If I am meant to be single forever, God, please remove all my desire to be loved

I am 21 years old and still single. I have been in some relationships in the past, but every one of my partners cheated on me, and the one good one I had dumped me because I didn’t want to have sex with him. I am the old maid of my family and I receive so much pressure to find someone. I feel alone and lost and embarrassed. I am surrounded by people in long term relationships, yet I can’t find my person. I’m starting to think I’m going to die alone with no legacy or family. I plead that if it’s not meant for me, that God removes all of my wants and desire to be loved. My heart is closed but my head won’t shut it off for some reason. Please, God, the want is too overwhelming. If I’m truly supposed to die alone, then why do I feel like this? It hurts so badly all I want to do is cry

Heavenly Father, I lift up this precious heart to You, the one who feels alone, lost, and overwhelmed by the longing to be loved. Lord, You see their pain, their tears, and the weight of their desires. Father, surround them with Your peace and comfort. Remind them of their worth and beauty in Your eyes, and that their life has purpose and meaning regardless of relationship status.

If it is Your will, Lord, bring into their life a partner who will honor, respect, and cherish them. But if not, please ease their heart and quiet their longing. Remove the ache and fill them instead with Your love, joy, and confidence in Your plan. Let them feel Your nearness and hope in this season, knowing they are never truly alone because You are with them In Jesus’ name, Amen.
