He Said - She Said Christian Dating Advice EDITOR'S NOTE: is a biweekly advice column for singles featuring a question from a Crosswalk. If you've got a question about anything related to singleness or living the single life, please submit it to hesaid-shesaid crosswalk. QUESTION: I am 26 and have never dated. As of yesterday, all of my closest friends are now engaged or married. I really am happy for them, but I also feel like my heart is breaking. They've all moved on almost like they have been promoted to married life and having babies, and I feel very much left behind. I have nobody left to go on vacation with or invite as my plus one. How am I supposed to remain happy for them like this? How am I supposed to trust God when I truly feel overlooked? I know, I am probably selfish for thinking of my own feelings over theirs, but it just keeps on cropping up. HE SAID: What you are currently going through is a journey most every single person is or has been on. I eventually chose the latter. Although we may be walking the same path for a period of time, they will probably separate because God is doing a specific work in each of us distinct from one another. You may be nearing that crossroad. My married friends have shared in jest they live through me vicariously, by the opportunities I have as a single, while at the same time I would trade aspects of my life for theirs. Through it all though, I have found peace and gratification in the experiences and new friends God has allowed me to have on my journey. Seek to enjoy this new season. SHE SAID: First of all, your feelings are very, very normal. Just like leaving high school or college and having your friends scatter, changes in life are hard. The longer you are single, the harder it will be to handle your friends getting married and having kids. But there are some ways to make the process easier. Pray and ask God for help. Pray for your friends that have gotten married or getting married, thanking God for their union. Pray for their relationship to be focused on God. Pray and ask God for your part in their future life together. Being a friendship aunt is not always a bad deal. Also, ask God to help you with your own heart in regards to not having a special someone. Don't assume everyone who is getting married is going to live this fantasy life with picket fences. You need to be prepared and ready to be used by the Lord. It is better to wait for your RIGHT one then to marry to just be married. Because I do want God's choice, I am willing to wait. I mean, can't I celebrate being single... The point here is that I have to keep my spirits up. I can't allow what God is doing in other people's lives appear to be more valuable then what he is doing in my life. I love the things I have been able to do and the places I have gone because I am single. I love being an aunt to my friends' kids as well as my own biological nephews and nieces. Remember what Jesus says in. You may feel left behind. Friends that are in the same or similar life-stage as you. Now, sure, it may appear as a revolving door, as soon as you make a friend they get married. But, I look at it differently. I can choose to stay their friend, or I say, it was great to be their friend for this season. Who does God have next for my life? I have learned to value the seasons of life. I stopped watching Hallmark movies that were unrealistic. I even stopped being in my friends' weddings for a period of time, and only attended. And I kept chocolate closeby. But mostly I keep Jesus the closest. I mean, if anyone knew about being single and what it felt like, it was him. I wonder if he needed a toaster? I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do all this through him who gives me strength.
