After giving birth to my second, from another man, making a single mother again and having been unemployed now for the past 5 months. I have been self medicating with food and TV. Yes! I am a believer, who believes that Jesus Christ died for me, attend church, Bible study every Tuesday and even started serving again at church lately.

Having been saved for 11years now, I can only recall one incidence when a guy at church seemed to show interest in me. This was back in 2008, when I just got saved so guys where definitely not on my agenda and I had been in so many relationships prior finding Jesus that I believed that I had to first purge my body and spirit from all the sexual relations I had before I became holy. Sadly, I think I then discovered other parts of me that I could rely on like I am strong, ambitious and only worthy of being with someone great and most of the man in the churchs I attended were either weak in my eyes or even worse married.

As a result, I started looking at me for anything I could be doing wrong for not meeting and finding this powerful man. I concluded by saying, because I have a child no one will love me. Now after years of experiences I have two, so I have been feeling sooooo unlovable however strangely I do desire to meet someone (a believer) and get married.

I guess I can begin by accepting myself with the extra weight, slowly begin to take of myself (I have been struggling to because being unemployed can be depressing) and also believe I too am worthy of being loved and are lovable.

Sorry for the long response.

And also invites to go out but with our other sisters 8n Christ. But there is one thing , that is he’s 3 years younger than me.
