A couple of questions

As a 16-year-old Christian in a country with only 17 (or 19)% people who really believe in the Christian God, I feel myself lonely. It is hard to find actual believers and all the Finnish forums are inactive.

for my own people here in Finland.

Here are some of my personal questions:

1. This one is about love. What does the Bible say or does it say anything about relationships outside marriage? Especially for me as a part of youth, I can't get married. Although I haven't been blessed with the right one yet :C

2. Why exactly haven't I been blessed with the right one yet? I've prayed the Lord's Prayer and thanked God for everything I have and apologized my sins. He knows that I can't be fully happy without one (since He knows everything). He seems to be teasing me through dreams, since every night I dream about a certain girl who doesn't really exist (or exists but hasn't yet come to my life). And no, it's not biological, psychological or sick in any manner.

3. Is it enough to fullfill my faith alone? I have friends who say I need to go to the church daily and some who say I don't need the church. I've been baptized in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, do I need more than that out of the church?

Thanks you in advance and sorry for the length. May the Lord bless you.

You are 16, there is plenty of time to meet the right one.

Your relationship with God grows as you know more about God. The best way to know more about God is reading scripture.
I suggest two things.
1) Start a bible study habit, read some every day. My best time is early morning.
2) Pray daily and journal, you will grow as you see how many times God has answered your prayers.

Notice I did not say anything about attending church every day. Go to church and support your local church but also understand that it's not a church that saved you, it's Jesus. Study Him.

Receiving the spirit of God is a miracle, it's a gift given to those that have been allowed to see their lost condition and they cry out to the Lord: Romans 10:9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.
