its not always easy to do, one thing you have to keep your self pure till marrige. this is one thing the Bible talks about a lot (look in titus) another thing is to be a example to others, some times witnessiing will not do a bit of good unless others can see a change in your life. read your Bible, learn it so you can know what you are talking about when some one asks you some thing. love others, show that you love others any way you can. obey and respect your boss, the Bible says to obey those who have the rule over you. pray, this is one thing that most (even me at times) people forget to do, but not praying and waiting on the lords time is a lot worse than making a rash choice. \n\nidont want to go on and on, so if you want to email me go ahead, i am 16 and trying as hard as i can to live for God. and if i can answer any ?s you have, just ask.

By working hard and keeping yourself so busy that you don't have time or room to feel the loneliness.  I'm married to a Marine.  He is currently gone for his third six- to eight-month deployment in three years.  By the time he comes home half our marriage will have been spent apart.  I guess you can say I live without the one I love.  Keep yourself surrounded by other people you know care about you, like your family, and you will realize that even without "the one you love", you are still loved.

No...you can't live the single bachelor life forever...I can't believe these women have allowed you to do it this long. you have to chose.\nSeeings as how this seems to be such a chore and hard decision for you...if I was one of them I would make the choice very easy on you and not keep myself as an option for you.

Give it time. Get out and get back into things. It does take awhile, but can be done. I stayed single for over 2 years before I was ready to get back out there. Don't give up hope. When i thought i would never meet anyone again..I did. Your whole attitude will change. Make some new friends and try things that you never have. You will be able to show these new things to the kids too.

Don't be with someone because your friends are married, or your relatives are married or the what not.  Be with someone because you LOVE them and want to be with them.  If you don't feel that way about a person, you're better off not being with them so that they don't get hurt in the long term.  \n\nAs a chronically single person, I can tell you that there is nothing wrong with not being with someone.  I've had probably what seems, at least to me, the worst luck in the universe, and if it isn't, then I'd hate to meet the person who has had worse.  I am very unsure that I will find my soulmate some days.  \n\nI'd like to tell you that you're just looking in the wrong place or that some day you'll just get completely and totally swept off your feed.  I wish that for you, as I wish that for me, but nothing is certain in this world.  \n\nIt is your life.  You should do what you think makes you happy.  If you want to take a break from dating, do it.  There's nothing wrong with showing up alone to places or just being happy with your life as it is.  There's no shame in realizing that a relationship with a guy ain't gonna make you happy in the long term.  \n\nBecause, if you do find your true love, he will give you that spark.  \n\nBest of luck and best of wishes.

YOU don't. You start with you. Like yourself, in fact love yourself. No one will see any value in you if you can't see it in yourself. Since you are young and have your whole life ahead of you I will tell you a secret. You will have many loves, and they all will be special. To focus on a single individual at this time in your life will let much of life slip by. You want to get as much out of life as you can, every day. So go out there and make all the friends you can; soon enough love will come around.

1. Breathe. Yes! It's that simple. Breathe deeply, but don't hyperventilate. Inhale as though you were sniffing a delightful scent. Then stre-e-e-tch your arms high over your head as you slowly and completely exhale.\n\n2. Set boundaries. Just like the stressed-out mom who sat in the playpen to keep away from the children, you can erect some barriers. Decide what you will do — and when. Better still, decide what you won't do and dare to say "no." Try to avoid anything, and anyone, who wastes your time.\n\n3. Clarify your goals. Decide exactly what needs to be done, and plan a smart way of accomplishing each task. Oh, and give yourself a pat on the back every time you achieve even one of your goals, no matter how small.\n\n4. Put yourself first. That's right! If you aren't functioning at your peak, your work and your relationships will suffer. Find time for yourself, and try to do at least one relaxing thing each day: Take a bubble bath, or read a chapter of a favourite book.\n\n5. Give yourself a break. It's okay to goof off, cancel a lunch date, or miss a deadline now and then. In six months or 10 years, who will remember?\n\n6. Get spiritual. Get in touch with your spiritual values, and align your plans and activities with them. For instance, read an inspiring book, then figure out how to incorporate what you learned into your day-to-day life.\n\n7. Take five. Right now stop what you are doing to cherish the moment. Savour whatever you're drinking or eating. Or go outside and smell the air, the flowers and the trees. Feel the wind, sunshine or rain on your face. Listen for tiny sounds. Take a moment every day to marvel at the wonders all around you.

Take time for your self, in every relationship we are in we seem to lose a piece of ourselves, we need to gain that back before we have anything to offer in a new relation, find out who you are, grow from the experience. Some times I think people are afraid to be alone with them selves for awhile, it's ok to be single. I think I got your question right if not good advice any way I think.
