the anxious partner desperately in lov…
I'd trust my partner to tell me what they need. It doesn't need to be some long conversation. "I need to go to hospital", I'd take them to hospital. Otherwise I'd just be there for comfort. And I don'…
Well. To be perfectly honest - you can't make someone want to change. They have to want to change themselves. For my ex - when she saw the output of the relationship attachment report - specifically …

I'm a DA as well, and I'm afraid that that's generally not going to work. The secret is that we don't need quite as much space as we think we need. Giving us days or weeks after conflict or for some …
Oh man I have felt this exact same way. The thing that helped me the most in the early dating stages was to be clear about my wants/boundaries and consciously keep myself out of the loop of imagining …
Thank you for responding to me. Making this post was incredibly embarrassing for me because this entire situation feels absurd and the fact that it’s making me spiral so much has been really confusing…
Even though I'm FA, as a person whose almost exclusively avoidant in friendships, I don't think this is true at all. My secure friendships all followed a pretty distinct trajectory of periods where I …
