Why can't the young and the old find the right person

I am posting this in each section, because of the importance in getting responses.



Why can't the young and the old find the right person for Marriage?





I look back when I met my ex-wife 35 years ago. We bumped into each other in a parking lot. We smiled at each other, and then we talked to each other. Then I called her for a date and we both knew soon after, we were in love. We were not equally yoked, but the pastor from my church didn't put emphasis on the matter, after 27 years of marriage, then came our divorce. Can we really find Love on the Internet? Many say they can.

I have a son 30 and a daughter 24 and neither are in a relationship. I see more young people on here than the older ones. I believe people are not the same as they were 40 years ago. People today would rather surf the web for a date than look for a date. People in general don�t smile to strangers, let alone speak to strangers. If they do, they would rather text on the phone or email than call them again.

The core to the problem, people are interested in their gadgets and their busy lives more than the fellowship in talking with them in person. We need to get back to the Golden Rule that we have lost over the years. We should be kind and love everyone, that is what the Bible tells us to do!



Is it because we are living in the last days?



Would love to hear what others think about this issue.

Good evening NC,



I would have to agree with you. We have taken the joy out of meeting someone on the street and letting them see us smile. I cant explain how technology has got us so caught up and taken our focus to another level, a different direction, and stole our person to person encounters. But I do believe we can get it back but the question is where do we start, where do we go to meet other christians like ourselves? Seeking the same answers as you with a couple more questions added. Seeking true christian love in a human.
