Well maybe being in a relationship is more important to others than it was for me but I was far more interested in seeking God out and developing a deeper love and connection with him than finding my other half as people say. I figured if I just seek him out then if there is a girl he wants for me she will appear going with the best advice he gave me when I first became saved seek love above all else and everything else will fall into place, i don't remember if I had heard the scripture seek first the kingdom of God and all else will be given when I heard him speak to me like that but regardless I listened I sought love above all else everyday I hungered to know love more to become more like love to have love enriched in my heart and soul and in my bond and relationship with love.
In doing so he brought the love of my life Stephanie also known as artsiesteph, perhaps people find love another way but all I know is that I took fathers advice and I found the women I want to marry one day

Im not really "actively" looking, no.
Id like to be with someone, one day, sure. It would be really nice, Im sure : p But I dont believe its an incredibly important thing that I need to have right stat now, and I feel like there are other things in life I should worry about atm.
Im waiting on God, and I mean like, right now its a dream in life that could be really cool, but I dont feel a strong need or urge to do it. Maybe one day God will tell me its time to do so. But right now, I dont feel its needed.
That doesnt mean I wont date until then or anything, but at the same time its unlikely that I will if Im not putting in any effort : p
Oh, I do often pray on it, though. I pray for God to guide me in this part of life, and to show me the path He wants me to take, and help me understand whats important. Sometimes I kinda wonder if marriage is a part of God's plan for me. Maybe one day, but atm Im thinking its not a part of His path for me : p

Great post it made me laugh lol! Yea it can be hard when you're young and all your friends are with SO's or getting married.....but the key is not to rush anything.....don't let it consume you and realize being single gives you freedom to do what you want when you want how you want.....when you have a wife and kids you become a little more locked down so to speak and have to consider 3 other individuals preferences, likes/dislikes, abilities/disabilities....it will limit your options to what is good for the family for example you may want to go to a NBA basketball game but your family may want to go on a picnic......since 3 other individuals want to go to the picnic the picnic wins out over the NBA game.....whereas if your single you can do either NBA or picnic and the choice is up to you entirely 
Let things happen naturally and don't go putting yourself up on dating sites/ads just to say "oh I have a gf" it will feel forced and cause long term heartbreak....I say pray wait and ask God to bring the right person.....us humans jumping up and down and rushing things only screws stuff up....

It should not take a miracle for you to get a girlfriend and you should not wait for it. Some things you have to do for yourself. Even if the Lord puts something in front of you its up to you to get it.
For most its not about waiting for a miracle, but it was for me. The Lord told me specifically about the woman I was going to marry when I was young so I was waiting for a miracle, and it happened. But I still have to work hard at making it happen and keeping it. And I have to keep walking in the Lords will for the miracle to stay.

"I am not afraid..."
I just want to find "the right one"...
( And, I am depending on God to bring her into my life. )
"Go ahead -- reject me -- I can take it..."
( After all -- I am used to it... )
I basically "start out" in the friend zone...
[ "The friend zone is my friend..." ]
NOT!
( I do sincerely hope that this post "comes across" in a very humorous way... )

Lol! I was talking to the OP who has fear of rejection. You will never know if she is the right one if you just wait and sit there like a duck. It's good that you don't have that fear. Don't get too cozy on the friendzone, it's a bad zone of unrequited love.

I wrote my CC profile so it was clear that I was single.
I made a long detailed description of what I am looking for and what I have to offer.
A young lady on CC found it interesting and decided to strike up a conversation with me.
Skipping the details, we have now been dating for well over a year.
Don't think I can call this the "pizza delivery gal" style of getting a relationship. It also doesn't fit the "traditional" version that many women seem to desire where they stand in a public place waiting for a good man to see her value/integrity/greatness/charm and pursue her start to f̶i̶n̶i̶s̶h̶ eternity.
Nope.
I put myself out there. Let the world(so to speak) know I am single.
She initiated contact.
I set the course for relationship. Over time, I suggested talking on the telephone, then video chat, then went to visit her.
