Dear All

I know it may not be right,but sometimes i feel inferior to be left as single.Even though many of couples are not as happy as it seems.I feel a bit ashamed now to be as single and talk about this issue.I wonder what makes me still alone,my character? my social ability?or...
Have u ever thougt about what make u single?
I've never felt bad about being single. There are so many more possibilities when you aren't tied down. Some people don't see it that way, but at this point in my life, I do. I think the reason for anyone who is, it's not time for a relationship yet. You don't want your soul mate to come along and not be ready for it! Take this time to improve yourself and what you want. Do things that make you happy. Enjoy the freedom. One day it will come, don't worry.

Both not enough and far too often, yes. I would say, though, apart from all my deficiencies, perhaps the timing is just not right. I've been in many relationships, and they all failed. They were wonderful at the time, and I learned a lot from them. Nonetheless, here I am now, bt I'm trying to be content in all circumstances like Paul learned to be.

I cannot definitely say whether or not having a mate/partner/wide is something I am meant for, but I'll try to try my best in all things. I often fail, and it's very hard. I believe, though, that my life is better off in God's hands than my own. I inconsistently but continually try to find how to put it there.

I encourage you to hang in there! God knows what He's doing, and make a masterpiece from our mess! I truly believe that.

Matthew 19: 12
For there are eunuchs who have been born incapable of marriage; and there are eunuchs who have been made so by men; and there are eunuchs who have been made themselves incapable of marriage for the sake of the kingdom of heaven.. Let Him who is able to accept this accept it.
Matthew 19:13-14
Then the little children were brought to Jesus, that He might put His hands on them and pray; but the "disciples" rebuked those who brought them .
14 But Jesus said, Leave the children Alone!
Allow the little ones to come to Me, and do not forbid or restrain or hinder them, for such (as these) is the kingdom of heaven composed.

God knows the bigger picture and His timing is perfect.

Looking at the changes He has done in my life in nearly ten years of being single, I'm thankful.

Considering some of the girls I've dated over this time who I didn't marry, I'm very thankful.

As for my girlfriend, I can see that the timing wouldn't have been right for us if we'd met any earlier.

I don't know why I'm single lol I am waaay to shy to go up to guys and talk to them. I tried a couple of christian online dating sites and get emails from people telling they like my profile and think I'm pretty but they are not interested because of the distance. I also go to a small church and everybody there is old and married and young and married lol so its frusterating sometimes lol.
