He called on October 10, after saying we’d never talk again

The story

Today, my manifestations came true in the exact way I imagined, and I'm SO excited to share. Fair warning: this post will be LONG because I wanted to give a detailed background + the techniques I used. Hoping this will be helpful to anyone currently struggling.

Here's the context:

My SP is someone I was dating for two months, but we were never officially in a relationship.

Things started under VERY casual circumstances, and I was completely okay with that. He told me from the beginning that he wasn't really a relationship person because of how he tends to act when he gets too invested in someone. His last relationship was around 3-4 years ago, and since then, he'd mostly been in short-term situations where he never developed an emotional connection. He was very avoidant the way he moved in his ex situations (the casual ones especially) so I genuinely had no expectation at all. Also: he was also moving across the country for work in two months.

Long story short: things did not stay casual LOLL quick act shocked. We honestly didn't seem like we had much in common apart from crazy sexual chemistry but things got emotionally intimate and it just kept growing. We were so different yet so similar in a way that made us addicted to talking to each other and learning new things from each other. It was beautifully different from any of my past relationships... it grew organically which made it so much more genuine.

Then he started opening up to me about things that surprised me AND him. He admitted that he was subconsciously doing things he'd never even done in his past relationships because he felt this draw toward me. At some point, things started shifting from casual into something neither of us had planned for. I think we both knew it was happening, but neither of us really wanted to address it because everything had developed so naturally.

Right before he moved, we had a date that was a HUGE turning point. We spent the entire day and night together, and looking back, we both recognized that as the point where we realized we'd fallen in love with each other. Neither of us actually said it at the time, but it was very much an unspoken understanding.

He moved about a week later, and things were normal between us at first. Then, BOOM. On some random night when everything seemed completely fine, he ended things. Weirdly enough, I'd had this underlying feeling in the days leading up to it that something was coming.

He explained that he was scared of becoming more attached with the distance and worried that his past tendencies would eventually resurface and cause him to hurt me. He was also scared of us falling into unhealthy patterns and felt pressure around putting a label on something when he wasn't sure how to navigate it.

One thing that really stuck with me was what he said about permanence. He's moved around his entire life, and he told me that a lot of the connections he'd made eventually fizzled out whenever he relocated. Because of that, he struggles with the idea of something actually lasting.

And I want to make something clear here: I wasn't ready for a relationship either! I loved our connection and wanted it to grow naturally without all the expectations and pressure. Honestly, this connection was helping me heal my anxious patterns and become so much more secure. I knew he had things to work through, and I didn't want either of us to rush into something before we were ready.

The difficult part was that he never made it seem like he'd simply lost feelings or decided he didn't want me. He kept telling me how much he loved about me and how much he cared about not hurting me. I understood that there was more going on beneath the surface, but obviously I couldn't work through those fears for him.

KEEP IN MIND: During our last conversation, he kept insisting that he never goes back after ending things. EVER. He repeatedly told me we'd never talk or see each other again. It felt completely final, and I genuinely believed that was the end of our story. REMEMBER that he is always avoidant in breakups and he would immediately emotionally detach after like turning off a switch in his mind. He told me plenty of times he has never called again after a breakup. My circumstances were not great is what I'm saying.

Three weeks later, I decided to write him an email with all the thoughts I'd been wanting to express. I literally wrote it the way I'd talk to him IRL, without trying to convince him to come back or win him over. I just wanted to get everything off my chest instead of being left with that feeling of I wish I'd said that. I didn't expect a response.

A week passed. Nothing.

We'd now gone a month without speaking, and I had NOTHING to work with. I don't stalk his socials, so I had no idea what he was doing or thinking. I didn't even know if he'd read my email.

THEN ON OCTOBER 10 HE RANDOMLY CALLS ME?????

I was driving my best friend when it happened and we both were like wtf. When I picked up he immediately started with one of our usual inside jokes, and we immediately fell back into our normal banter. It felt like no time had passed. Not a single moment of it was awkward it was so natural.

After I parked he wanted to talk to me privately since my friend was around. He said it'd only be 10 minutes. It was not 10 minutes..We ended up talking for an HOUR. The only reason the conversation ended was because I kept reminding him that my friend had been waiting for me this whole time. 😭 Every time I'd ask him to wrap it up he'd literally find other ways to prolong it.

So he told me he'd reread my letter multiple times, thought it was beautiful and vulnerable, and had even shown it to his best friend. He said he'd missed me a lot and had been thinking about me throughout the entire time we weren't speaking. Apparently, random things in the city kept reminding him of me. He originally wasn't going to respond, but in the week leading up to the call, he couldn't stop thinking about my letter. He said he hadn't even planned on calling me that day. Something came over him, and he caved.

AND THEN HE RANDOMLY TELLS ME HE'S MOVING BACK TO MY AREA PERMANENTLY IN DECEMBER???? 😭

His job gave him the option to stay in (city he's in) for three months, six months, or a year. He'd previously insinuated that he was leaning toward the longer option, so I had no idea he'd decided to come back permanently. And the day he's returning is literally the day after I graduate college.

He also randomly asked when I was going to visit him in (city he's in) and said that if I came before he left, he'd want me to stay with him. GIRL???? The last time we spoke, he was telling me we'd never see each other again, and now he's asking me when I'm visiting him and offering to let me stay with him. Y'all see this 180 too?

The entire conversation felt so natural. We were joking around, bringing up old memories, and talking like we always used to. He kept telling me how much he'd been thinking about me, and I genuinely could've stayed on the phone with him for even longer.

Toward the end, I brought up the fact that he hadn't said we were never talking again. He told me he didn't know whether we'd talk again, and I asked him if he was intentionally being ambiguous. He literally asked me if I thought he was ambiguous. 😭 I then asked if he'd answer if I randomly called him, and he said yes because he knows that when I call, I always make it worth it. So we ended the conversation without defining what we'd become, but the door was no longer closed the way it had been before.

So this is where things actually get kinda crazy

Apart from just learning more about manifestation, I actually did our birth charts and looked at them in the context of the Venus retrograde. I was honestly pretty skeptical about this stuff before, but I also did Tarot cards for the first time and my reading was so hyper specific to what was happening. Both the Venus retrograde prediction and tarot reading pointed to October 10 as a significant date for him.

HE CALLED ME ON OCTOBER 10. & he said that he actually wasn't even planning on replying to the email but just... got the urge and caved on that day? He said he thought about it nonstop since he read it and then he gave in. Based on the tarot timeline and the Venus retrograde timeline... the conversation exactly matched. I literally didn't go into the day with confidence that the prediction would be right... I deadass was going about my day and then it came as a genuine shock.

I also have a spellcaster I've purchased from three times before, and the previous spells had worked out in ways that felt aligned with my intentions, including one involving an SP last year. This time, I purchased a Rekindle Love & Renewed Connection Ritual.

I specifically told my spellcaster what the intention was. I told her it wasn't me trying to just get him to contact me; I said I wanted it to be something that came naturally. I wanted it to be something that came from his heart, for the distance between us to dissolve, for the love and attraction we shared to resurface, and for us to have the opportunity to build something healthier and more secure. I emphasized a mutual connection with comfortable vulnerability, healing, and the possibility of a committed relationship when we'd feel ready. This is basically everything I asked for her to keep in mind. I told her I didn't want the outcome to be forced or to have to micromanage how it was gonna happen!

That's why the ending of the conversation literally aligns with what my intention was.

Remember: I wasn't trying to manifest an immediate 0-100 reunion because we both are 1. not ready YET and also 2. we are both in major transitional times in our lives. I have a lot of stressors for the next two months specifically (aligns with when he comes back btw) so I just am not in the best place for the major commitment yet. I didn't see the finality after he broke up with me, and wanted his heart to reopen to the idea that we were able to grow something beautiful. As you can see, he came back in that healthier and more communicative way. I now know that my feelings were reciprocated, that he missed me the same way I missed him, and that he clearly sees me in his future. We're both figuring things out, and I genuinely think it's healthier to let a connection grow without immediately putting pressure on it to become something.

Remember how he told me he'd moved around his entire life and struggled with the idea of permanence? Now he's voluntarily telling me he's moving back permanently. He went from insisting we'd never speak again to calling me out of nowhere, telling me he'd missed me, opening up about his feelings, and leaving the possibility of future communication open.

I know the ambiguity of the outcome might not come off as a success technically to some but I wanna remind this: you don't exist in the ambiguity yet. Now that I achieved this, I am going to change my intentions for my DR. That is literally the point. The 3D is not the entire story! The 3D literally is just the current chapter you're reading. The thing is, the book is written by YOU. In the context of the DR, you have the power to not only write it, but revise and rewrite when you want. In my situation, having the door reopen without either of us feeling pressured to figure everything out immediately feels like exactly the kind of starting point I wanted. Key word: STARTING POINT!

ANOTHER THING: I literally visualized this happening the way it did. 😭 My visualization was that I'd be with the specific friend I was with, driving in my car, and his notification would pop up on my CarPlay. THAT IS LITERALLY WHAT HAPPENED. It was the same friend...

My Methods:

Okay, so I don't have some super rigid manifestation routine, and I actually don't spend that much time on techniques every day. I've personally found that keeping things simple works best for me.

The two methods I use are the O method and subliminals.

The O method has always been my favorite because I literally never fail when I use it. You just gotta persist the same way you would anything else. I was actually planning on making a separate post about it because I've looked into how it connects to magical traditions & the neuroscience side of why it can be so effective so lmk if you'd wanna see that from me!

For subliminals, I don't even listen to them every day. When I do, I just let my playlist play in the background while I'm doing homework or multitasking. Probably an hour at most. I don't listen while sleeping or feel the need to spend my entire day listening to something.

Another thing I did: I actually wrote an entire "success" post before anything actually happened and I basically wrote a similar turn of events. I literally kept that in my notes so that was actually the skeleton for this post. After I wrote it, it was hard for me to think I wouldn't eventually be able to post it.

The general idea is that I don't think of manifestation to be a full-time job. Spending hours affirming does not make your manifestations come true faster. Work smart not harder. Sometimes spending too long on techniques can make you constantly check for movement which can become draining and discouraging. I just view manifestation like this: I set my intention, use something to tangibly send the intention into the universe, and then I let everything else unfold the way I imagined it. Find what you actually enjoy and what helps you get into the state you want to embody. There's an endless amount of ways you can do this btw... it's not just scripting, SATS, visualizing, robotic affirming, etc., so don't limit yourself to things you don't think work for you.

Also in case anyone thinks me sending the email was a factor in the movement. Sure that is in some degree true since the call was in response to the email. HOWEVER I had no idea if he'd even read it, let alone how he'd react to it. I sent it because I wanted to express myself and get everything off my chest. I wasn't expecting him to call me a week later, ESPECIALLYYY not after he said we'd never talk again. This man has never called an ex ever again after a breakup so trust me... circumstances DO NOT MATTER lol.

Super long post but I hope this could bring a sense of hope to anyone who has gone through similar circumstances / is having difficulty with persisting. I was gonna add some additional tips, but the post is already pretty long. Let me know if you'd want a follow up with tips that are specifically for when you are discouraged and wavering. If anyone wants any follow-up posts regarding any specific topic, I'd love to share. Feel free to ask any questions!

Best of luck to everyone who read this far 🌷
