Hi everyone,

As we grow matured mentally and physically, there are things in life that changed too. If last time, we used to explore on things, decide things of our own but in the end, they were disasters and yet, we did'nt even realize our mistakes until we have reached to an age when we realized that we have enough of those things already. That when you have reached to that point, you realized that you want to settle down.

Have you experienced the same way as mine, too?..or maybe you have different experience that inspires others that you may share with us. So pls feel free to share it...

God bless us all...

Yes, i have. But-I'm an introvert. I like to live alone. I like that i can have my space.

But yeah-sometimes -i want some company (my friends/family). I love long meaningful conversations.

Do i want to settle down? Yes and no. I mean i want to have my own family. But i know it would be a huge test for me to settle down-since i like freedom.

Yes, I stop and pray to God when I feel lonely. The enemy tries to get us to fill that loneliness in an impure way. God is strengthening me to wait for His best. Be blessed, friend!

I'm in the military, and I am a christian. When I chosed to enter the military I was not a christian. It is hard to be a christian and be in the military because I cannot find many in the army that strive to be better christians and therefore I find myself alone, feeling loneliness and emptiness because I don't have any true friends in Christ who I can share with all the amazing things He does for me. A lot of my comrades do not believe or choose to selfishly live. I part myself from many and I find my self alone or sometimes I join in their secular conversations to have a sense of belonging somewhere. I do find some entertainmen t when I get close to speak about unholy topics with my comrades, and recently I have been doing so often to avoid feeling so lonely. If I say anything about the Lord, someone always says a disrespectful comment, a comment of unbelief, or start an arguement about religion. I do not regret joining the military service, it has taught me valuable character traits, I now know how to be a Soldier and be loyal to my superiors. When I gain my freedom back, when I finish my miilitary service, I will go back home, and I will be a Soldier for the Lord, and never again will I serve anyone or anything else, except for the Lord.

I agree with all of you. Since we came from different background, we have different experiences too. But the bottom line is, in some point of our lives, we feel that loneliness and emptiness in our hearts simply because, all of us are created by our Lord not to live alone but to have someone with us. Our hearts are wired that way by our Lord and that's why we have that longing to be with someone special. But the questions of when, where and how are we going to find that person is a very big question mark because if we trust the Lord with all of our hearts, we need to be patiently waiting for that person because we know that if it the Lord who gives that person to you, it is perfect for you even though the person himself is not perfect. God knows each and everyone of us from head to toes. He knows everything about us and so therefore He knows exactly who will be that person that fits you. But most of the time people tend to decide on things in life particularly major areas of our lives, and so when they decide and did not ask the Lord of His will, then comes the frustrations, disappointment, anger, resentment.

I think everyone feels lonely from time to time. When that happens, I ask Jesus to be my everything......to fill me and change me so that He's all I need. It really does help :)

Yes I feel alone all the time since getting out of a serious relationship. It's very hard for me because although I like to have space from friends and such, I really put all of my attention and efforts into a relationship. But I feel like I don't have many friends now since getting out of the relationship, because I had realized most of my friends weren't good, therefore, I became friends with my ex's friends, which now aren't friends since we broke up. I've been praying, but it hasn't been healing me the way I want it to. As I said, I like having alone time from friends, but not from a significant other.
