Nothing wrong with wanting to be loved, I suppose nearly everyone wants to be loved. But longing for attention can be problematic, especially for adults. Marriage is not usually what many people think its going to be or fantasize about. Don't become a chore to your husband or friends by demanding attention, the opposite effect is usually the result. jmo
thank you.

Everybody needs love. sister. But sometimes people don't recognize the real definition of love in Christ. Including me.
thank you for the reminder.

my sister...a big mistake that most of us are guilty of is.. relying on others for our happiness and love...i can tell you
that sooner or later ...people let you down..we can't help it...we are human and miss a lot of signs thrown at us...because
most of us are giving our all just to keep our own heads out of the water...depression , loneliness is a trap...take control of
your own happiness ...turn it over to God...its easier than you think...
but when you truly feel sad,or depressed...reach out to someone who needs to be lifted and lift them up..you will see that helping others gives you so much peace, joy and love...give this to God and get out of His way......He has worked on my heart.. and now that i don't expect others to make me happy...I have found people want to spend time with me ...no one wants to be around people
who are sad all the time...start counting your blessings...things in your life that you do have...instead of the things you don't..
and soon you will see changes...peace jo
i feel sad and depressed quickly. thats my problem. im wondering why other couples can be sweet to each other. anyway.. i knw ive so many issues but.i think if i am more open in sharing my feelings, i will not be like this. but i really dnt knw why it is so hard for me to tell other people my hurt or wt is in my mind. i cnt even tell my husband too. so basically, i feel ive no friends who will understand and just listen.

Seems other posters missed this. So are you thinking your husband has love for another woman? You think he is being unfaithful? Is this the reason you are feeling alone?
ive been alone eversince. even just right.after we married. that is how i felt.

Perhaps you need to renew your mind! From the post I Have read sounds like a lot of negative thinking going on up there! If you think and ponder on those negative thoughts you start to act on them and then your feelings and emotions catch up to them. You Say I FEEL ALONE. God says I WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU OR FORSAKE YOU! You Say NOBODY REALLY LOVES ME. God Says I LOVE YOU. Also one thing to also keep in mind is however you feel and with any words that are negative that you show or speak about to your Husband effects him just as well. You are blessed with children and a Husband ! Pull the blinds up from your eyes and ask God to show you more clearly!!!!!! Love&Prayers To YOU

If you're expecting God to blow in and shove you out of the way so he can take over, you're mistaken. YOU (and hubby) need to be proactive in helping God to help you. He can't and won't do anything if you choose to keep wallowing in your misery. I think the advice Purpose gave in her post, would be wise for you to follow. :)

You sound like you are lacking very important part of marriage: a healthy conversation. I know it's difficult to open up but I highly recommend that you should talk your husband about how you are feeling.

In my own marriage there was issue that was let being unspoken months before it bursted out as an arguing and totally came as surprise to me.

It's possible that your husband have no idea what you know and how you feel and unless you speak to him, he cannot be the husband you need.

If the speaking feels difficult pray and let it go by prayer. Whatever happens is in God's hand.

Thanks for making it clearer. I see. You and your lunch friends meet, chit-chat about all kinds of stuff and then, later, the topic is about the Purpose Driven Life. And you still feel that your friends actually care less about your chit-chat? Ok then..if you realize the truth, the TRUTH shall set you free. That means that you don 't need to attend with the intention of loading them down with your stories and such. Meet your friends, socially, enjoy the moment with them at lunch, but instead of wanting to vent or speak up about your life, why not be a good listening ear, and become an encourager. Why not compliment more, allow them to speak about anything without automatically thinking you need to vocalize your little world to them. if they ask your opinion or advice, by all means, please do so. Nobody enjoys a good bore! lol Introduce a topic that they can feel like they could offer up an opinion. Keep the focus off of yourself and see how that changes your attitude.
