When your expectations of god exceed the capabilities
When your expectations of god exceed the capabilities
not making the olympic team is the most privileged thing i've heard all week.
you lose all arguments and credibility when you mention "god" seriously
it seems to be implied from this text that she only dates christians. is this basically a form of racism for people of different religions? i suppose not if your head is stuck so deep into the fairytale that is the bible
If this Christmas God is so forgiving, surely he would forgive Lolo is she stopped praying for a bit and tried to date non-Christians for a bit, right?

This is the last time I went out of my house. And honestly the last time I smiled. 2022 has been one of the hardest years of my life. I sometimes don’t leave my house for days on end because I’m so depressed. I lost my dad. I didn’t make the last Olympic team. I tried to go back to run track but I was 25 pounds too heavy from doing Bobsled, so I pretty much got dead last in every race. I tried to move fully into my next job but nothing has panned out.
I thought maybe God is slowing me down so I can focus on a serious relationship. I’ve been wanting to be married for years and now and I have the time to really invest in dates. Wrong. The guy I was talking to for 8 months who said he was a Christian basically was a lie.
So with nothing really moving with work or a relationship I started to feel like I was going to run out of time be able to have kids, so I decided in my down time to feeeze my eggs. The last straw to my strength breaking was when I was teased on social media for freezing my eggs at 39.
It’s very hard to keep praying when you feel like your prayers go unanswered year after year. It’s hard to stand strong when the people who treat you poorly you see them have success. It’s hard to keep trying to go on dates when your heart has continued to be broken.
I’ll go thru moments where I’m reading my Bible nonstop and feel Gods going to work it all out and then the next day i can’t even read one verse because I feel so hurt and forgotten.
So this is what’s been going on. Im grateful for my friends who try to drag me out of the house bc they know how much my heart is hurting. if you’re still reading This after my long rant you are a real one 😂😂
Don't blame God for the flood destroying your life because he sent you several boats to save you and you chose not to get on board. There is nothing Christian about not having sex and there is no way in your 20 years as an adult there has not been one suitable mate. I am sure at one time there were thousands of Christian men who would have impregnated you and married you as well.
agree.

She needs that d*ck. I’ll gladly help her
You have that dick, and it clearly hasn't done much for you. Quite to the contrary, in fact.
Her problem is the Bible. If you listen to a bunch of old religious text to tell you when to have sex you’re wasting your time and your life. Lolo Jones lived in a deluded and unrealistic state in her 20s and 30s that she was going to have sex with the right person only. But realistically, very few men people are going to date a woman like that. It’s one thing to wait past 19 to have sex and another to wait past 30. Nobody is going to want to be with a woman like that to wait to have sex to see if she’s the absolute right woman. Hence, she was stuck in a loop that she would meet her Prince Charming who would honorably withhold on sex until they decided to get married.
The whole staying a virgin until married thing was used at a time when people got married in their late teens. Staying a virgin till age 40 is bananas.
Just a sad, desperate situation. She has put all her eggs in the no sex until marriage basket, but it's just not how people work these days. People have no empathy or respect for someone who has this old school mentality. But there's something wrong with you if you can't empathize and feel bad about her situation. She's trying her best to do what she thinks is right. I don't agree with it personally, but I just can't imagine being a 40 year old virgin with no hope in life because your idea of dating doesn't anymore. Sucks, but I hope she finds peace.
If y’all believe this girl is really a virgin y’all are dense as hell.
She’s a “virgin” … The everything but kind.
Why do all your posters have to be so critical just stop have you never had a rough day if you never had a low moment why don't you send out something positive and support somebody who has given us so much in sport and tries so hard to cling on to good values isn't that enough why can't you be positive why can't you be supportive why can't you be helpful if you don't have anything good to say just don't say anything good luck little Jones appreciate you you very much keep fighting the good fight hopefully somebody will be out there for you
I'm embarrassed at what I've read you guys are a representation of mankind and all you guys can do is criticized and say vile comments about Any person let alone a person who's trying for values so what if the values aren't your values she's working hard to stick to something she believes in how is that not good wow and I used to think runner people were a better slice of the pie cleaner nicer more decent human beings you guys are despicable
Wow man. I suggest reading those two Yode posts, out loud all in one breath.
This is like, the second coming of e e cummings
Her post really sounds a lot like the stuff you hear from incels. "I'm miserable because I can't find a romantic relationship" followed by a bunch of reasons that the many, many people who might be interested in a relationship aren't good enough.

This post is a positive one and encouraging. I guess some posters may find it hard to have sympathy with someone they see as privileged and also who has kind of chosen to be in that situation. People are allowed to have their opinions - some will be positive and some will be negative. I don't know loads about her but it's not like she's posting about having gone through some kind of horrific event. She can't find a boyfriend and is staying inside. She is probably well off and can easily access support so I hope she does that.

Right, at least she’s not droning on and on in a vapid fashion about housing markets or inflation. She has the attention of OP and many others.
