For background, I'm a 40 male with no relationship experience. I've not slept with anyone, either, so don't think I'm just single because I'm playing the field or something.

Now, I get that I might have more of a "niche appeal" than most, but NOBODY in 40 YEARS? If there were someone whose life would benefit from having me in it (and vice versa), you'd think that God would arrange for us to be in the same place at the same time when we're both available. Even if He didn't want to help out for my sake, He'd at least intervene for the sake of the other person, right?

I'm sure most people here (possibly everyone here) are not in a situation as extreme as mine. Still, has anybody else wondered about this? What's the good that comes from not guiding people who need each other toward each other? Does God intervene to keep some people single? I mean, He doesn't keep people apart who would be unfaithful to their partners or subject them to physical violence, but maybe some of us are worse, somehow?

I don't know. I'm very confused. Somebody please help me understand.
