Social media is the pits when it comes to seeing what others have projected to us as their “happy lives.” All down our timelines we see pictures and videos of someone that has gotten engaged, having their bachelorette party, or getting married over the weekend. Let’s be frank, after the thousands IG or FB announcements of even the most unlikely celebrity pairing getting married. Your faith in getting married or even having a man starts to waver. Even the word of God says marriage may not be for everyone because of there people who don’t think about it. But for those of us that do the DO IT.

Sick of Being Single

You have now entered into the “sick of being single” stage where you’re one Cheetos chip away from calling up your ex to make a go of that failed relationship again. Or worst settling for the man you’re currently dating now who has no job. But patience is a virtue. Start with applying this eight tips to your Singles and Lonely life and watch how the new relationship you will make it to a good marriage starring you.

2. 1. You’re where you need to be
4. The tiredness of being single has landed you right where you need to be. Questioning yourself on your dating choices and asking yourself why haven’t you trust and tired God to be your matchmaker. Stop looking at your singleness as an incurable disease and more as a gift to figure out what you want out of your next relationship.
6. 2. It could be worse
8. Yes, you want to be in a loving relationship with “the one” at your age. But it could be worse. What is worst than being single you ask? Being in a dead-end marriage. Finding out the person you have been with has known all his life he was a woman in the wrong body. Ask Kris Jenner if she would have rather been single than raising children in a marriage that she felt blame for her spouse not living his truth.

3. You’re been Lonely before

1. Stop acting like a victim. This is not the first time you’re single. You can still be in a relationship and feel lonely. It up to you how you will entertain yourself during this process. Remember you don’t have to be alone, call a girlfriend up and go to dinner and catch up on life.
3. 4. Building Character 
5. Singles help to build the character of your value because strength isn’t built overnight. Reflect on who you are. What can you bring to your next relationship? Strong women are made through the reflection of themselves and their willingness to put in the work.

2. 5. Building Faith
4. Faith is complete trust or confidence in someone or something. Your singleness should be building confidence in you. Deal with past hurts from failed relationships so your next relationship your not blindly placing your trust in the hands of someone who you have not prayed for.

2. 6. Self-Love
4. Self-love is the ability to love yourself. If you’re hungry for another relationship because you want love. You may need to ask yourself if you LOVE you. How are you going to ask someone to love you how you want to be love if you can’t articulate this to yourself. People want to be loved so bad they will allow others to treat them badly instead of expressing what love means to them.
6. 7. Trusting God
8. 
9. How many times have you cried out to God about being single or even to a friend and they told you to ‘trust the process’ but you have ignored this great advice. It’s not what you wanted to hear.  Trusting God is not just crying out to him when you’re lonely. But it’s trusting that he will know the desires of your heart by answering your prayers. God is not a genie. But he can be your most powerful tool when it comes to trusting the next stage of your life will be handled with care.

8. Preparing to become his wife

1. “If you want something you never had then you have to be willing do something you have never done.”  If you know that you are someone wife then prepare for the wife you will become. Why do you have to wait to be in the relationship to start praying for your future husband? Start praying now for your children. Take action now. Prepare your body, mind, and soul to be around for your family by living a healthy lifestyle for yourself.
