I was in a 6yr sinful relationship, engaged for 5yrs of it. I left after I was saved 1-9-2022 because I could see the yolk before my eyes. I knew the lord wanted me to go do I did. She had found someone else about a month after I left. Now it's been about 10 months. I feel alone sometimes in a wanting companionship (I'm not talking lustful). I know I have the lord with me and I don't feel alone in that way, just in a company since I guess. I don't think my choice of words are right but I hope you understand. Dose that feeling go away. I know now that she must have not truly loved me but there is an emptiness inside. I can't say I miss her because I really don't anymore. Does it go away?

Hi Talljake :)
I think it's normal that you sometimes feel alone and want to be in a Godly relationship. I think God has made us relational beings. He has also given us the strength and joy to wait on him for the right person and the right time.
I was in a 3 years relationship myself, never engaged to him, thank God! However I see it as a blessing that we are no more together as it was a sinful relationship. When I decied to follow Christ, I prayed a lot that God would break every soul ties of my past.

Hi forever_saved 😊. Amen, I too am thankful we have separated. The lord had shown me things while we were together and even after I had left. She had shown me how much she didn't love me. The hard thing for me is even though it's been a decent amount of time that we have split apart, I feel an empty spot from where she was. It is strange for me, I don't have any relationship feelings for her but it's just an empty spot on my heart. But thank you for your comment, I pray the lord will fill that empty spot with love and joy.

I'm sure he will. I do feel that spot empty as well sometimes, even though I've not been in a formal relationship for over 4 years.
Lately I've being focusing on how to become a wife, a woman of value and virtue, a proverbs 31 woman and mother that God has made me to be, rather than searching for someone. I think a way of waiting is also seeking wisdom on how to handle the blessing when it comes. I'm sure God will feel your heart with hope when you lay this at his feet.
