ive been a good and moral person all my life, but ive hurt some people along the way, specifically in relationships, and basically now i cant seem to find a stable relationship which before was so easy to find. Is it god that is "punishing" me for my previous endeavours and errors in life which i regret doing, and if so do i knee down and ask for forgiveness from him for making stupid mistakes with my love life? or do i keep my head up and tell myself that it is not time for love and that love will come sometime in the future(being optimistic). What do you think?(everyone is free to share what they feel)

God never ever is the cause of bad things in our lives.
you reap what you sow. end of story.
think on that for a while.

considering that we and God is conventional with what an anus is i imagine it really is not a sin, yet, stealing is so in basic terms ask God to forgive you for that....yet I wager you may want to ask for far more effective forgiveness than that, seeing as you're out at 3 am operating the streets. this isn't a severe answer.

Sounds like you really tried to be a good person. And we all make mistakes. I am sorry you got hurt in your relationships.
But God wouldn't punish you for anything. Look at the terrible things being done in the world. Are all those people being punished. Look at the terrible things that happened to Job and he wasn't being punished. Maybe you will find that someone special when you least expect it.

Wait on God to fill your life with the person that will be right for you.
God is not punishing you but maybe He wants to see if you will trust him enough to do the right thing this time around. If you have once asked forgiveness for something that you were feeling badly about then that was enough. Trust that God forgave you and quit beating yourself up for it. In God's time He will do what is in your best interest for your salvation just trust in Him and be patient.

Asking God for forgiveness isn't for God, just for you. It's a process starting with seeing your responsibility for something (not guilt, and you can't take what is already yours but have denied), then asking someone to see you as you are and asking them to not judge you (forgive) which requires that you not judge yourself. You can't ask for forgiveness from someone if you are judging them or yourself.
Free yourself. Live life for real. You owe no one to suffer. Why not be happy and grow?

God Doesn't punish us for mistakes we make unless they go against the bible and we know it. I believe you've just hit a rough patch in your love life and just keep your head up and hope for the best.

We make mistakes in order to learn and we will continue to make the same mistakes until we take the time to learn the lesson that is before us. You now have the ime to take to think about things and figure out what the lesson is.

god would never try to punish you. he might just be trying to make you focus on something different like someone that you see everyday and never notice. he also might be telling you to lay low so that you can put you total self towards god! you should ask for forgiveness but it can be in prayer, like if you pray every night then you can ask for forgiveness but god has already forgiven you

You do reap what you sow, forgiveness would not change that.
God's forgiveness is for sins against Him. You can't commune with the creater until you are clean of sin.

Sounds like you need to do some introspection on how you approach relationships. Do some studying, some contemplation, talk to friends.
If you want to pray, that might be nice, too.
