		<description>Even Sinners and unsave people find mates, good mates, and they are able to have good marriages.  I don&#039;t think its suppose to be that difficult and I think there is plenty of marriage material out there. It rains on the just and the unjust.</description>

		<description>Why does it seem so easy for others? My brother, who doesn&#039;t even socialize very much, happens to go to a party one nite &amp; meets his wife. This was only 3 months after his last relationship broke up. I have family members who have come out of divorces and meet someone in no time at all. I&#039;m 43 &amp; all I ever wanted was to be a wife &amp; mother. I just knew these things were just around the corner when I was younger &amp; so full of hope. Now I&#039;m getting too old to have children. I don&#039;t want to die without knowing the love of a companion. I have dated alot in my twenties and thirties and am told I&#039;m very attractive but have experienced much rejection in my dating relationships. I would meet someone, get my hopes up, and things would be great for awhile only to be left for someone else. I&#039;ve always felt that other women had some magic secret that I lacked. I pray to God everyday to pick someone for me. I have alot to offer but men just don&#039;t see it. I&#039;m tired of all of the worn-out cliches when I try to talk to people about this. I always felt invisible when it comes to men-kind of like they were looking through me, like I didn&#039;t exist. Why didn&#039;t I get picked? I cry about this every day now. I&#039;m ashamed to admit this but I have developed an addiction to help deal with the pain &amp; loneliness. The ache has just gotten to be too much. Where can I find someone when most men my age are married? Why won&#039;t God answer my prayers. I&#039;m tired of crying every day. I&#039;m tired of trying. Why can&#039;t anyone see my value and pick me? I&#039;m sorry I&#039;m rambling about this. I&#039;m just being honest &amp; pouring my heart out right now.</description>

		<description>Kathyrn,
How can an opinion not be honest unless I write an opinion I know I don&#039;t truly believe?  People write to me for my best answer or advice... when I can give a Biblical black and white answer I do. Otherwise I give my best opinion based on principle and experience.</description>

		<description>I was noticing the &quot; my answer&quot; part , that is just an opinion and not reasons why the asker is still single. One doesn&#039;t know why she&#039;s still single  ! I&#039;m still single myself and don&#039;t know why either but so amazed at how much people don&#039;t know by what they claim they do 
Brent instead of writing 8 unecessary paragraphs highlighted by ur opinions , not fact , and be honest , &quot; I don&#039;t know &quot; is honest , ur opinions aren&#039;t</description>

		<description>I have completely given up on God  sending me a husband.  I have prayed for 20 years for a husband. I cant go thru this another 20 years of my life. . I have been so depressed to the point I wanted God to take me home with him.    I am to the point in my life that I really dont care about it anymore. I wont to have peace more than having a mate.</description>

		<description>All these comments sound like my train of thought. I am only a senior in HighSchool (I know it&#039;s too young for these things) but recently I have been thinking too much on what my future wife would be like. I like to think that she will be a virtuous women from Eastern Europe and will have really good looks like those blonde magazine models. Of course I would be ideal and great too. Then I focus only on my imaginary wife and God becomes second. One thing is that I would like to get married at 30 and raise up fine children but God probably laughs at my plans. It&#039;s only a fantasy and I realise how ridiculous I sound now so I&#039;ll just try to focus on The Lord first.</description>

		<description>I am wanting to get married too..i have seen many of my friends get married and have children. i am thirty now and wonder will i ever find someone that loves me just like i love them? people tell me i am beautiful and should have no trouble finding someone but i haven&#039;t found anyone i truly love. sometimes i have felt that God wants me to remain single so i have felt bitter thinking my singleness will last forever...lies from the evil one rest assured! i know that from nights of being bitter upset and frustrated it is better to trust in God for my future than to not trust in God and i pray that God makes my husband into the man for me and likewise me for him!  so i will go one trusting in God and try to be thankful for what he has given me..which are many blessings! i don&#039;t even know when my last day on Earth will be so i will try to trust him day by day.  I love you Jesus!!!</description>

		<description>Correction:
If you know that being single is not something you can handle, then you have to take action to procure a mate.</description>

		<description>All my life, all I&#039;ve ever wanted to be was a wife and a mother.  Now at 49 years old, I do feel that I may as well quit asking for that.  Even if I did get a husband, at this point in my life, I don&#039;t want &quot;bear&quot; a child or even the responsiblity (, day care expense, soccer, pta, after-school, etc) that comes with.  But since I&#039;m officially in menopause since June 10, that&#039;s prety much a done deal.  I keep telling myself that surely God did not put me on this earth to take my mom when I was 6 years old, my father when I was 9 years old, my brother out there on drugs, and just leave me out here alone??  But that&#039;s just how I feel, i&#039;m brought to tears when I see moms and their children, couples, I truly am heartbroken, and don&#039;t understand why, it&#039;s such a simple request and certainly one that is in keeping with Gods&#039; wishes/wills.</description>
