How to Manifest Your Ex Back with the Law of Assumption
Getting an ex back is one of the most emotionally charged manifestations people pursue. The pain of separation, combined with the desire for reconciliation, can make this feel impossible. But Neville Goddard's Law of Assumption provides a clear, proven path forward.
The core principle is this: your ex's behavior toward you is a reflection of your assumptions about them and about yourself. The breakup happened because of the assumptions that were dominant at that time. By changing your assumptions, you change the reality you experience, including your relationship with your ex.
Everyone Is You Pushed Out (EIYPO). The version of your ex that broke up with you was reflecting your inner state. A new inner state creates a new version of them in your experience.
The Crucial First Step: Heal Yourself
Before attempting to manifest your ex back, you must address the pain, hurt, and insecurity that the breakup triggered. If you try to manifest from a place of desperation, fear, or neediness, you will only reinforce the assumptions that contributed to the breakup in the first place.
This is not about suppressing your emotions. Feel them fully. Grieve if you need to. But then consciously choose to shift your state. The goal is to move from "I lost them and I need them back" to "I am loved, I am whole, and my relationship is restored."
Step-by-Step Ex Back Manifestation Guide
Step 1: Use Revision on the Breakup
Neville's revision technique is essential here. Before sleep, revise the breakup conversation or the events leading to the split. Reimagine them going differently. Instead of the argument, imagine a loving conversation. Instead of the farewell, imagine an embrace. This removes the emotional charge of the old memory and plants new seeds.
Step 2: Rebuild Your Self-Concept
The breakup likely damaged your self-concept. You may be thinking you weren't enough, that you drove them away, or that you don't deserve another chance. These assumptions must change. You are someone who is deeply loved, valued, and desired by your ex. Assume this new identity.
Step 3: Create a SATS Scene of Reconciliation
Don't imagine the apology, the reunion text, or the makeup conversation. Imagine a scene that takes place well after you and your ex have gotten back together. Imagine normalcy. Imagine a lazy Sunday morning together. The key is to skip the dramatic reunion and go straight to the wish fulfilled.
Step 4: Maintain a Strict Mental Diet
Your mental diet is crucial in ex manifestation because the temptation to spiral into old stories is intense. Every time you replay the breakup, check their social media, or tell a friend the sad story, you reinforce old assumptions. Catch these moments and redirect to your new assumption.
SATS Scenes for Manifesting Your Ex Back
The Couch Scene: Imagine sitting on the couch with your ex, watching something together. Feel their warmth beside you. Feel the comfort and familiarity of being together. There is no awkwardness, no tension. Just two people who love each other, enjoying a quiet evening. This implies everything is resolved.
The "I Love You" Scene: Imagine your ex looking at you and saying, "I love you so much. I can't imagine my life without you." Feel the sincerity. Feel your heart respond. Say it back. Feel the security of knowing this is real and permanent.
The Morning Scene: Imagine waking up next to your ex. Feel their presence before you open your eyes. Hear their breathing. Feel the peace of knowing you're together. This is not a hopeful dream. This is your everyday reality.
The Friend Scene: Imagine a friend asking about your relationship and you responding, "We're doing great. Better than ever, actually." Feel the truth of those words. Feel the pride in having worked through your challenges and come out stronger.

No Contact and the Law of Assumption
No contact is a common strategy, but in the context of the Law of Assumption, it serves a specific purpose: it gives you space to shift your state without being triggered by your ex's current 3D behavior.
No contact is not a manipulation tactic to make them miss you. It's a period for you to rebuild your self-concept, establish your new assumption, and stop reacting to the old story. Once your state has genuinely shifted, you may find your ex reaches out naturally, or you may feel inspired to reach out from a place of confidence rather than desperation.
Common Mistakes When Manifesting an Ex
Stalking Their Social Media
This is the number one mistake. Every time you check their profile, you're looking for evidence in the old story. If they post with someone new, you spiral. If they seem happy without you, you despair. Stop checking. Your ex in the 3D is reflecting old assumptions. Your new assumption will create a new reality.
Manifesting From Pain
If your dominant state is heartbreak and longing, that's what you'll continue to manifest. You must find a way to shift to the feeling of being in a loving, restored relationship. SATS at night is powerful because you can briefly set aside the pain and immerse yourself in your desired state.
Telling Everyone the Breakup Story
Every time you tell someone about the breakup, you reinforce it. If someone asks, keep it brief and redirect: "We're working through some things" or simply change the subject. Your words have creative power.
Testing the Manifestation
Don't send a test text to see if they respond. Don't engineer a "coincidental" meeting. These actions come from doubt, not from the state of already having. When the time is right for contact, it will happen naturally through the bridge of incidents.
Frequently Asked Questions
What if my ex is with someone new?
A third party situation is one of the most common scenarios in ex manifestation. The third party exists in your reality because of your assumptions. Do not focus on them. Focus on your end result: you and your ex together. The third party situation will resolve itself as your assumption takes hold.
What if the breakup was really bad?
The severity of the breakup in the 3D is irrelevant to the Law of Assumption. Whether it was a mutual parting or a devastating betrayal, you can revise the past and assume a new present. Many successful ex-back manifestations started from the most painful separations.
How long does it take to get an ex back?
This depends entirely on how quickly you can shift your dominant state from heartbreak to reconciliation. Some see movement in days, others in weeks or months. Stop tracking time and focus on your inner state. When being back together feels natural and certain, the 3D will catch up.
Should I reach out or wait for them to contact me?
There is no universal rule. The important thing is the state from which you act. If you feel genuinely inspired to reach out from a place of confidence and love (not desperation), it may be part of the bridge of incidents. If reaching out feels anxious or needy, wait. Trust your inner guidance.

Related Comparisons
Revision vs Mental Diet
Revision and mental diet serve different but complementary purposes. Revision heals the past and removes limiting impressions, while mental diet shapes your present and future assumptions. Together, they form a complete inner practice. If you must choose one, mental diet has broader daily impact.
VSLetting Go vs Persisting
This is not an either/or choice. True manifestation mastery involves persisting in your assumption while letting go of attachment to the outcome. You persist in knowing, not in wanting. The calm confidence of someone who already has their desire naturally includes both persistence (in the state) and letting go (of anxiety about the result).
VSSelf-Concept vs Techniques
Self-concept is the foundation; techniques are the tools. Without a strong self-concept, techniques produce inconsistent results. With a strong self-concept, even simple techniques become powerful. Prioritize self-concept work, and use techniques to reinforce and accelerate the inner shift.
