I relate Jemma, I am a woman that just turned 40 a few days ago, been where you are but now I realize that if I disobey God just because He has not blessed me with a partner yet, I will be telling God that I do not trust Him with my life.
I am still trusting God for a husband and children of my own. Meantime I will keep walking in faithfulness. This is good, Joy. In addition dating has never been easy nor frequent 4 me. If the relationship was going nowhere fast, why rush to reveal my residence? I have also begun to believe that it is wise to date at least one or two other gentlemen within the same timeframe. NOT to get physically intimate with each of them, but to have options of personality, character, hobblies, looks, etc.
Would you buy the first house or car you saw? Would you pick the very first college you thought of? So why do we tend to do that with dating relationships?? I am 25 years old and is still a virgin. Why then would be allow His children to be. I just want to encourage you. Your body is worth more than settling, which is what you sound like you want to do. Your waiting has inspired me! Jemma and Travis, you just hit the nail on the head for me! Finally, I got to see others who feel exactly what I feel.
At least not without feeling guilty about it later.
Sometimes when people have something to prove, they really have something to hide. People often marry the wrong person, at the wrong time or for the wrong reasons. Jemma I realized early on after 5 boyfriends broke up with me within weeks of dating me that saving myself till marriage was a deal breaker for them. Obviously no one is taking it seriously. I am 22 and still a virgin but I have stopped trying. Now I just want my first time to be with someone I am comfortable and in love with.
I am sorry things have been rough for you.
Dating, Sex Before Marriage, And The Christian Relationship Myth – Girl Got Faith
I just got married two weeks ago. Our time of intimacy together was worth the wait. Stay strong and be encouraged. Dear JannJann; do not despair. Many claim to follow Christ but do not obey His Word. It matters not what they say. What matters is remaining obedient to Christ. Devote yourself to knowing and obeying Christ. When I was 22 I wanted to marry soon, but marriage and sex was for many years an idol for me.

I am now 33, and still pray for a godly marriage, but my hands are open now. I want to walk in obedience to Christ so that I will be a wise virgin preparing for my bridegroom, Jesus Christ. Though many have fallen and will fall away—please hold to Christ and not be one of them.
Ask God for older women of strong faith to disciple you and encourage you along the way. The Church is meant to help each other to follow Christ more obediently. If your peers are telling you to give in, consider Rehoboam, 4th king of Israel son of Solomon. He received advice from his elders and the peers he grew up with. The elders gave him good advice, but his peers did not. He followed the advice of his peer advisors, which resulted in 10 of the tribes rebelling from him. Surround yourself with people who actually consider the LORD worthy of our obedience.
I am also unmarried and Travis-thank you for the courage in the questions you have asked. One of the largest problems-that I feel strongly about-is the dominance of a church culture that spends so much time talking about marriage and children, and spends little-if any-time on singles. That being said-we have to come to grips with another aspect of who we are. The sheep of HIS pasture. We are the clay, He is the Potter.
I know He loves us. Start figuring out, Christ-one, what it is He wants you to do. What your marching orders are.
Why Unmarried Christians Are Having Sex
Go do it to the best of your ability. Love Him with your whole heart. Laser focus on His call. Let the rest of it go. No, really-let it go. Christ said not everyone is called to marriage, he did not say not everyone who WANTS marriage will get it.
