Asking For A Sign.

As a preface, I’m very new to the concept of manifestation and the law of attraction. I was reading all of these success stories here as well as on other websites, and was thinking “I wonder if that could work for me?” There’s so much I wanted to manifest, but my biggest obstacle was my own belief that it may not work for me.
I had read a story here of someone asking the Universe for a sign and promptly receiving it. So I did the same. I opened up a Google doc and wrote, “Please give me a sign, and I will believe. Let Frank comment on my Instagram story that he is grateful for me.”
Frank is a man I’ve been secretly dating for about a year. I have strict and overprotective parents. We date exclusively but have no label on it which has been utterly frustrating. I had been feeling extremely frustrated with our relationship and where it was going, or better said, the lack of progress. I was feeling extremely unappreciated, as if I didn’t matter. When we had originally talked, he had put in a ton of effort. He would Facetime me daily, talk on the phone every single week, and we were writing to each other daily. Then that all slowly stopped. Soon we were writing to each other sporadically, no FaceTime, no phone calls, and seeing each other every other week for a few hours. So I was feeling like this was slowly coming to an end.
Recently, I had been listening to subliminal affirmations on not chasing but attracting, and ones that would improve self-worth. I stopped begging for his attention, and suddenly he was Facetiming me again. This time to ask me for an opinion on the multiple apartments he was looking at renting. While this was an improvement, it felt like he was doing it to serve himself only and had little to do with actually wanting to talk to me.
So I renewed my request to the Universe to deliver me a sign by him telling me he appreciates me via Instagram.
The Universe delivered, though not in the way I had asked for! Maybe an hour later, I received a phone call from Frank. He was on his way to the office, and he felt like he should give me a call. No other reason besides that! It had been months since he had called me, so this meant a lot to me. He even then called again after having finished up in the office.
I now clearly believe the Universe has my back and can’t wait to start my manifestation journey!
