Broken Hearted…

Sorry to hear your “love life” is either non-existent or disappointing, to say the least, frustrating. It’s like trying to find a needle in a haystack! 😦

On another note, I’ve talked to, not sure how many available Catholic guys, on the forum, and off, who say they ARE practicing Catholics and say something similar about today’s women, Catholic and not.

They have many of the SAME complaints. They’ve told me that if they prefer to wait for marriage, the women conclude that either the man doesn’t love them or that they’re gay!
Such is life in this day and age. They are JUST as frustrated as you are, I think.

I can tell you that, though these men are VERY scarce, they DO exist, the same as good, Catholic women are in short supply and EXIST.

Too bad ya’ all couldn’t find each other.

Have you tried looking in Catholic single or church events?

It’s rough, though.

I think there is even a group, on the forum, for people praying for their future spouses. That might be a good place to start.

Good luck, and God bless you! 👍

Thank you so much! Yes there’s an adult youth group that I’ve considered joining its just not that close to where I live so getting there might be a challenge sometimes…but yes it’s very frustrating…thank you for your words of encouragement and advice!

Prayer to Find a Good Husband

O Jesus, lover of the young, the dearest Friend I have, in all confidence I open my heart to You to beg Your light and assistance in the important task of planning my future. Give me the light of Your grace, that I may decide wisely concerning the person who is to be my partner through life. Dearest Jesus, send me such a one whom in Your divine wisdom You judge best suited to be united with me in marriage. May his character reflect some of the traits of Your own Sacred Heart. May he be upright, loyal, pure, sincere and noble, so that with united efforts and with pure and unselfish love we both may strive to perfect ourselves in soul and body, as well as the children it may please You to entrust to our care. Bless our friendship before marriage, that sin may have no part in it. May our mutual love bind us so closely, that our future home may ever be most like Your own at Nazareth.

O Mary Immaculate, sweet Mother of the young, to your special care I entrust the decision I am to make as to my future husband. You are my guiding Star! Direct me to the person with whom I can best cooperate in doing God’s Holy Will, with whom I can live in peace, love and harmony in this life, and attain to eternal joys in the next.
Amen.

Our Father who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
Amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.

Glory Be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end.
Amen. :signofcross:

Remember, O most loving Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession and was left forsaken. Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To you I come, before you I stand, a sorrowful sinner. Despise not my words, O Mother of the Word, but in your mercy, hear and answer me.
Amen

Lord, you arranged for man and woman to be together. Lead this soul with holy angels toward the vocation to which she accurately discerns. Send holy angels arrange accordingly, that sin always be avoided and that holiness prevail in all Patientlywaitin’s relationships. Mend her heart with the love of Our Lady, especially for any injustices she incurs for the sake of the faith. Dissipate the darkened clouds that loom over this fallen world, that a foretaste of heaven’s light reach the soul of this child of yours. Lead her always with many graces for faith, hope, love, and joy. Have mercy, Lord. Our Lady, angels, and saints, pray with us. Amen.

O Raphael, lead us towards those we are waiting for, those who are waiting for us! Raphael, Angel of Happy Meetings, lead us by the hand towards those we are looking for! May all our movements, all their movements, be guided by your Light and transfigured by your Joy.

Angel Guide of Tobias, lay the request we now address to you at the feet of Him on whose unveiled Face you are privileged to gaze. Lonely and tired, crushed by the separations and sorrows of earth, we feel the need of calling to you and of pleading for the protection of your wings, so that we may not be as strangers in the Province of Joy, all ignorant of the concerns of our country.

Remember the weak, you who are strong–you whose home lies beyond the region of thunder, in a land that is always peaceful, always serene, and bright with the resplendent glory of God. Amen.

Thank you so much for taking time out of your day to pray for me! I truly appreciate! It made my day to see all these prayers!
 
My friend, you are so young! I am in my late twenties and I remember being your age…time flies. I know you may be anxious to meet “the one” but remember there is so much more to life, try to enjoy the ride. I was in your shoes, I completely empathize. I dated and had some good experiences, and of course some bad ones. Going through those experiences made me appreciate the man I am with today even more! He was worth the wait. Continue to attend church and grow within yourself…it’ll happen:D

Haha yes I know I’m not “old enough” to be getting all stressed about it, but I for some reason…I feel as if its just looming over my head and is always in the back of my mind no matter what I do…trying my best to appreciate all the wonderful things life has to offer, I really am…I will continue to pray and ask for guidance…thank you for sharing your story and sending prayers my way!
