I am also having a hard time connecting with people. It could be that I am recently divorced and am not used to the dating scene yet. Also, I am dealing with the stigma that comes from being a divorced Christian.



With this, I pose an additional question to the forum: Would anyone here be open to dating a divorced person? Why or why not?



It will get easier once I get back into the swing of being single again. Old habits die hard.

I have not had much luck either with this or any site. I too am divorced and aslo have a young daughter. I feel very uncomfortable having to talk to people and often don't know what to say. Small talk is extremely difficult for me. I too wonder why people don't want to get involved with a divorced woman. For me, the divorce was initiated by him for no other reason than that he wanted to have a new relationship with another woman (my maid of honor) and couldn't be married to two women. I did nothing wrong, and yet I suffer the stigma of being a divorced woman. I miss having a guy's presence around me and knowing that i am his and he is mine, but I want it to be a Godly Man, not a worldly one.

I agree with the wanting someone around, i am 44 and a single mom, I have been single for 7 years, although i have had two abusive mariages, i have decided to wait for God to pick one for me, I do not have good judgement for men. The few guys i have met only want to be friends with benefits and I do not handle that very well, the fuilt overwhelms me. It is hard to wait but if you dont, the way the world is today, you cannot be sure what you are getting into.

I am a divorced black female with 2 children. God want us set set the standard what you like or dislike. what you want and what you don't want. Set the part and don't comprise your standard and the word of God. The bible a man that findeth a good thing and obtain favor from the Lord. We as woman have to stay in a place of prayer AND WANTING THE THE GUIDANCE OF THE hOLY SPIRIT AS OUR GUIDE AND THE WORD OF GOD AS OUR SOURCE OF COUNSEL. i BELIEVE YOU WAS IN A ABUSIVE RELATIONSHIP THAT HAS DAMAGED YOUR SELF CONFIDENCE. gOD WANT TO HEAL YOUR EMOTIONAL WOUNDS. i BELIEVE YOU NEED TO SET BACK AND ALLOW GOD TO HEAL YOU AND TAKE YOUR SELF OUT WITH GOD. MAYBE YOU CAN CONNECT YOURSELF WITH SPIRTUAL FRIENDS WITHER IT BE MALE OR FEMALE THAT WILL ENCOURAGE YOU AND SPEAK LIFE INTO YOUR SPIRIT. GOD IS YOUR ONLY SOURCE OF TRUE LOVE. UNTIL YOU RECIEVE GODS LOVE YOU CANNOT RECIEVE LOVE FROM ANYONE ELSE.YOU MUST BE MADE WHOLE TOTALLY OR THERE WILL BE a void in your life. a man cannot fulfill that longing. You must be at peace with your self. Draw closer to God. Do like Ruth in the bible she took care of God business and while she was taking care of God's business God favored her with Boaz. God bless!!!

Don't be in a rush! God moves in his timing. Be a man devoted to the Lord in prayer and the Word of God. Focus on the vision of God for your life and what God want you to do for him and while you are working on God's plan, God will put a Ruth in you path like he did Boaz.



Learn to hear the voice of God and God will always direct and guide you. Always get God's approval for everything you do.



Enjoy the moment with friend and family and when you least expect God will provide that special someone.

Learn about money, conflict and resolution, business,how to be a leader and role model so on and so forth.



Many blessings.

sound like their are self esteem issues here. There is still hurt from you previous marriage. sound like you need closer and healing in your emotions. You will never know why a person does or say the things that they say unless they are honest. You cannot make anyone tell you the truth which lead you to let go of yesterday and move foward to what God has in store for your future. You can never move toward tomorrow if you are holding on to today.



Look at it this way God was helping you out of a situation that could have ended up worst than what you think it is.

His lost your gain. God has great thing for you a future and a hope. You were created for purpose and pain will bring change. all this is going to work out for your good. There is a greater purpose to help someone else like yourself to overcome like you are to provide them with encouragement that they can make it because you made it with the help of the Lord. Focus on God and your relationship with him. Growing closer to the Lord by reading his word and praying more. Get up early in the morning and have fellowship with God. He will make you whole and you won't be quick to get in wrong relationships for the wrong reasons. read phil 4:8

I can do all things through Christ who strengthen me. Amen. There is no problem that God cannot solve he is the Great advisor. take care!!!

I am filling a little left out in my family because everyone even my 14 year old brother has someone . . .

My mom is kind of seeing a friend of hers and my younger sister (who is 19) has been dating her boyfriend since Feb. 2007 and my little brother has been "dating" one of his friends sisters!!

And for me . . . I always feel funny going home on the Holidays because I am the only one that does not have a date . . .

So I really can't take being a long anymore . . .

Oh ya . . . I can't forget that half of my friends from high school are ethier getting married or are married !!!

So I kinda feel like God has forgotten about me !! And I wonder if he is going to let me find someone that I can love . . .Or does God want me feel uncomtforable around my family , that He has blessed me with ??



So if you can help I would really like that !!!





God Bless ,

Its good to have a partner and someone you could be with but its not everything . We should know in life is that We only need Gods love and when we gets his love and when we put our life to him then he will fulfill everything we want.

But we still need to do and live our lives as God words.



be blessed

If there is one thing that pleases God the most it would be having 2 people who love him love each other. Otherwise he would have made a woman for a man.



I must confess for the longest time I felt incomplete without having a companion at my side. But my time alone here on earth has brought me closer to the Lord. I have realized that I have a lot to be thankful for, and have done a lot of repenting for pass sins. I know that he is preparing me for what hopefully is my true destiny.



I have this posted elsewhere on the forums but feel it appropriate here.



At Last Honesty



God: �What�s the matter?

Me: �I�m lonely!�



God: �I know! Don�t you think I know that?�

Me: �Yes Lord.�



God: �Then what�s the problem?�

Me: �I�m lonely.�



God: �What do you want?�

Me: (Repressing the honest answer I speak:) �I want what you want Lord.�



God: �You have it.�

Me: (dead silence)



God: �Something is still bothering you. What is it?�

Me: �I�m alone.�



God: �Why is that a problem?�

Me: �I�m not happy.�



God: �And why not?�

Me: �I don�t want to be alone.�



God: �You said you wanted what I wanted.�

Me: �Yes Lord.�



God: �You have it.�

Me: (silence)



God: �Isn�t that what you wanted?�

Me: (at last honesty) �No Lord.�



God: �Then you do not want what I want?�

Me: �I do, but I also want to be married. I also want what I want.�



God: �The problem is not your desire to be married. That is a good desire.

The problem is that you expect that I should give you

what you want when you want and how you want.

If a sparrow does not fall without my knowledge...

If I dress the lilies in such splendor...

If I cloth the grass of the field which so quickly withers...

Do you imagine I have forgotten you...my beloved?

I have not forgotten you...do not worry.



God: �You are still troubled...why?�

Me: �I�m lonely.�



God: (gently) �I know.�
