Just when I was about to lose hope

I started using The Secret about a month ago when my boyfriend of just over a year broke up with me. I had used The Secret previously (I only read the part about relationships) to attract him into my life, so I thought that it might work to attract him back.
I took the break up pretty hard because it was so out of the blue, and for this reason I did struggle to stay positive and stay on the right frequency. I kept worrying about the how of things and I was so concerned that I was just getting my hopes up only to be disappointed. It wasn’t until I read a story on here about forgiveness that I finally let go of all that worry. I decided to forgive my boyfriend and I apologised for what I had done. I wrote it in a letter to him and after I read it to him, I promised myself that I wouldn’t think about the past anymore. I focused on each day being a new day and trusted that the universe was bringing me what I wanted.
Last night I was at his presentation night with him (we had sorted out a while ago that I would be his date). I focused really hard on trying to exude happiness and confidence, but I still didn’t seem to be getting what I wanted. I had woken up that morning so sure that he and I would get back together that night. It got to the end of the night, we had talked happily all night, but he still hadn’t asked for me back. I had almost lost all faith by the time he was walking me to my door, that I was about to say goodbye to him for good. Out of the blue he says, “I think I’m falling in love with you all over again.”
I woke up this morning so happy and grateful to have him back as my boyfriend. I literally cried tears of joy last night when he said he wanted to be my boyfriend.
I knew I just had to share my story with everyone else on here. I am the biggest worrywart in the world, and if I can do it then you can too. As soon as you learn to let go, that’s when everything will fall into place, even though it may not seem to straight away. Learning to let go was very difficult for me, and I would call him in tears and fight with him at least once a week because I just couldn’t let go, however once I decided to forgive and forget, it felt like a huge weight was lifted off my shoulders.
Thank you for reading my story. I hope it will inspire you just as the other stories on here inspired me and helped me to keep my faith alive. Thank you so much to all those who do share their stories and thank you to The Secret team for teaching me how to attract all good things into my life.
