I saw my ex-fiance again tonight. It was the first time since we've broken up that I've seen her. I miss her so much, I love her so much and I'm so lonely without her. What does God have to say on the subject of loneliness? I can't bear this feeling of loss and loneliness any more. Thanks.

Deuteronomy 31:6
Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for the LORD your God, He is the One who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you."
We are never alone, ever.
Hebrews 13:5
Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, "I will never leave you nor forsake you."
When we are feeling the most down, the most lonely, Jesus is there, right beside us, to comfort us and to give us strength to always carry on.
Psalm 94:19
In the multitude of my anxieties within me, Your comforts delight my soul.
Psalm 23
The LORD the Shepherd of His People
A Psalm of David.
1 The LORD is my shepherd;
I shall not want.
2He makes me to lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside the still waters.
3He restores my soul;
He leads me in the paths of righteousness
For His name's sake.
4Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil;
For You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
5You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
You anoint my head with oil;
My cup runs over.
6Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
All the days of my life;
And I will dwell in the house of the LORD
Forever.
These verses comfort me in times of stress. I pray that the Lord our God will touch your heart and comfort you in this time.

We're here. I answer PM's. I suspect most people here answer PM's.

Elizabeth has given you some good verses. Let me give you one more.
"Do not fear for I am with you. Do not anxiously look about you for I am your God. I will strengthen you, surely I will help you, surely I will uphold you with My righteous right hand." Isaiah 41:10
Having been exactly in your position before, let me urge you to seek the company of believing friends who can pray for you and support you as well with time spent with you during this time of sadness. Stay in the Word and seek His will, not yours. I know; I prayed my own will for a solid year and never knew peace until I gave up and asked the Lord what was His will in the situation.

times heals all wounds, trite cliche' I know, but it's true, time will heal your wounds too, I can promise...
if there was something there she won't be able to forget you, she may try, she can't,.. she may even knock again on your door one day, happened to me many times, even happened with my first wife,... too late, I had married again,... even so, I loved her and tried 'juggling' them both,... don't do this, first wife ended up attempting suicide, she called before she went under (massive overdose), her life was saved,... don't juggle your woman, don't ever lead anyone on,.. stay true to the one you've commited to, even if you love the former as well...

I'm sorry you're lonely :hug There is another brother in the Prayer Request Forum who sounds like he's feeling just like you. I'm asking God to fill you with His joy and peace. Psalm 37:3-5 is a precious promise:
3 Trust in the Lord, and do good;
Dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness.
4 Delight yourself also in the Lord,
And He shall give you the desires of your heart.
5 Commit your way to the Lord,
Trust also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass.

ManhattanGuy I'm sorry you are hurting....I wish I could take you out for a couple of taco's and give 'ya big hug. There's nothing I can really say to make you feel "better"...the only thing I know is that we do not have a High Priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses and our sufferings and our hurts. We love ya' bro.

Perhaps you could tell her these things.......???
I don't know your situation but I will ask God for you.......HE can soften hearts.

i've been in the same exact situation when my fiance who l lived with (knew her for 8 years, lived with her for 4) cheated on me :cry and i went into a massive depression and started drinking
i woulden't advise that at all. a little advice i can give from experiance is wait and heal fully, do NOT go into a rebound relationship to try and "heal" the hurt
i did that and it ended up just making things worse

The Psalm's are a good place to go ManhattanGuy. I pray that your burden will be eased, and that the Lord will put a spring in your step, and fill your heart with joy. Take this time to draw closer to Him, for He knows our pain and sorrow. PM any of us brother, we do care for you.
Psalm 25
Of David.
1 [1] To you, O LORD , I lift up my soul;
2 in you I trust, O my God.
Do not let me be put to shame,
nor let my enemies triumph over me.
3 No one whose hope is in you
will ever be put to shame,
but they will be put to shame
who are treacherous without excuse.
4 Show me your ways, O LORD ,
teach me your paths;
5 guide me in your truth and teach me,
for you are God my Savior,
and my hope is in you all day long.
6 Remember, O LORD , your great mercy and love,
for they are from of old.
7 Remember not the sins of my youth
and my rebellious ways;
according to your love remember me,
for you are good, O LORD .
8 Good and upright is the LORD ;
therefore he instructs sinners in his ways.
9 He guides the humble in what is right
and teaches them his way.
10 All the ways of the LORD are loving and faithful
for those who keep the demands of his covenant.
11 For the sake of your name, O LORD ,
forgive my iniquity, though it is great.
12 Who, then, is the man that fears the LORD ?
He will instruct him in the way chosen for him.
13 He will spend his days in prosperity,
and his descendants will inherit the land.
14 The LORD confides in those who fear him;
he makes his covenant known to them.
15 My eyes are ever on the LORD ,
for only he will release my feet from the snare.
16 Turn to me and be gracious to me,
for I am lonely and afflicted.
17 The troubles of my heart have multiplied;
free me from my anguish.
18 Look upon my affliction and my distress
and take away all my sins.
19 See how my enemies have increased
and how fiercely they hate me!
20 Guard my life and rescue me;
let me not be put to shame,
for I take refuge in you.
21 May integrity and uprightness protect me,
because my hope is in you.
22 Redeem Israel, O God,
from all their troubles!
