Pray for God to search and find a man of your heart's desire. When He presents this person to you don't be afraid to act. Loneliness cab be a hard thing. I wish God's best for you.

I have been let down by chocolate frequently. Especially that alleged chocolate that starts with an H.

Shift your focus from romance to something else.

The more you dwell on your desire for romance, the worse state you will put yourself into.

Focus on other things, find a hobby that you are excited about, do things you enjoy more, and spend time coming closer to God.

That way you will spend less time thinking about something you dont have and find ways to feel content with what you have now, your necessities and peace of mind.

Try not to let it become your main focus, Keep your eyes open to those who are in your life, it may be God is working in regards to that and you do not recognize, do not give in to desperation or you might, in a single moment of weakness make a mistake you live to regret and pray, pray, pray be very self controlled.
Those are my thoughts right now

Loneliness is a normal because God designed us to seek human connection. It only means that to get rid of the blues,you need to reach out to others not necessarily a romantic interest but also friends and family.

Besides enjoying chocolate... :rolleyes: I remind myself how much work a relationship really is.. That its not the panacea (perfect answer) that some think it is..

And then I remember how relationships almost always end in lots of heartache and pain...
Like need-for-therapy level pain! :eek: At least I get to dodge that bullet. :rolleyes:
