Yes, this is a prayer request thread, so I ask that other than giving me your stories, please don't forget to pray for me.
Everyday I get lonely because I just work and go home, and do nothing else. My friends are okay with not hanging out because they're either busy studying or have boyfriends to see, or husbands to entertain at home. I just don't have many friends to hang out with and I get lonely and long for friendship.
And no, I don't have a boyfriend or a husband. Strangely enough, at 25 I still haven't had my FIRST boyfriend, and it gets more difficult every year. When I hit my 26 birthday, it's going to be harder for me to write, "I'm 26 and still haven't had my first boyfriend." At 27 it will get even harder. It's not even the peer pressure. I am overall a lonely and needy person and while I try to seek God first, it is not good for a person to be alone as the Bible states. I truly understand this. With the loneliness also comes the fear of aging. Please don't say, "There's a lot of people older than you whose aging concerns would be more valid than yours." If you've never had a boyfriend at my age, it's hard NOT to be afraid of aging because you would want someone to enjoy your youthfulness while it lasts. So far NOBODY has been able to enjoy it. Please pray that God will address this for me. I'm really hoping that He would send someone my way very soon so that this person can enjoy my youthfulness.
So is anyone else in the same boat as someone my age or older who has never dated and doesn't have many friends?
Also, please pray for me.
