keep doin wht your doing. God will show you the way

I couldnt have put it better myself.I wish i had waited for the Lord to guide me to Mr Right but i rushed ahead. Now I have a broken down relationship with an unbeliever and someone who is or was contemplating Islam!

So now it is all about me and God growing closer, I learnt my lesson that its all in Good time.As for missing out on anything.. all i got was heartache and tears..

Wait on the woman of God and ladies for the man of God and I pray there shall be no such pain or heartache..

Peace

Hey,
Know that maturity is the ability to delay gratification.Ask for grace to be more patient and make friends with many friends(especially xtian friends who are girls) on a platonic level and very soon you'll be able to make the right choice.Bless you

In the title of this thread, you ask if you are missing out. I say, if you have a relationship with Jesus, then the answer is NO. He is sufficient, and a better companion than anyone here in the flesh. Keep your relationship with him in the #1 slot of importance in your life, and you will not go wrong. If you are meant to be with someone, then the Lord will introduce you. Count on it.

God bless,

Amen brother Nigh. Jesus IS sufficient and our relationship with GOD comes first. If our relationship with Him is in good standing, then the rest falls into place.

Matthew 6:33
But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.

u know i am in a similar situation, 22 aswell and waiting on God, i plan to wait on God for the write mate. trial ands error is somethimes good but ui don't believe it is in this case. and this is my belief personally. i've told God that the only man i that i want to date is the one that is going to become my husband and i intend to stay that way. the other night i was asking him about my marriage and who my mate will be and he told that all i have to do is seek him first and all these things will come after. waiting does not have to be a drag. love God grow in him, so that when your mate does come you are spiritually grounded and prepared for marriage.

when you seek him he will be found by you. go all out after God.
develop an intimate relationship with himm so that when he speaks without a dubt you'll know its him
also pray for your mate whomever she maybe... don't wait until you know who she is... pray the decisions she makes, her family she relationship with God. it may sound silly but it isn't
hope this helps

Think about it this way if the first person u ever date is the one you shared your first kiss with, your first date, your first love then that is a real special relationship!

Hey i am also 22 and i have to tell you i wish i had never dated. All it does is add baggage that God never intended us to carry. Stay strong in the Faith and continue to trust in Him and His righteousness. to bring you into the most perfect and well planned relationship you could ever want. For after all if God could speak such a beautiful universe into being He will do the same for your future relationship!
God Bless and stay strong Brother

"The kingsdom of heaven is like a net that was let down into the lake and caught all kinds of fish. When it was full, the fishermen pulled it up on the shore. Then they sat down and collected the good fish in baskets and threw the bad ones away." (Mt 13:47-48)

Single folks ought to employ this system when it comes to relationship with the opposite sex. Get to know the people well; their likes and dislikes, their morals, etc. Then put the "good fish" into a "dating" basket and discard the others.

Don't avoid dating, but don't rush into dating, either.

Well, Ive never been caught up in this world of dating. Ive never been, and still am not very interested.

22 is not too old... Its actually a fairly mature age to start. And seriously i doubt we are missing out. Honestly.... When your young and immature and dating, it can be a real mess. And "hah" bright side... you’ve never had to deal with a messy break-up. A broken heart! All those dating dilemmas..

Why do you feel like you need someone?? NEED? Strong use of a word...
You could pray, and pray and pity yourself cause you feel...oh, so lonely. But God isnt going to bring the girl of your dreams to your doorstep. Its not going to be THAT easy.

So i'll tell you what you should do?? Just go out there and talk to people. If you find that you share alot in common with a girl, then ask them out. Be prepared for rejection... And dont take it so personally. It can happen.. And usually, its not really about you... Girls can have other reasons for not being wanting a date..

And no. 1 !!! Get to know the girl before you ask her out..
