It is true we have to trust God in these circumstances. It's just so frustrating. More so I think because of societal pressure. Well you can check out my blog at www.tigrisnutritionblog.com if you like.

So, I can't...Sarah, I am the same exact way!!! So, I can't provide you with any advice. I am 34 going to be 35 this year and still single. I go to single's events, have done the online dating thing and figured it wasn't for me. I have been told I am very attractive and nice all my life yet I cannot seem to find someone special. Men rarely approach me!! People in my church community make me feel even more horrible about my situation by making comments like, "you're too picky" giving me pity-faces and then pressuring me to go out with middle aged overweight unattractive men with no education who don't even speak english (I am serious). At least they have a job.... Well, this in turn makes me feel even worse!! I decided I had to find a different church community after that. I blame this behaviour on extended relatives who express their desperation to see me coupled off. I do have an education and am always looking to further my career and I am not going to apologize for that. I also do make time to meet people, but nothing! Some people think it's because I strictly want someone from the community but that isn't the case! Although I would prefer someone from our community. I am just tired of it all!!

I can remember crying about it on my mom's shoulder when I was in high school. When I was in 7th grade the guy I liked came over to say hi to me and you know what I did? The splits. Yes, I dropped into the splits. As if that was dweebish enough, I was wearing roller skates. Awkward much? I'm sure he thought there was something seriously wrong with me. I never outgrew it. I'm convinced the only way I landed Matt was because our parents set us up, and it was long distance. There wasn't the awkward problem with the first 4 months of our relationship because it happened over the phone. I know this probably doesn't help you out much, but at least maybe it will make you laugh. Love you!Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06459566936750786139noreply@blogger.com
