I Am Almost Giving Up



Dear Lady. Ann:

I’ve been praying for God to send me my husband for 11 years now. I turn 30 this year. I am still going to pray for whoever he is because I have a firm belief God is going to send him. However, I am also giving up. I don’t want to do this anymore. I’m not losing hope or faith, because like I said I firmly believe it will happen. It was suggested to try an online dating website. These are so expensive, but I purchased a 6 month subscription. I’ve talked to a few guys. Some have fallen away on their own. Others had some big red flags that came up and I ended it.

I am not super picky and I don’t have a million standards I am looking for. I simply want a husband that believes in God and lives for Him. Everything else is just a bonus, if he has it he does, if he doesn’t, oh well. I’m just sad. Sad to see all the couples around me. Sad to see families being started. I haven’t been looking, but looking. Like not expecting, but hoping maybe this will be the one. I seem to always fall for guys that don’t like me back too. So, I am giving up. I have been focused on God for months now, like actively. I’ll continue this. Being in the word daily, praying and communicating all day. I’m just tired I guess.
