I'm a 40 year old man. I was married for 7 years and together with ex wife for 11 years. She cheated on me while I was unemployed because I lost my business and was losing our house. This was 2 years ago. I got depressed pretty deep. I've had 2 relationships that didn't work out. I was going to school for a course in ac heating and refrigeration and graduated last week. During this time I got on an online dating site and met someone n somehow we fell in love. I went to New Jersey from Miami to meet her. I thought we hit it off. I had told her I was going to stay there with her and four days later, I decided to return to Miami as I didn't find work and saw more opportunity in my field here in Miami as it turns out. I had left my job to move there and now I had to find work in Miami again and I got a great job the day after I got to Miami. I think she sees me as unstable instead of full of faith. She's catholic but not well schooled on faith. She told me she's not ready for a commitment but feels she might be making a mistake. It hurts me real bad and now I find myself hurting all over again and asking myself.. WHY AM I LONGING FOR A WIFE TO LOVE AND LOVE ME BACK?? WHY AM I FEELING EMPTY??? ISNT GOD ENOUGH???? DO I NOT LOVE MYSELF ENOUGH????? Your prayers and advice are very welcome and needed!! I'm very depressed!!

Btw it was last Sunday that I got to NJ and came back this past Wednesday night.
I had very little money and was sleeping in my car. I can see how she thinks I'm nuts. Her sister made me feel like a total loser and openly told her i was unfit.

Lord, send him any help he needs and help heal his heart from all the hurt he has gone through. Be there for him and show him you are listening, that you will be there every step of the way. Send him your love, peace, comfort and strength. I pray for this, in Jesus name, Amen.

Thanks Andy
It's just that I don't have kids and always wanted a family. But I do get what you're saying.

Praying for my brother Dio. Praying that he can find peace and happiness with YOU Father God first. That he can cast all his anxieties on You because You love him (1Peter 5:6-7).
Dio, I think it's important that you focus on YOU for some time and your relationship with God so that you can fully heal from your marriage. You should look into joining a Divorce Care Christian based recovery group that probably meets in different churches in your area. A lot of people try to rush into new relationships after divorce before they are healthy and healed from their marriage failing. You need to be happy as who you are first and don't look at getting into a new relationship as the source of your happiness. Once you are fully healed from your divorce and happy with yourself as an individual you will be in a much better place to meet someone who is also healthy. Just my humble opinion based on what I learned in my time at Divorce Care. Good luck Brother.
PS is Dio a RONNIE James reference? If so did you ever hear the Christian album he did with Kerry Livgren from Kansas?

Father, fill is cup lord, in the name of Jesus!
