My thoughts:
I had a very full life with friends, boyfriends, etc. I had what I considered to be a healthy sex life and, by most measures, all was cool. (Now, I did have a lot of evil guys in my past, but all in all, I had lots of fun.)
There came a time in my life - just earlier this year - when I evaluated my life and thought "what am I doing?" That's the point when I came back to God. It's why I'm in seminary now. I am to have ONE husband for life. Dating is just not for me any more. As I've said, there's a huge difference between dating and courtship.
I feel more full and complete now, with God, than when I was running around having all my "fun." I'm not content, but I am happy. I won't be content until I die, because once I'm content, what's the point of going on?
ETA: Sorry, I forgot to mention that I don't feel the least bit empty right now, but I honestly believe my ministry would be more powerful with two heads instead of one.
