I truly believe in manifesting, although I do think it makes people selfish in many ways. They want to know how they can make 'Joe' into the boyfriend they want. How to make him respond better and treat her better and be more affectionate, loyal, loving, faithful. In short they want Joe's body but not Joe. Not who Joe is fundamentally. They want a new improved version. They claim to love Joe with all their hearts. This is not love. The Bible defines love this way. (NIV version)
4Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Look at Joe, really look at him, he is probably some hapless guy just trying to enjoy life. Thats the man you fell in love with. If Joe is not meeting your needs or expectations you need to walk away or accept him for who he is.
Let's say you want marriage and Joe cannot see himself married and tells you so. Is marriage your heart's desire? You need to honor your hearts desire. Tell Joe you are honoring him and walk away. Will it hurt? Yes.
It also hurts waiting five or six years for something that never happens.
There is a balance in love.
