You know I used to think I was fine being single but lately it has been a deep yearing in my heart to find someone but alas a cuddle bug like me may be destined to be alone I don't know surely there must be a reason my heart feels this way and it just kind of came out of nowhere. oh and for all who think they are not good enough not pretty enough not interesting enough not enough in general let me assure you that you are I can promise that
You will find dear Trust our Father

Hi
How are you? I’m new here and it’s my pleasure meeting new friend to share his word with and more if God willing. I do believe as a believer we’re not alone in this world no matter our situation and conditions. The Lord’s with us.
God Himself gave us the desire so no matter how no matter how strong we are some days feel different.

You MIGHT need another year just to not be an emotional basket case for a relationship....I know that probably is not something you want to hear....because likely you want a bunch of kids. (Who doesn't eh?)

Don't sweat the small stuff. I know you likely have not looked at dating appliance repairmen....but they are smarter than they look usually.
Thank you

Whenever someone implies I should be grateful for being single because it would bring me closer to God, they have no idea how the core of my being boils over that. It takes all I have not to scream in response, "I've only loved one woman in my life that way, and it's been almost 20 years! My heart and mind are so crazy, not hating or blaming God for that every day has become a conscious choice!"
Please b patient and wait on the Lord . U r very precious to Him and He wants to make sure that when He gives u to her and her to u , that u r both ready for what will happen ❤️ Life is so much about timing and God's timing is perfect . Just go about your business being u , a good Christian , grow love in your heart through Him and His Word , show that love every day and every where that u go and u will get it back . There is someone out there who God made just for u and when the time is right Hr will put u together . Patience , and trust in Him .

Oh my dear I can feel your frustration and I sympathize with you. Please I think you got stock at the first love, open your heart to other women and my dear its not a sin to ask them out. please ask them out and don't over think it.
If I was a man I would be asking girls out. one refuses I move to the next. I know men like ladies who look like Nicki Minaj but just go for it. I encourage you

Y'all use the slang "Basket case" what does it mean.
Hi Edith, basket case refers to a person who is anxious and often a little crazy. It can be a general condition (like, Sally is always such a basket case) or a temporary one...... like "planning my wedding turned me into a real basket case".
