Need help. please reply

Hi everyone thanks for viewing

My problem is simply this, I don't want to be lonely anymore and I just want to forget about girls all together and be able to focus on my life again. I have had many failed dates and relationships lately and I would like to just live a single life happily without even worrying about girls at all. How can I do this? I'm really hurting inside and I long to fill the hole but my daily routine isn't fufilling enough. I just want to be content and humble with my work and studies. I know I have a great life and everything but every day I just feel so miserable and I dont know how to make these feelings go away. please help me with suggestions

I feel lonely sometimes myself. Of course I have never been in a relationship, so I do not know how painful it is to break up from relationships. One thing I have tried in the last few weeks is reading about a new lifestyle. I am getting into Christianity. Someone bought a book for me called The Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren which is an excellent book for anyone who feels like they lack direction in their life. It places much emphasis on Christianity and God. I am starting to have faith again because of this book. I can definitely say that there is a little bit more direction in my life now as a result of reading this book.

Maybe you haven't found the right person for you yet. If all else fails, you could always try browsing personals and find females in your area that are single and meet a certain criteria for you.

Good luck and I hope these suggestions helped!

i agree with S4il. i believe that when you actually STOP looking for love, it will come find you when you LEAST expect it. i want to tell you that it HAS happened to me 3 times. after each break up, i realize that i had met those exs of mine when i was happy with myself, living my life (tho sometimes i feel lonely - everyone does sometimes) and having a good set of friends around me. DON'T find love. when you don't, it will come looking for you.

i also believe that we also need to find our faith and strength in God and pray that one day He'll bring the person meant to be with us in our paths. caldus, i'm so glad for you and i hope that God will grant you a good direction and path to take in your life and in your love life. i am trying to lean and trust Him too in my life and the Will He has for me.

take care of yourself ... and your heart.
