is being single by faith?

I have always been in-love with the idea of being "in-love", but it seems to be that I could never get to have that love i longed for. I have waited for a long time now i find myself watching all my friends and family members getting married and having babies, even those kids i used to teach are now all grown up and married. I feel i am left behind, I know I am ready to settle down. The only problem is with who? I am not a loner, I go out and have fun, try my best to meet people, a few times even have dates but i never end up having that person who would want to stay and want to be with me. At my age of 30 plus it seems not fun to be alone any more. I sometimes think could being single is by faith? Am i really meant to be a single old maid?

Time maybe will help you understand things better in the future about these stuffs as I believe there is a time for everything to enfold in one's life.

I think it is your fate accept it and so be it. I believe that love comes unexpectedly I hope it going to happen with you. Don't stop hoping I believe God have plans for everyone of us. I hope you going to find the right guy for you soon.

I sure hope your right as sometimes i can't stop feeling jealous of my friend who are so sweet with their bf when we are all together, i feel so left out at times cause i am the only one without a partner so when we walk they are all in pairs and i would be all alone behind... there a just times that it really gets into me.

Maybe you are very choosy that is why you are still single. Yes, being single is by fate (faith). Many singles (old ones) have lots of love life when they were young but still they left out being single in life. The Holy Bible also said that there are people who choose to be single to serve God, some choose to be single by themselves while others were destined by fate. So cheer up, you are not yet 50 years old. You still have more time to make searching at the internet. Happy browsing.

well i don't really think i am choosy, but i did only had one boyfriend and we broke up as he left due to something with him, i am just a simple person my only requirement is that the person should relly love me and not just fooling around with me... i think every most women wants that, but i just don't understand why it happens just like this. i wanted to be love, i wanted the feeling to be in-love again cause i know it feels so good but i can't seem to find that right guy for me. Well i am still not in a elderly age so i will take your advice to continue my search who know eventually my guy will turn up, i hope sooner rather than later though :) Thanks

it could be either! i mean, some people prefer to stay single while others either try to hard or just dont find the right person. if it is fate, then some one is really messed up if they came up with MY life!

I don't think it's faith, but its a choice being single. I believe things should not be hurry because if you do you'll end up falling to the wrong hand and later on you'll be separated. Why don't you just relax and enjoy life being single, just go on and have fun and soon you'll find the right one for you. Don't pressure your self.
