That's the way I've felt for the past month and it's kinda hard to tell my brother (who is a preacher, ahh run) and sis-in-law when they want to hook me up with a girl in church who is very attractive and I can tell she likes me but I wanna say I've been hurt really bad these past 5 months and I no longer have much faith in God left in me and I don't feel like being hurt again by somebody who wants to swear that they love me more than anything and then stick a knife in my heart. Sorry for rambling on :)

Maybe you need to find a mental health professional and seek secular counseling. If you don't want to use your parents' insurance, try to find a low-cost mental health clinic. And go to a Planned Parenthood or some other clinic to get yourself tested for any and all STIs (HIV is not the only infection to which you are vulnerable). Doing so will give you great peace of mind. And don't ever have unprotected sex again. You should consider going to back to college and look for a school in a progressive town, if onlyl to get you away from an environment that seems very toxic for you. And check out "It Gets Better" on YouTube. I know my advice is largely secular, but you don't need religion to be happy.

I completely understand you and I'm going through something simmilar myself. People don't seem to understand that it takes time for thr heart to heal. It's even more painful when you find yourself doubting God. Yet no one understands your pain. They say pray and let them pray for you when all you really want is to be left alone to sort through on your own. And whne they try to do things they feel you need they don't realize that they are making things worse.
The only advice I can give is just start telling people that you really don't want to be bothered. It's not them and there is nothing they can do but give you time and space to heal the way you can.
PEACE!
If you feel the need to talk, go ahead and email me. I won't judge or cause more problems. I'll just listen.

dude, i lost my faith in EVERYTHING years ago. i don't believe in "god". i have been through SO much, i find it hard to believe that there is absolutely nothing and no one out there that can change my mind and make me believe in good ever again. i have peers, parents, family, and everyday life, plus 3 different diseases to thank for that. and that's quite fine to ramble on. sounds like you haven't lost faith if you look a church girl. maybe this is what you need. you can share this with her and she can either A) help you to understand things better and to be there for you if she truly likes you, or, B), not talk to you. what have you got to loose? trust me, after years of this hell Ive gone through, i can say that unless you have dealt with this for a very long time, you CAN make things right again,and be happy and feel like you have a purpose in life. Good luck and email me if you want to broaden your need for help.

Wondered around that way for years and in some aspects still searching for faith. It might be a long way off, but it does get better if you keep seaching for it in God, yourself, and others

I think it may be time for you to just spend some time alone for a while, gather your thoughts before moving on to another relationship. Im sure people will understand if you explain to them why you feel this way.

Yes. Everyone feels that way from time to time. It's best to put your faith in yourself and your ability to bounce back from disappointment and hurt. Just remember that everything you need is inside you.

Every"thing?" Life's most important lesson is that the most important things in life aren't things; they're friends . . . and there are millions of them out there. Dive in! For every one that drops you there are 100 waiting to rise back up with you.
