Everyone says "God loves you." But every relationship I have or have had has failed, so do I have a failed relationship with GOD too? How do I know I'm loved by GOD?

Every relationship you have had has been with people. God is not like people. He will never let you down, never forsake you.
You are loved by God because while you were yet a sinner, Jesus died for you.
You are loved by God because He says it- and He is not a liar.

Well, for me, it is not that God loves you... it is a matter of God is Love and we all are God evolving into a Pure non-physical Love and a Pure physical Love in the same sphere... you see you are Love. You cannot fail with God. If you have gained a teeny weeny bit of knowledge of what not to do or to do the next time then they were not failed relationships... they were but teachers.

Apples and Oranges.
Relationships fail for one of three reasons: a lack of trust, A lack of honesty, or a lack of love, but; relationships exist between two or more individuals and each individual is responsible for putting in their part or the love, trust and honesty.
You want to know if you lost your relationship with God. That is probably impossible to do. God is Lovein its purest form. God is Knowledge which honesty in its purest form. God is existence which is trust in its purest form. So God will never pull out of this relationship. The only thing thatmay happen is that you may close yourself off to God. Has that happened? If not your relationship is in tact just not exactly what you may want it to be.
Think on it.

It is hard to believe in love when you have not felt it. But it is there. God is a relationship that cannot stop. As Catholic we call God a Trinity because His Love is so great that He exists in relationship always. And God wishes that for you. Just like you know that there is a star up in the sky although you cannot touch it, you are told it is a star and what it is made of. Sometimes that knowledge and experience takes years but it does not mean it is not real.

It is simple, you have to establish a dialogue and a relationship. That is what everyone else does, and it works.
If you are you, you do not look like a random quirk of nature.
If you are not a random quirk of nature, then can you consider you might be a spiritual being?
Now to your question. Once you establish a spiritual relationship with God, you will know, to the bottom of your soul, that He loves you. If you do not do this, then you will never know it.

1 Corinthians 8:2-4
But the man who loves God is known by God.
God loves you so much and if you read the bible you will know that. Because you past relationships have failed, doesnt mean you have a failed relationship with God. Everything will work out in God's plan, and maybe your relationships are failing because God is going to make the right person come in your life. If you have doubts about your relationship with God, then you should work on making your relationship with him better. pray to him everyday, as many times as possible. just talk to him - he is your father and will always be there for you. you can talk to hiim like he is sitting next to you, or just pray, or think thoughts, he knows everything and knows your thoughts at all time. he will never abandon ne1, humans are always the ones that turn their backs on him. if you turn your back on him, he will try to find you though. he will try to find you because he loves you so much. also, i dont know if you have heard of this poem, but it helps ne1 who is feeling down or feels that god has left them, which he hasnt. it is called footprints in the sand - this is how it goes
One night a man had a dream. He dreamed
he was walking along the beach with the LORD.
Across the sky flashed scenes from his life.
For each scene he noticed two sets of
footprints in the sand: one belonging
to him, and the other to the LORD.
When the last scene of his life flashed before him,
he looked back at the footprints in the sand.
He noticed that many times along the path of
his life there was only one set of footprints.
He also noticed that it happened at the very
lowest and saddest times in his life.
This really bothered him and he
questioned the LORD about it:
"LORD, you said that once I decided to follow
you, you'd walk with me all the way.
But I have noticed that during the most
troublesome times in my life,
there is only one set of footprints.
I don't understand why when
I needed you most you would leave me."
The LORD replied:
"My son, my precious child,
I love you and I would never leave you.
During your times of trial and suffering,
when you see only one set of footprints,
it was then that I carried you."
really and truly, God loves you and if you have ne ?s about ne thing, plees feel fre to contact me or ask another ?, ill try to find it and answer it
god bless

A relationship with God requires communication. He is communicating to you everyday. Are you listening. Are you talking to Him. In order to know Him you must spend time with Him just like any other relationship you have.
Maybe all your other relationships have failed because God is showing you NEED HIM. Once you realize and accept His love your life will flourish.
Love, In Jesus' name

The failed relationships may be just a sign that you are picking wrong, and that you have been sleeping with them before knowing them.
Take the time to pick the right one, get to know him first, before dropping your pantaloons for him. At least two years, and only after marriage. If he says he will marry you if you sleep with him, tell him sure, as long as he wears the engage ring on his member while having sex.

The question is how do THEY know God loves you? When somebody says that "God loves you," it's not really about you, it's about them. Love has many definitions. Love yourself and work your way outwards from there. Project enough love and birds will start landing on your hand. It's a universal quality. Call it God if you like.

Wait till u see what He has done for u. He has done so many things ofr u that u don;t even know. BUt ur relationship wuith God only fails if u choose to go on the devil's die. And if u see that every relationship ur in is broken that is an obvious sign from God that He wants u to wait and He will choose u the person for u. I gave my choice to God. He knews evey one and their heart what they are thinking and everything, so He would know who's perfect for u.
