I want to get married, but should I wait until the new system?

[DayjaJW]

Hello friends! My name is Dayja, I’m a 28 year old sister, I’ve been baptized for 6 years. I have always desired to have a mate, but I have not had success with finding one. I’ve actually never had a relationship or dated seriously. It has been somewhat discouraging, because I have felt overlooked, while some sisters are able to get attention from brothers more easily. My main concern at this time, is to focus on my spiritually and do more for Jehovah, as well as adopt qualities that would make a better wife, as well as work on my physical appearance. However, the desire for mate is still strong and sometimes I worry if I will ever find true love, but I determined to wait on Jehovah. Which brings me to my question for those who are married who have felt like me, if you were to go back, would you get married again? Did married life make you happier? Or would it be better for me to wait until the new system to get married?

That's the best thing to do. Jehovah will provides when you don't expect it.

- Yes.
- I was already happy. It just bring a different kind of happiness.
- No one can answer this question in your behalf. Rejoice in Jehovah, he will bring you opportunities.

Just make sure any potential mate LOVES JEHOVAH more than you

Yes, I am married since 53 years but the more important to be realy happy is to put Jéhovah at the first place

 I was married twice and am now a widow. For me, marriage will only be possible in the new system.

I don't have more patient for it.

I Corinthians 7:28 But even if you did marry, you would commit no sin. And if a virgin married, such a person would commit no sin. However, those who do will have tribulation in their flesh. But I am trying to spare you.

My dear sister/daughter, trust me I’ve been married twice both times to brothers. But I’ve been my happiest single. It’s not that I didn’t want headship or had a problem with submission. There are predatory brothers who lurk for vulnerable sisters. They love the part of us being in submission but fail to lead like Christ. Enjoy being single as a sister with Christ as your head, until that new system comes, you’ll have the best provider a friend possible. Marriage can be the most beautiful relationship in your life but it can also be your worse. You won’t be single forever so enjoy serving as fully as possible for now
