I dunno, I'm in a place right now where the very idea of a future special someone is repulsive. Granted, I've got fresh wounds and might feel differently when they heal. Still, though...those fluttery falling in love feelings have always meant trouble for me, so I'd rather skip ever feeling that again to avoid inevitable pain than feel high on lovey-dovey emotions for a few months only to get burned.
Ooh I'm positive today...
Lol I know those days

Ella, I agree with zaoman and ugly.

There is no rush. I'm going thru something similar. Been a year since my last relationship but that's ok. :). There are joys in being single as well.

For me, honestly, I am loving the process I am going thru right now because I have all this free time to develop my love relationship with God. And yes, you can't physically see him, but girl, he can fulfill all of your emotional and spiritual needs if you let him. And it gets even better... Because he is the perfect guy, you will find no other like him.

So just take your time and get to know God more... And the more you know him the more you will understand his heart for you, which allows you to avoid unnecessary relationships and heartaches. As said previously... No rush.

But if you do find a guy of interest make sure to ask yourself... Am I dating him simply for the feelings? Or does me and him together reflect the beautiful glory of God? If you answer yes to the second one, more then likely you are headed in the right direction. :)

Amen amen amen!!!
You totally hit the nail on the head!!!
I'm so loving my journey with Christ at the moment. This is the whole reason why I have turned to Christ so much!
The BIGGEST reason why I'm single right now is because I know without a doubt in my heart the Lord has put me here.
He did not want me in that old relationship, that old life.
He wanted me get get right with himself first then he wants to be able to choose the right guy for me. And I pray soooo much that he send him a guy with brown hair blue eyes tall tanned. Hahhahahs Jks
It's all in God's hands I really do trust in him. He has been right so far.

So it's been 9 months single now and still haven't decided to put myself back out there again and don't know if I want to lol
Has anyone else gone through this? Curious to know what you did to overcome this feeling or thought process that comes to mind. Every time I consider being in a relationship again. Its like ugghh hahaha!!

Then I miss the feeling of being in love :'(
So sad :( lol!
Everyone needs someone special in their lives.
Well, whenever you feel you are ready to tackle love again, I have a very short and simple suggestion:

Instead of falling in love, grow in it. :)

Definitely, sometimes you think you are in love, but then over time things can change and your grow out of love.
Growing to love one another - and to KEEP growing is worth something, more than anything.
Someone that builds you up, someone that picks you up, someone that understand you and keeps wanting to give.
Would be nice :)

I know exactly your problem. I really desired to fall in love with someone again, or get the special deep connection with someone, but at the same time, I thought to myself "Ugh, girls are too much work."

The thing is, I believe this with every fiber of my being, when you meet someone special, and someone that's worth your time it will just click. One day you'll look in the persons eyes and just know that it's right. You may be waiting a very long time, but God works things in at the time He feels is appropriate, and in some cases maybe he's just waiting for you to actually ask him too, who knows?

Anyway, some people will more than likely disagree with me, but that's how I see it.

I´m afraid your thoughts are right! I think I´ve been set the same place.

That's how I see it ;)

I think when you get to feeling that way, you just have to trust God and remember all that He's done for you. It's a lot easier to be patient when you can rest in knowing that He has a plan that is good and perfect. And then wait until you find that person who stirs your affections not only for him, but for God as well, and then carefully and prayerfully walk into that.

The thing is, you could be the most perfect woman in the world, and if it's not in God's plan for you to be married, you won't be. But you could be far from perfect (and I think we all are) and you could meet someone tomorrow. It's all just a matter of leaning in to God and putting your faith and trust in Him knowing that He loves you deeply.
