Question:I will honestly admit I am not looking for love.
My women friends constantly say it looks for you.

I'm sorry but I just don't get it. How can love look for you, when you are not looking, or keeping it at bay, or just not acknowledging it? I mean if you close your eyes to it or look the other way, how can love find you.

Admit I am very stubborn and impenetrable, so it would take an act of God to do so.(I mean as far as love is concerned)

Your thoughts?

Mark 9:35 says

Sitting down, Jesus called the Twelve and said, "If anyone wants to be first, he must be the very last, and the servant of all."

That is love for you. That is the love that God wants you to share with this world. If you do that, then you will find whatever you are looking for. Not an act of God, but an act God would like to see of you. Do not close your eyes and turn away from anything that is from God. Love has a harder time finding you if you are impenetrable and stubborn. Make your heart soft, and you will see that love is already here ahead of you, waiting for you to show up, with everything prepared as it should be

John 4:20 says

If anyone says, "I love God," yet hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen.

So you have to love everybody. Shine your light. Let it flow forth from you. Why do you need to look for love when it's already bursting out from every one of your seams!?!

im not lookin either.how about we hook up and have fun anyways

Often a woman will step off the market thinking she will never meet someone good enough for her who also likes her (IE where he does not also consider themselves too good to date her).

But, in the process, they become more confident and natural because they are not worried about impressing others...and their confidence attracts the kind of people who were "too good to date them" before. So they turn around and say "now that I have better people willing to date me I will try dating again".

There are so many ways to give your love to others. Being kind and helpful is one way. Loving God is the ultimate way of fulfilling your needs for love.

As for me, i cannot open up my heart again to anyone. I have been hurt, humiliated and insulted by a man i truly cared and love, nothing and no one can melt my hardened heart again. up to an extent that if i ever have to face him again one day, i will not even feel anything again for him, i probably do, but to my peace of mind, i will not let him in my life... I am explaining this in case you meant sexual love or lover's love whatever they call it.

I too am not looking for love...various reasons. I do love to be loved, don't get me wrong, but my standards are a little high and perhaps too intense for some. As for love finding us...well tonight, out of the blue, someone has proposed to me!!!!! Though I doubt they feel the love I seek (and I haven't been in a relationship with this person for at least 23yrs) so perhaps elements of love do find us whilst we turn a blind eye...frankly, the love I would respond to has yet to find me again. And if it ever does I will not be able to resist!

OMG, I have never met another woman just like me before.

I think exactly as you do, and I say the exact same thing. I always say I am very stubborn and impenetrable and it would have to take an act of God for a relationship to happen. lol, I also add that he would have to be a gorgeous saint! lol

When "love" does find me, I simply reject it. I am absolutely not blinded or charmed by the early stages of a relationship, when a man is at his very best behavior, and always putting his best foot forward. Through past experience, I learned all too well that as soon as I allow him in, he will begin to show me his true colors.

I pefer making my way on my own, knowing that I have not missed much by not being in love. All I have to do is look around, and I know I am right.

Sometimes letting go and not persueing is the best way to catch something.
