Can you manifest a specific person? Yes! You can manifest ANYTHING using the Law of Attraction. But what I want to talk about in this post and video is why you should NOT manifest a specific person. Hint: It’s because I think you can get even better results with manifesting your soulmate another way! Of course, this is simply my opinion, and if you truly wish to desire your specific person, I say go for it!
Let’s jump in…

Should You Manifest a Specific Person?
So we’ve already established that you can manifest a specific person. But beyond that, should you do it? I have two reasons I think you should NOT.
And before we jump in, I’ve heard many stories about manifesting a specific person going both well and not so well. When it comes to success with Law of Attraction in the love department, I wanted to share my thoughts based on my personal experiences. But I’d love to hear from you if you’ve manifested a specific person, so do comment your story below!
Reason #1: You may manifest a specific person but not get your needs truly met
So say you’re looking for a relationship with someone where you have the following, and they:
- like to travel with you
- respect you
- make you feel loved
- like to hold your hand
- make you feel safe
But you’ve had a crush on this guy, Joe, and you decide to manifest a relationship with him. In the relationship, you find out that he respects you, makes you feel loved, and likes to hold your hand, but…
…he does not like to travel (he’s a homebody), and he doesn’t make you feel safe (he’s a trusting soul and leaves the doors unlocked, among other things). Now you have a relationship where you may (keyword=”may”) have to compromise on traveling with your significant other and getting that feeling of safety you desire.
Of course, this is just ONE example, and you could have manifested a different specific person who DOES give you all the things you want. This isn’t a case of always having one or the other. A specific person certainly CAN give you everything you want.
The key here is that focusing on a specific person opens you up to the possibility of compromising on what you truly want.*
*And yes, since you can use Law of Attraction to manifest anything, you can also manifest those other things you want. Personally, that’s just a lot of mental gymnastics that I don’t want to deal with.
So, what if you could get EVERYTHING you want from a significant other? You can! This brings me to my next point…
Reason #2: You cut the Universe off from giving you the full abundance and limitless possibility available to you
In the example with Joe, you got your guy, but you had to compromise in a couple areas of your relationship.
Whereas if you focus on manifesting your ideal relationship, you will get EVERYTHING you want – whether it’s your specific person OR someone else. The Universe is full of abundance and limitless possibility, so there are many matches who can give you everything you’re looking for in a relationship!
You can guarantee having a relationship that gives you all of these:
- like to travel with you
- respect you
- make you feel loved
- like to hold your hand
- make you feel safe
If you focus your thoughts on the above qualities and are open to the Universe delivering the perfect person for you.
I actually manifested my ideal relationship by focusing on a list of ideal SO qualities. At the time, I thought there was someone I already knew who may be my ideal match. However, I ended up dating someone completely different. Could I have manifested the person I knew? Probably! However, that person most likely not have moved to SF with me, and I wasn’t interested in a long distance relationship. So, it seems to have worked out well!

Summary
In short, whilst you can manifest a specific person and that person CAN give you everything you want, I personally find the risk of compromising on what I want in an ideal relationship too high.

What do you think? Should you manifest a specific person? I’d love to know your thoughts and hear from anyone who’s done it on how their experience went. Comment below!
Hi, I had a question about manifesting relationships. What if you’re considering manifesting a friendship, because you see I have a best friend named Justina and we’re in high school but recently I moved to a different school and in the past times that I changed schools I have lost contact with some great friends. I have other friends at this school but Justina is the most true friend I have ever had and there is no one else like her. My biggest concern is that we don’t like to keep in contact much over the phone since we much rather talk to each other in person. What would be the best possible way to manifest my relationship with her so that we stay friends.
Actually, this article was good but you put on too many limitations. If you want to manifest your specific person and they love to travel, you can manifest that. Why so many limitations?
I agree with you. I am manifesting an sp and I just affirm “we are perfectly compatible” and “he shows up to me exactly the way I need him to.” No mental gymnastics necessary. If you can manifest someone to want to be with you, it’s easy to manifest that they also like to travel or like to hold you hand. No need to affirm for every little thing, just affirm you’re compatible/soulmates. She said it wouldn’t have worked out with her old sp anyways because he wouldn’t want to move to SF with her, but she could have easily affirmed that he wants to move there with her. It’s her choice of course, but sounds like she’s giving them free will. People new to loa can be very misled by limiting beliefs like this 🙁
Hi Hange, I removed those extra comments for you 😉
So this article was more of an opinion piece rather than saying “this is the only way it works”. 🙂 I definitely acknowledged in the post that you can manifest anything, including manifesting your sp to show up how you want. I didn’t get into it here, but beyond free will, there is also the multiverse idea where there is a perfect multiverse where you and your sp are happy together and you can shift into that if you want.
The reason I shared this is because I’ve read hundreds of comments online of people stressed out about manifesting an sp – about it not working, about how they got them but then it ended up not working. And I think the reason is because for most people, it can be a real challenge to get into the thinking that it will work out and the sp will shift into what they want. So this article is for those manifesting who are probably earlier in their manifesting journey who are maybe newer to shifting their thoughts, releasing the outcome, and trusting the Universe/higher power. I’ll consider editing the post in the future to clarify this. Cheers!
Oops, my comment wasn’t showing up and posted like 3 times. I’m sorry!
My boyfriend broke up with me almost a month ago, so pretty recently and a few nights ago I had an urge to manisfest him back into my life. Our relationship was always a little bumpy but never anything extreme and when he broke up with me I was obviously devastated and it seemed like he could care less but I know that’s not true, anyways we started to have less and less contact as time went on so I started to manifest and out of the blue he on added me unfollowed me blocked my number. Which is weird because we haven’t really talked since we broke up so it was just out of the blue I’m not sure if I continue to manifest or if I need to except my fate as it is right now
Hi Jessica, I’m sorry for the delayed response here and also sorry to hear about your break up. That is always a tough thing to experience and work through. The good news is – You get to choose whatever you want in this life. There are no limitations with the Law of Attraction. Have you gained any new clarity over the last couple months?
Interesting. Several years ago, I bought a cute little house in a cute little town. It was a fixer-upper, and I had no idea how to approach the renovations (I’m in my seventies and widowed).
So, I decided I’d manifest myself a boyfriend/handyman. Or maybe a handyman/ boyfriend. LOL.
I didn’t have a specific person in mind, but I had a long list of talents he needed. Sure enough, he showed up. He was also in his seventies and a widower; a master carpenter and a jack of all trades.
We went together for about three years, then we drifted apart. He’s now happily attached to another widow in town who also needed a handyman and I’m happily alone with a much-improved house. It works!
Hi Marie, what an amazing story! Thank you so much for sharing. 🙂
Hi, a few months ago, February to be exact, i tried manifesting my now boyfriend to be attracted to me. I only tried manifesting for one day and never tried again and completely forgot about it. We did end up getting together and Im happy about our relationship but I now regret it and thinking it might have to do with the manifesting and feel awful because now I feel like it was against his free will. Can you help me? Should I tell him? thank you.
is manifesting a specific person taking away their free will? I was talking with some friends about it and they said I shouldn’t do it because the person I like should like me for who I am. Thanks for this article btw it was very helpful 🙂
Hi Emily, This is a great question! From what I’ve researched, there are 2 different schools of thought (could be more, but I’ll focus on these 2 to answer your question). The first is free will, which as you mentioned is the idea that people have free will, and you can’t or shouldn’t manifest against that. Besides free will, a lot of LoA teachers talk about focusing on what you want and letting the Universe/God/your higher power bring the best, most aligned match to you (which is what this article is about). The other school of thought is about the multiverse / multi-worlds, which says that there are many different possible worlds out there, and somewhere out there is a world where you and your SP are matched and happy and you can manifest your way into that version of reality. Hope this helps! 🙂
