I'm afraid I can't help you much. People would talk.

Seriously, though, I'm no big fan of being single either. In my case though, it works out better than the alternative which was a wife who actively despised me and said-- before witnesses no less-- that she didn't care if she killed me. I'm single again, and so help me in this case I expect I'll live a trifle longer than I would have if I'd stayed married.

So, a word to the wise: Don't be in such a hurry to marry that you miss important details. It's better by far to be single and wish you were married than it is to be married and wish you were single.

Well, I'm not going to marry you either even tho it is legal in MA.

Hear! Hear! I have asked women to dance with me.Some have said,"No!" I have asked some women out on a date.Many have said,"NO!" At 57,I have asked two women in my life to marry me. BOTH said,"Yes!". NOW,I wish they both had said,"NO!" You,see, it is better for me to be single than to live with a woman who feels that her main calling in life is to emotionally torment me. My secound wife is a multi-millionare.Yet,she did not want to share her money. I told her,"Well, you can have your money! You just will not have me!" Also, the best thing about being single is that you can drink
orange juice straight out of the bottle.

Have you tried asking God what He wants you to do while you are single?
He has a plan believe it or not and He has a reason why you are single. I've been married and now am single (not by choice only by death) and there are worse things than being single.

I like being single, but not so single that I don't have a GF. So I have a GF. We both have no interest in getting married right now. That seems to work pretty good.

Yes I have and by His grace Ive been able to do many different things and still am. Im aware of what God teaches us in the bible about serving Him whether we are single, married, widowed, divorced. The bottom line is I HATE being single, its not a right or wrong issue. Im just being honest and saying how I feel about it.

If someone feels happy about being single then thats good because I like it when people are happy. However Im not happy with being single, now this doesnt stop me from serving God but it does cause me to be unhappy.

I understand were you are coming from with the, there are worse things than... statement but there's always worse things than....... everything has a worse things than.

Now back to the op, who's gonna marry me

Hmmmm, I get what you are feeling, but how can you serve God with your whole heart AND hate being single and be unhappy about it at the same time? So you are serving god grudgingly?
I'm just trying to understand, I mean for me, sometimes I'm not happy about where I am in my life, but I don't let myself dwell in those thoughts long because it leads to nowhere good. Everyone has their down days, moments etc. but you are saying you are unhappy and HATE being single, but it doesn't stop you from serving God. Is that what you're saying?

My hate of my singleness isnt a hatred towards God so I can still serve Him. Do I serve Him wholeheartedly I wish I could, in my experience its very rare to see anyone who does this.

I dont blame God for being single, Im partly to blame as well as some women Ive met in my life. God doesnt force people to marry, we make wrong choices and Ive done my fair share of that.

What does limit my service for God at present is health issues. I dont see anything wrong with me hating my singleness and it doesnt get in the way of my serving God. I think its best to speak truthfully about how I feel about being single.

Again, who's gonna marry me

What are you doing to change your singleness????

What are you doing to change your singleness????

Yes Ive done the usual in searching for a mate but havent tried walking down the high street with a big notice saying, "Looking for a girl to marry, please marry me!!". Ok only teasing but seriously maybe I should offer all my CF blessings for a gal in CF to marry me

 

[peacechild4]

I am waiting on GOD for what HE has planned and as I am still going through divorce I am not really free yet to think about someone else but I pray about it alot.. I wonder in your case.. how GOD tells a man.. shes the one because the way I see it.. I believe this sort of thing has to come from the man.. ?? Sorry not much help to you..

I saw an article recently where a guy did, in fact, walk down the street with a sign just like you describe. I don't know how well it worked out for him, whether it got him any dates or not.

Advertising here for a date presents problems. First, I'm not sure it sits well with the site TOS. Secondly, there's the distance issue. This site is accessible world-wide. Supposing, just as an example, I set my cap for PC4. Big problem, I'm in Carol Stream, Illinois (a Western suburb of Chicago) and she's in Australia. Financing a trip to meet is out of the question for me, and I suspect dollars aren't all that common around her either. So, how do you propose we would meet? So, I fancy that for both of us we would do better to look in local sources rather than trying to use this international site to try to date. Just a stray thought or two.

 

[dayhiker]

I agree, if one is going to use the web to search for love, then a site that one can use to focus on local woman is where to go.

Yeah I too wonder how God tells a man, would so hate to think Im being told who my mate is and dont know it!
