Feelings Of Loneliness

[OnlySunshine]

I'm still struggling with feelings of loneliness, especially after learning that one of my best friends is engaged. I have had some feelings for him for a while and it's been hard on me after learning that he is no longer available. It's weird because I have not felt the pull to date anyone in a long time, especially seriously. I've never had a boyfriend or even been close to that point. But lately, even before learning of the engagement, I've been feeling the call to discern marriage once again. I can't tell if this is because of the loneliness in my heart or if it is God's will. I think I'm going through a spiritual desert right now. Sometimes I feel so close to the Eucharist, but other times, I cannot see God at all even though I know He is there. I need prayers that I can get through this and truly discern what God is calling me to instead of relying on feelings.
