My Own SP Success Story
Like many others new to Neville Goddard, one of the first desires I intentionally put work into manifesting in my 3D was a specific person. Like most people, my specific person was someone I fancied romantically but whom circumstance seemed to keep from me. And, again like most stories about star-crossed lovers, ours could fill the pages of the most epic of books and still yet have more to say.
Before my rediscovery of the “law of attraction” and later Neville Goddard, I was a student in a science program at my local college.
My specific person was someone I met at school, after he merged into my college cohort. Although my interest with him developed over time, he instantly stuck me as remarkably physically attractive in a very classic way. He had a fantastic and silly sense of humor, shared common interests with me, and had a quiet but warm personality that made me gravitate towards him. He intrigued me early on, and in no time I had developed feelings for him that grew more intense by the hour.
The thing was, I was in a monogamous long-term relationship at the time, and my silly ego told me that he was way out of my league anyway, so I left it alone and told myself it wasn’t meant to be.
But seeing him several times a week for our shared classes still had my imagination running. I’d imagine what it would be like to kiss him, to be the one making him smile, and overall what it would be like to be with him. Fantasies would play while I was driving or when I was alone, and even in class sitting ten feet from him; all completely unintentionally. In fact, being in a monogamous relationship, my effort was more on trying to distract myself from these thoughts instead!
A few months after meeting my SP, my partner at the time opened a dialogue with me about polyamory. It came totally out of nowhere, or so it seemed. Polyamory was already something that vibed with my values, so we decided to give it a try. I was too insecure to try for my SP, but I ended up meeting amazing people and finding a second partner that I loved very deeply.
Still, something was holding me back from making a move on SP. I was hung up on circumstance, and insecure because of how attracted I was to him. I worried that he wouldn’t like me, and if he did he for sure wouldn’t be open to a polyamorous relationship. Circumstance, circumstance, circumstance. I couldn’t see yet that my physical world was already shifting to give me exactly what I desired.
The school closed temporarily, and I again tried to put SP out of my mind.
But when the campus reopened in the fall, I was both excited and mortified that he and I were two of a grand total of three students attending on-campus classes. SP and I were going to be nearly alone together for the rest of our core classes. If I’d known what I know now, I would have laughed at the absolute contortionist act my 3D was performing for me.
Late in the fall, after falling for him harder day in and day out, I started to put together events in other areas of my life and remembered learning about the law of attraction years ago. I dived down a rabbit hole and ended up with a new realization: you can absolutely manifest specific people and relationships.
I’d never thought of it before. But I decided to give it a shot. That night I decided I was going to manifest a relationship with my dream guy, no matter the circumstance. I told myself that if I could do this one thing, which once seemed so far-fetched and unattainable, that the law was real, and I could do anything.
At first, it was difficult to build faith, but I carried on trying. I scripted a lot at the time, so I would write out my affirmations or describe scenes to put me in the feeling of being with him. I would visualize often but didn’t really have a specific scene.
Originally, SP had seemed kind of closed off from me, even cold. Frankly, I’d thought he wanted nothing to do with me, based on a couple times trying to interact with him and gauging his reaction.
Winter quarter began, and as the weeks turned, I noticed SP become markedly warmer. We would laugh more in class, his body language changed, and he started holding doors and giving me more attention. He started being sillier, and his eyes would look to me expectantly at the end of every joke. He started sneaking in personal questions about my interests and even what kind of men I liked.
During that quarter, there was still no big movement. But by then it didn’t matter. Persistence paid off and I knew we were already together. There were days in class where he would do something that made my heart flutter and I would have to check my 3D reactions because I thought I could kiss him right there in class! I was having a hard time checking myself on the 3D because my imagined relationship with him was so strong. So by the time we had our last class together and it looked like I might never see him again, I was calm and knew that he was mine no matter what.
I didn’t know what to call it at the time, but now I know I was in the sabbath.
Winter break was long, and I had hoped I might be with him for the holidays. The holidays came and went, and I was a little disappointed, but it was okay, because we were already together in spirit.
Then it happened.
One January morning I opened a dating app, and there SP was.
He’d already “liked” me. I just stared at the screen for some time. Then, I opened his profile, liked him back, and closed the app.
He messaged me only minutes later. We both played coy at first, laughing about finding each other on a dating app, catching up on our holidays, and a little bit about school. He mentioned that he was disappointed at the idea of not seeing me in class anymore. We talked back and forth for a little while before I took a deep breath and finally sent him my phone number.
He texted me almost immediately, and we talked back and forth all day. Finally, I got my nerve up and confessed that I’d had a crush on him for some time, and he eagerly replied that he’d felt the same way!
That was the moment that I knew the law was real, without a doubt in the world.
The person I’d dreamed of and longed for was showering me with love. The person I’d once thought wanted nothing to do with me was sending me goodnight texts and good morning messages. The person I thought was out of my league was now telling me I was out of his league.
I’d once told myself that if I could manifest him, I could manifest anything in the world; that was how much doubt and resistance I’d originally had around him. But he was there, loving me as much as I’d loved him.
This experience taught me not only that I really was in control of my own experience, but dozens of other lessons about the law that I brought forth into other endeavors.
The 3D world will twist and contort and banish any circumstance to align you physically with the state you occupy; I had plenty of moments where I forgot that my SP and I were not already dating, and I couldn’t just hug him in class or kiss him goodbye. It was a matter of mere weeks between entering that state and him showing up in my physical reality.
They will show up, but not always how you’d think they might. My SP found me after he signed up for a dating app, even though he’d liked me for more than a year and saw me at least twice in person every week! Let go of the “how” and let it come to you.
They are manifesting you, too, even if they don’t know it. In the first week or so of talking, my SP told me that he would constantly imagine being with me. He would fantasize about getting to hang out with me on campus after class. He would dream about kissing me, and would think about getting to make me laugh every day on his drive to school. And, as the law dictates, I showed up in his reality when he let go and got on that dating app to find someone else! Everyone is just yourself pushed out, and the version of your SP that you’re manifesting is out there manifesting the version of you that wants them, too.
And lastly, it might look like nothing is happening…until it suddenly does. I saw my SP every week while intentionally manifesting our relationship. Even though he was being more friendly, the 3D gave me absolutely no measurable proof of his feelings until it all came out at once. I was faced with our very last class together, and it seemed we would never see each other again when I said goodbye to him on the last day of that quarter. There was no visible movement during most of that break, until the morning he showed up as the version of him that was madly in love with me.
