We had a good, serious discussion and I'm glad. I'm so grateful for everyone's support here. T was able to acknowledge where she'd misstepped. And so was I.

The appointment ended well except I was a little surprised that she wanted me to spend time working with 'manifesting' the boyfriend that I want. Taking some notes about what an ideal guy would make me feel like, be like, a kind of 'drawing someone towards me.'

It sounds good but also...gosh, do things really work like that? I mean, they could. I guess I'm going to give it a try...I mean what do I have to lose? Match.com certainly bombed.

Mainly I'm glad things turned out well. My life is much better than it was before therapy.
I believe strongly in the power of manifesting and setting intentions. Many people claim that it has worked for them. That, of course, does not mean that it actually does work but I believe it does... Each to their own though and I know many on here will disagree.

Always it is worth a try and as you say you have nothing to lose by doing it. If you are going to do it though put your whole heart into it and not half do it. Not sure if that makes sense as I'm not very good at explaining what I mean but anyway. Have you ever read the book 'The secret'? Worth a read if you are curious about the law of attraction etc.
