Are dating and relationships supposed to be this difficult
Posted : 2 Jan, 2025 10:31 PM

I've unfortunately been feeling pretty down about not being able to find someone to date and settle down with. Some days, I don't mind at all like it completely slips my mind. It is very hard though when you see everyone getting engaged around you but you.



One of my best friends has been married for about 9 years. I just learned that my other best friend got engaged this past year. I don't know what it is about me but no one seems to want to even embark on anything with me. I don't understand why. I find myself very positive, nice to be around, adventurous, and down-to-earth. I like a lot of different activities and such if they would just give me the chance.



I've gone on dates where men just want physical, they are silent, or they just don't want to put any effort in. I do want to get married but can't achieve that if everyone hates me. Should I just give up or put myself more out there or what?

Good points silver, I’ve seen the same thing.

Some people just look like they’ll never find anybody. The next thing you know they’re happily married!!

Wanted to add, you see some other people you think shouldn’t have any problems finding someone and getting married and some of them are the ones having problems.

Excuse me but I have been turned down by women for all the stupid reasons. One of them turned me down because I fear flying. A Christian that turns down another Christian just because of fear of flying. If you are so lonely here I give you the chance to get to know me, I am single.

if women are holding too many cards that is because secular society has trampled upon Biblical principles. Remember the story of Moses when he helped the women draw water from the well. They probably just said thank you and then left him alone until Jethro told them, where is the man that helped you, how did you leave the man like that? Bring him here so that he may eat bread. But what happens today is happening in Western countries or better say in white countries. In Asia and in Africa women do not hold most of the cards. And they are much more open to dialogue and conversation and far more tolerant in dating and less exacting.

Now we get treated unfairly all our lives, yet we are not even allowed to be angry at this.

2 Corinthians 6:2

I tell you, now is the time of God’s favor, now is the day.

Maybe one of your lady friends would like to add you to her family.

In all fairness if you’re afraid to fly surely you’re incompatible. Who wants to be in a relationship & still have to go on holiday on their own…:-)

Heu Sparkly, i just kind of posted on this a bit under "ask a woman". I can totally relate. It is amazing how there are so many single people and some seem very kind but just missing that little something. I was told by an older man i work with you can't be picky! 😄🤦‍♂️. Yeah, okay. So let's just date to get divorced. Of course he isn't Christian nor is he much of a philosopher of love obviously. So are we too picky or should we settle? What are we settling for if we do? If you still pop in here feel free to hit me up. We can chat here or in private with the other side about this. Constructive talk is productive talk and maybe we can both benefit.
