2) Sister, I totally understand your feelings but still we will advise to get married and start a new life. Insha Allah you will see the difference.
As you know, Nikah is a great bounty from Allah Ta'ala. The affairs of this world and the hereafter are put in order through marriage. There is a lot of wisdom and many benefits in marriage. A person saves himself from
sinning and his heart is put at ease. He does not have any evil intentions and his thoughts do not begin to wander and stray. The greatest virtue is that there are only benefits and only rewards in this. This is because a
husband and wife's sitting together and engaging in a loving conversation, joking with each other, etc. brings lots of reward.
And Allah knows best.
