:rolleyes: I think I’m in this same boat…

I mean, I still have a BF, but he’s not what I expected and who knows if this will last.

I’m wondering where are all those faithful catholic men who put God 1st.

I think we just have to trust God, He knows what’s better for us, and just trying to push it results in… Well, my current relationship 🤷

I think we need to pray for God’s guidance and everything will clear up.
They’re out there. Trust me;)

Jesus please keep safe those who are dating. Please bring together sincere good Catholic single women and men to share happy, holy marriages.
 
Please add me to the prayer list. Thanks! I will keep everyone in my prayers too. I am 32 and it is nice to know I am not the only one that feels like they will never find “the one.”

Sincerely,

Maria1212

Thanks for adding me! I didn’t realize we were sharing our ages 🙂 I am 27. I appreciate the prayers and look forward to praying for you all - it’s not easy being single or dating/discerning these days!
 
Hi Harmony!

How lovely that you’re doing a novena for all of us … would you mind sharing it? Maybe some of us can join in, too! 👍

Hope all is going well with you! 🙂
Sure thing, it’s of course a famous novena, the St. Jude novena. He is recognized by the Church as the patron saint of hopeless cases and dire situations and he is of course a relative of Jesus which makes his intercession all the more powerful 🙂

Found it at this lovely site:

Whoops…just saw this thread! Not that I’m looking (!) but I happily admit that I am a female-**50…**I’m not in the same boat as others(what’s left of my life is not to get married) so you can take me off the list, but I’ll pray for you young 'uns!)

If you feel called to the married life in some way, then why not? These days it’s rather common for 50+ to be getting married(maybe second marriages and so on, but still they are marriages with a hope for a good future), so you are always welcome to be on the list 😃

God bless you for that, please add me to your little prayer list as well :). Oh and I am a 28 year old male.
 
Harmony, you’re 20. Your punctuation doesn’t look like it and the mere fact you’re talking about this particular subject also suggests you’re ahead of your age, or at least the typical shape of a person your age, but the fact stands, you’re 20 and that’s quite young. You don’t have to worry yet.

Now, I’m just 5 years older than you are and I do worry. I’m decided to die single rather than chaining myself to the wrong person with a half-hearted marriage for the sake of it, but the fact that prospects look bleak is quite saddening. I generally have poor luck with such things.
Are you kidding me? You’re 25 and things look bleak? I have a lot less going for me, and have 2 children…I’m trying online and there are a lot of good men out there…you have to put yourself out there if there is a desire for marriage…I believe that God places that desire there…pray for discernment and see what He can do…

I forgot to mention…I’m 37 & still consider myself young…you’re certainly nowhere near the point where you should feel so discouraged. Just keep praying…for yourself, for your future spouse, and that you’ll find each other at the right time.

I definitely feel that way. I have trouble finding guys I’m attracted to and share my values. It’s hard. Most of the guys I know are just way too immature to even consider dating. All they care about is keg parties and football. I’d rather be alone than settle, but I really want to find someone.
I have to highly recommend AveMariasingles.com
There’s also CatholicMatch.com, but I like AMS more…you may have to weed through a few, but most of the people seem to be genuine, practicing Catholics.

Don’t give up…God, St. Anthony, and St. Raphael can help you find him!

No problem, snowgarden; I’ve removed you. Thank you so much for your prayers … we can never have too many of those! 🙂
 
Jesus please find loving spouses for all on Morwenna’s list and for all who desire good marriages. Thank You, Jesus
