Writing is a powerful tool.
In this post, I share how my dream partner and I manifested each other through writing. We both had different methodologies behind why we took to pen and paper, and I discuss each below.
At the end of the post, I share 9 journaling prompts to help you manifest love.

Forget manifesting a specific person, your dream partner awaits.
Finding My Old Journal
A couple of months ago, I was going through my old journals and looking for a specific journal entry from when I was a child to quote in my blog post about journaling. During my search, I found a journal of mine from 2.5 years ago. I flipped through the first few pages and noticed entries where I was manifesting my dream partner.
A week later, I started talking to my current partner.
I had written sentence after sentence, filling over half of the page, describing this person and the relationship with such detail. (This is actually quite impressive since my handwriting has been described as microscopic before…)
I sent a photo of the journal to my partner (we are long distance, so typical communication is over the phone), exclaiming how I manifested him years ago. To my surprise, he told me years prior he had used writing to manifest his ideal partner, too.
SAY WHAT!?!
Law of Attraction and Love
My partner, Riley, is a big believer in Law of Attraction. This is something we discussed on our first date, many years ago.
He mainly listens to Abraham Hicks and follows their teachings on the subject. I won’t try to explain their teachings in this post, so if you are curious about that you can learn a bit more on their website here.
SO:
- What about the Law of Attraction led Riley to write a list to describe his “Dream Woman?”
- How did he use Law of Attraction to manifest a partner?
Riley used writing as a means to reflect and think deeply about his desire for a dream partner. By thinking positively about his desire, he more easily allowed it to enter his orbit and materialize in his reality.
His journal entry differed from mine in that it was a list of qualities he wanted in his dream partner, nothing more, nothing less. After thinking about what he wanted in his dream partner, he wrote it down. He did this about 1 year before we met.
A symbolic way to state to himself, and the Universe, what he desired.
Scripting and Love
My use of writing as a means to manifest my dream partner contrasted to Riley’s method of using writing and using Law of Attraction to manifest love.
At the time of writing that journal entry, and even to this day, my beliefs on how the World and Universe work do not fit nicely into one ideology. I take bits and pieces from several teachings and mold them with what I believe to be true about life and our purpose on earth to create my ideology.
So it does not surprise me that a YouTube rabbit hole is what led me to shift how I journal and become more intentional with pen and paper.
I do not recall if she is the first person I watched on this topic, but RoxyTalks and her YouTube videos on scripting and love stand out to me when I think back on this time and making the shift in my writing habits.
Scripting is essentially writing your desired life in the present tense as if you are living out that dream reality.
Using Scripting to Manifest My Dream Partner
My method of scripting to manifest my dream relationship was a mix of:
- Describing my ideal partner
- Explaining our relationship dynamic
- Discussing how I felt in the relationship
- Expressing gratitude for my partner and our relationship
All of these elements were written in the present tense as if I was already in this dream relationship. I did not think too deeply about what I wrote, just a stream-of-consciousness journal entry. Whatever I deemed important enough to include in that moment made it into the journal.
One week later, I started talking to Riley.
Let me repeat that: ONE WEEK after scripting my dream boyfriend and ideal relationship, I started talking to the person who I’ve been in a relationship with for 2.5 years, now.
Even when we started talking and going on dates, I did not stop writing about my dream relationship.
I continued to write about this dream partner without mentioning any specific names and focused on the qualities I desired in my partner and relationship. Even during times of uncertainty, while we were in the early stages of dating, I would script.
I focused on the ideal relationship, my perfect partner, and manifesting love, regardless of who it was in the flesh. I knew what I desired in a relationship and that I was deserving of such a thing, regardless of who fit the mold.
If not Riley, then someone else is meant for me and will fit in this dream partnership.
Dream Partner is Better than Specific Person
What is it you are actually after when you put all your energy into manifesting a specific person?
Reflect on this question and be honest. Who they are in the now does not fit that perfect partner you are seeking or desired relationship. If they did, you would be happily together with them! Unless your perfect partner is someone you are not actually with — ha!
I strongly believe that when using writing, scripting, or any other tool to manifest your desires, it is best to let go of certain specificities and to allow for the Universe to surprise you. Even if there is a specific person that you are trying to manifest.
When you focus on manifesting a specific person, it generally comes from a space of lack and desperation.
You are not desperate.
You are confident in yourself and have been putting in work to become the best version of yourself. I know you deserve this ideal relationship and dream partner. Stay in your power when you manifest your desires. Especially when writing and journaling.
I filled pages and pages, scripting my dream boyfriend and ideal relationship, focusing on the scenes I created and the emotions and gratitude I felt for the scripted relationship.
Today, although I do not script as frequently about this dream relationship because it is something I have in my reality, I still turn to writing and scripting when I wish to manifest a specific outcome with my partner.
And when I do this, I generally do not state my partner’s name.
We’ve been together for years and I still leave the ambiguity in my scripted scenes.
I know that I deserve this desired love and if Riley (or any specific partner) does not fit into my desires, then someone else better will. This is the energy I use to manifest love.
