Is singleness a gift or a choice?

[dhorss14344]

For me it's a choice some because of bad experiences they choice to be single to avoid the hurt they suffer after a happy relationship they had before... But some says don't close the door because someday somebody will open it and do not afraid to let him in because life is full of mystery all we need is to trust what God has plan to our life just be ourselves.

Being single is a matter of choice but also it is a gift that the Lord had given to individual. It is of your choice that you want for your self. You can never be single unless you want to. There are many singles out there and others are nun so it is their gift to be that and at the same time it is there choice to enter that kind of calling..

It totally depends on both the person and the situation.I think we would all love to be in a secure relationship with someone we could trust and love.However too many people get trapped in poor relationships with superficial people that have no problem manipulating every circumstance for their own benefit even at the expense of the one that they are supposedly sworn to hold and love.
One bad marriage taught me that there are worse things than being alone.

This is hard. For me, when you want to be single, then I believe it is a choice. But if you want to have a partner in life, then later on did not happen to have husband or wife, then i believe that is what the Lord has given you being single. Or maybe until now we single are still single because the right time has not yet come. That is why there is a saying, "It is best to wait, and knowing that you are in front seat". it means that, when you get married early but it was not the best or you have regret, then that was not the best for you. While you wait and see what the Lord has lead you, then that is the best and that is front seat.

At first its hard for me its so painful to be alone carrying a child in your tummy many struggles but in the long run i realize having my parents who support me all the time is nice to be single. Just waiting for the right time but if its a gift of being single i will be thankful because im blessed with a daughter to be with me.

Yes its a choice that everyone has made and being single has a purpose...i have read in a book by john maxwell. If i clearly remember it, he state that being single is a gift, why???because you are givin a purpose to serve.,help,protect and love others..it is a gift that you can be a blessings to others, but on the other hand some single never expect to be single some never wanted to be single but there fate has to be it..so to some it up,being single is a gift but to others its a choice..we never know our future..only God knows.

Yes, just think positive. Actually, we learn from our past. Sometimes it is hard to accept it because the world cannot expect that. But just be thankful for everything.

Yeah Im so thankful with Jesus Christ is with me all the time. I surrender to him all, when im down i talk to him thats the only thing can make my feeling goes well. After that i talk to my mom all the worries i had. Then i can feel out of pain.

[crisipicada]

It is good to talk to mother because they knows best and they understand our feelings. Like my mother, she is always giving me advise and giving me positive insights. When you think you have doubts, always talk to your mom, they are willing to listen.

[angel]

Yes thats right... you must close to your parents because they know whats the best for you when asking and regarding some decision you make. Just ask little advice or opinion with them a little help will do. Sometimes i think why this younger generations like to keeping secret with their parents they want to share it with friends, i dont want to put down there friends but hey you must say it to your parents first.
