So, as a single woman in 2009 I must say that sometimes the men in my life...well the single men in the world just need to "man up" and get over their commitment phobia crapola!
What is up with the Christian men anyway? There are so many of us women that would love to be married and have a family, but the men in our lives are scared or something. And the more I study the Bible and pray and seek God's will for that aspect of my life; the more I see that the Bible says things like "a noble wife who can find?" FIND the way it is used in the OT and NT is an ACTION word. God is not just going to hit men and women on the forehead with a 2x4 and say "this is the one." The guys need to do the pursuing, the searching and seeking.
Meanwhile, we women don't just stay home whiling away the time. We have to be going about our lives, serving the Lord and being totally committed to Him and His will. We need to work on becoming like the Proverbs 31 woman, but with a modern adaptation. God does not expect us to spin our own wool or anything, but HE does expect us to be good stewards of everything HE has given us.
We women need to be busy becoming women of God and finding what the Lord's will is for our lives and then going out and working to fulfill that purpose. As we women do this, maybe it will give the guys time to figure their stuff out. This single girl can only hope and pray!

Honestly, if the guy doesn't "man-up", maybe it's best to move on. A woman cannot build up false hope for something that may or may not happen. Don't waste your emotions on the waiting game. Some guys to need to man-up, but a woman shouldn't wait around for him. Single women must invest in the Lord ENTIRELY; actions, words, thoughts, and emotions. If it hasn't happened at this point, than maybe it's best to let him go, otherwise the potential of a relationship will become a false idol.
