I am feeling a loss of hope in your question? I encourage you to first find a relationship in God and Jesus! The enemy loves to deceive us into wallowing in self-pity, fretting,feeling sorry for ourselves, or having a chip on our shoulders. If you continue to dwell on those past disappointments and lost hope, you will be blocking God's blessings in your life! Know God loves you and his grace is sufficient for every need. If you believe in him than he will not let you down! "God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that in all things in all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work." (2 Cor. 9:8) The bible says trusting in God will bring you hope, joy and peace.Did you ever hear the expression: Smile God loves you? It's true you must know you are valued! Do you know? God so loved the world that he gave is one and only Son Jesus, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life! (John 3:16) It's True, God loves you and values you that much! Maybe God just wants you to have a little faith in him and wants you to share things with him first!? Know the bible says: Seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. (Matt.6:33) What things given to you, you ask? Maybe it is some friends you seek or it might be that soul mate your looking for!? What ever it is you seek it, it will be given to you! Going back to that soul mate thing, finding a man is more than looking pretty and more than a smile! It's True! Like the bible says: * “Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as braided hair and the wearing of gold jewelry and fine clothes. Instead, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet Spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight.” (1 Peter 3:3-4) The question should be HOW ARE YOU GOING TO FIND THE RIGHT MAN AND WHAT QUALITY'S SHOULD THE RIGHT MAN HAVE? I encourage you to seek out a church if your not going to one already? One where Jesus is preached, I know a lot of churches of Christ now days have single groups and bible studies. This is a great place to find a man with values because he is going to value Jesus first! If not just to find a possible man or to make friends in general and to learn the word of God (the Bible) to start developing your relationship with God! The right man should 1. Love you. 2. Honor you. 3. Cherish's you. 4. Trust you. and 5. Communicate with you! These can be explained in my five biblical principles for finding your soul mate: Ask Yourself:
1. Does he love you for who you are (inside first than out)? The Bible says: *“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth.” 1 Corinthians 13:4-6
2. Does he honor you? Will he do things just to make you happy? Will he try some of the things you are interested in or maybe shares some of the same interests and hobbies? The Bible says:
* “Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honor one another above yourselves.” Romans 12:10
3. Cherishes your body, mind and soul? Doesn't go to far on these things until your ready? The Bible says: * “Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as braided hair and the wearing of gold jewelry and fine clothes. Instead, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet Spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight.” 1 Peter 3:3-4
4. You trust him to the fullest? He is your best friend and you are his? The Bible Says: * “ Love always protects, always trusts, always hopes always perseveres.” 1 Corinthians 13:7
5. You communicate well? He understands you like he could be your twin? The Bible says: * “ Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful, that it may benefit those who listen.” Ephesians 4:29
To Sum it up: Stick to 1. Love 2. Honor 3. Cherish 4. Trust 5. Communication and I promise if your relationship is based on these things you will know what its like to find true love! And Yes! I have used my principles myself and I am convinced I have found my soul mate! But to find her I also used these same principles to weed out my soul mate from the relationships that just didn't work. In addition, letting God and Jesus Christ lead your heart, mind, body and soul also aid in the weeding process.God Bless! I would also like to recommend some books to you for finding value in your self to having hope and knowing the purpose God has for you in your life. 1. Joel Osteen: Your Best Life Now: 7 steps to living at your full potential. 2. Rick Warren: The Purpose Driven Life.

The reason is life, and what it may hold on a daily basis. There are lots of people to share your life with just by being yourself. A friendly smile and "Hello" makes a big difference to people you meet regularly on the street when walking. They will respond.
A smile is contagious. Try it , it works.
You don't have to deck yourself out, just look neat and tidy. If you feel good about the way you present yourself, that is a great way to build up your self esteem, which appears lacking

It's like they say in the army commercials - be the best that you can be! Do it for yourself. Happiness is really just related to your attitude have a good attitude about life and you'll love your life. Other people want to be around and share their life and times with those that are happy, positive and intelligent.

Ok, im not the best at articulating this.. but here are some good quotes to sum it up:
Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of somebody else.
- Judy Garland
Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it.
- Groucho Marx
“Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance you must keep moving.”
- Albert Einstein

Why don't you get some friends to share it with. Or maybe look at some pictures of people who have lost their legs and can never walk again, or maybe read some articles about the soldiers that have died in the war trying to fight for your freedom. That should help you look at yourself and make you real greatful for what you have.

Do it for yourself, the most important person in the world. Why do girls think they have to have a guy in their life to feel worthwhile. You need to find some activities that you want to do, just for your own growth. Now is the time to develop yourself so when that special guy comes along you will be ready.

The fact that you are able to wake up everyday and make yourself pretty is a blessing in itself. Many people do not have that luxury. So go on girl, do your thing.

You're gonna make it after all!
