Are there groups where you’re located? If not, Old Order Mennonites may be present. They’re more plentiful primarily due to their missionary work.
I’ve never owned a car. It wasn’t necessary. I walk everywhere. Beyond the monthly trip for bulk purchases I’m never in them. And yes it seems you’re going plain!
It’s too ornate and requires a corset. They’re not meant to stand out or draw attention to their silhouette. The lone option that comes to mind is the prairie look or pioneer. Something along these lines.

I think there's few groups but it's more of an indulgence for me to embark on it. I have people under my care who goes wherever I go and would very likely not want such lifestyle!
Those dresses look nicer without the head covering.
One night a thought came to my head, why are you asking God to help you? You ask His help all of this years and nothing happend. That night changed my life. I stopped praying. I stopped hope. I stopped waiting for a miracle. God doesn't care for me. He wants to see me in pain, loneliness and shame. I don't believe in Him anymore. I don't want to. I don't find a reason to do it. I stop calling my friends and share my thoughts. Many of them didnt care if I have days to call. They have families. They hung out with other families. I am nothing to their eyes. I am single. I don't understand them because I am single.
This is my life and I can't change it. No one cares, no one will ever love me. I am getting used to this new reality in my life and I am crying less now. Hugging my new revelation gives me more comford. But inside me I became dead cold. I don't feel anything. I see myself becoming cruel and bitter. You gonna ask me why I write all these? Because I haven't heard my voice for a long time. I have no one to listen to me. Maybe someone here will do and understand how really feel. Sorry for any mistakes in english language.
From testimonials from other Christian friends, one in particular that I dated, when she moved here...she said the small town mentality in general was also in the church she was in. She didn't like the fact they got up her family's business and such. Some find small town churches too intrusive and too involved with members outside of church. GossipyWhat I like most about small town are the people and the place. Love the great outdoors, the mountains, forests, thus, small town suits me better.

Is there a particular girl you're after and they've rejected you?It has not been a good past couple of days. I am sad. I wish girls weren't so hardI feel like a loser. I lose w/ girls so what else would I be?
For me there are three girls from Church (two that talked to me and one I am terrified to even approach her) but I am terrified to even ask for a coffee date as they most likely will say no because there is a great chance they have a boyfriend.Is there a particular girl you're after and they've rejected you?
No, I don't really know any singles. Girls I know are married or have boyfriendsIs there a particular girl you're after and they've rejected you?
They always do. It's so depressing.For me there are three girls from Church (two that talked to me and one I am terrified to even approach her) but I am terrified to even ask for a coffee date as they most likely will say no because there is a great chance they have a boyfriend.
I understand your view point. When I had thought about doing online dating a while back, I was worried that guys wouldn't date me because I had quit attending church. When I stopped going to church, I had been good about watching Charles Stanley every Sunday as a replacement, but something happened and I stopped. But I've been making an effort to watch, listen, or read something on his app every Sunday now.I feel terrible. I don't go to church consistent enough. How will God think I'm ready to date if I can't even attend church more than once a month?
It's not that easy.Oh, some more advice (haha): talk to every woman in a friendly and politely flirty way to get some practice. Figure out how to make girls laugh.
and make friends with women! By that, I mean be friendly. Don't make her your girlfriend-from-a-far. Don't pine after a woman who doesn't want you. But let them figure out who you are, and use that time to figure out who they are. Don't worry about being friendzoned. However, it's hard to build attraction immediately beyond just cute/not cute. (which is why I hate OLD). Give it a little bit of time. Even if a woman your age has a boyfriend, stay friends with her and let her know you're looking and see if she knows any other women.
Anyways, sorry if you know all this all ready. Just trying to help you out I probably need this for myself too because my crush turned me down yesterday so I'm licking my wounds lol
For me it's not a lonely feeling. I rarely get lonely. It's an emptiness feeling.
