I've always felt somewhat alone throughout most of my life. I have a large extended family but still feel very alone. My father was never in the picture then both of my grandparents on my mom's side passed. A few years ago my mom passed and I'm an only child. I'm not very close to most of my extended family outside of aunts/uncles and cousins. But I feel very lonely all the time. I'm 26 and most of my friends are getting married and having kids and I'm still single. I can't help but feel like God wants me to be alone.
I can't really understand why. A lot of the people I know have both of their parents in their lives and they've gotten married and are starting to have children and seem to have such an amazing support system. Even people I know who aren't Christians seem to be happier than I am and God has blessed them with spouses/kids/parents/grandparents. I can't help but question why God wouldn't have allowed me to at least have my mother in my life if no one else. I know people always say "God is always there and He's everything we need" etc and I understand that but at the same time He obviously understood our human desire and need for human interaction and companionship. It scares me to think that this might actually be the way my life goes. I can't help but question if I've done something wrong. It seems so unfair. I try to hold in together and continue to walk in faith but it's a heavy burden and lonely existence.
Have you ever felt like God wants you to be alone? I know it's not Christian like but I sometimes question whether God really wants me to be happy. I've prayed about it for years but still feel this way. I'm just tired of feeling this way.
