The feeling of solitude while striving to stay halal.

As a young woman who's never been in a relationship, I see many of our youth, especially in Western societies, getting drawn into haram relationships, alhamdulillah. I've stayed away from that, but honestly, I've hit a point where I feel really lonely and like no one cares. I know getting close to men in that way is haram, but there's this deep ache inside for companionship and to feel loved. Sometimes it seems like everyone else is finding love and connection, and I'm just here, trying to be patient and hold onto my deen. I don't even know how or when I'll meet my future husband, insha'Allah. I trust in Allah's (SWT) plan for my qadr and who He has written for me, but sometimes I wonder if I'll ever have my own halal love story. Does anyone else feel like this? Juggling faith with this need for emotional closeness is tougher than I thought. I make dua that Allah (SWT) grants all of us pious spouses who bring comfort and love into our lives.
