Amor"
We might note that Amor is the Latin name of the Hellenic deity, Eros, who enjoys sponsoring all kinds of adventures and misadventures. But, the only blasphemy I really recognize, as a pagan, is when one claims to love someone and actually does not. So, before evoking a god, which is what this question seems to imply, I think it well to first consider if the Love is authentic. If it is, then you will find Love wherever He or She is hiding. If not, there is a thing called hubris, which the gods punish with all kinds of ironic, insidious, and miserable sanctions. So, sit at your altar, consecrate yourself, send authentic Love, and see what clues Eros and Aphrodite send to you about the possible status of your lost relationship. If you can prevent anger, fear, scorn, or arrogance from polluting your attitude, then you will succeed, even if what you wish for doesn't take exactly the form most desired, at the moment. There are all kinds of black magical things one can do to enslave another human soul. But, if pushed too far, these always backfire, eventually. So, pay attention to your dreams, meditations, and the clues that surface in between the lines of what friends and acquaintances say. Spirits are always there to help you raise your level of care and responsiveness, if you can listen with a wise selective ear. Usually someone who asks a question like this is given another chance after he or she has been shown what went previously awry. Another chance is no guarantee of success, but it is something of a treasure, nonetheless.
