No one on here imho can really tell you that, God knows you best, therefore ??He can answer best. I know how you feel, I kinda wonder that myself.

I don't ever think something is wrong. When we've let God have His way in our lives, we will go through seasons. There is a time for everything. Right now, God may be making you, getting you ready for ministry, or building up your character in certain areas. Any number of things.



He sees what we will have to deal with, go through and handle (good and bad), so it's alway best, but not easy to wait on Him.



I mean, that is what I would say if I was a guy. :laugh:

Well, believe it or not, men don't go around choosing wives based on a checklist. Obviously having a lot of the qualities most Christian men look for helps, but there has to be an emotional connection. I believe God is responsible for that connection, so you're basically waiting on His timing.

Hmmm, we are all different, and have vastly different tastes and affections. But be patient, wait for a perfect one, and don't just settle on 'someone'. Trust the lord, and turn your desire for marriage over to him, and trust me, if you do that, he'll pick a match far more perfectly than you ever could.

All the other posters make good points. And may I just say: "welcome to my world".. lol. If I here one more time: "I cant understand why you're still single..".



My answer to that comment is simple.. It is in God's timing. The whole dating process can be disheartening at times, but I consider this.. Anything worthy is worth waiting for.



Focus on learning how to be content in all circumstances (including your singleness). Also, may the person God has intended for you is not ready (spiritually, emotionally, etc.)



I hope you will be encouraged in knowing that you are exactly where He wants you and that even now He is working out the details of your life.



Blessings to you sis,

Lissa

Ok, here goes. Men are simple minded when it comes to women. We want to protect, provide, eat and make babies. I am not trying to be funny here. This is the truth. It is that simple and I hope it helps. If you remember those four things you will be successful. And do not forget our ego!

Have you seen the movie P.S. I love you? Because in the movie this guy asks Please tell me what do you women want? do we open the door for you? or not? ect. And the girl says "Im going to tell you the secret of what women want but you cant tell anybody!" the guy states "I swear I wont tell anybody" The girl leans close and whispers in his ear "We dont know what we want" I find this is so true in my life-and maybe most women do too. I know that I am a God fearing woman, love my children and family and if its in Gods will would like to find a man to complete me-Is it out there only God knows? Sheila

I should sell these books - For Men Only and For Women Only. I've read them both, given For Men Only to male friends for Christmas - doubt they've ever been cracked open though. I tried. I went as far to give them to non-believing friends that were struggling in their marriage. It helped for a time - but bigger issues remained. The books are surveys taken from married, single, old, and young men. I got For Young Women Only and gave it to my daughter...she, of course, had to take her own survey and was happy that what she read was accurate.



Anyway, I've been single for 12 years now, and I have arguments with God frequently. But as another poster stated, His plans are much deeper and better than my own. Yeah, I have a "list" and it helps keep me focused on the Desires of my heart - not the wants of my heart. I can get a "man", but not one I'd be equally yoked with or get for all the wrong reasons. I have to trust that He knows best.



Yes, men are simple, but they're also vulnerable and not the hard as stone creatures are mothers said they were. Girl, read the book. It says it all, and I've got back-up guys to say it's true! :glow:
