Hi Lele, glad the Lord led you to CC and welcome, nice to meet you!!! Re your really good question, I like to rely on this Scripture from Jesus himself:
“Truly I tell you that if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ and has no doubt in his heart but believes that it will happen, it will be done for him. 24Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. 25And when you stand to pray, if you hold anything against another, forgive it, so that your Father in heaven will forgive your trespasses as well.”…Mk 11:23-25
I know people who have wanted to get married, got on Christian Mingles and met their spouse and future spouse. If that's what you desire go for it and cast it to the Lord, imho, lol. God bless you and keep you🙏🌹

Oh yea . . not burning with passion was the emphasis . not discouraging marriage . remember Paul said he said those words of himself and not of the holy spirit ..
1 Corinthians 7:6-7(KJV) But I speak this by permission, and not of commandment.
For I would that all men were even as I myself. But every man hath his proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another after that. Let's be diligent in serving the Father .

If God has marriage for us, it will not be a struggle or a worry, He will provide what is good for us when we follow Him, and it may not be marriage.
If we focus on God & His Kingdom,
And not set our heart on something that may not be in God’s plan for us, then we will not be disappointed.
Matthew 6:21,25-33 KJV
For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
[25] Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?
[26] Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?
[27] Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?
[28] And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:
[29] And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
[30] Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?
[31] Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?
[32] (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek, for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.
[33] But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
Matthew 19:29 KJV
And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life.
We cannot follow God on our conditions.

Did you miss where I never said anything about a command? I quoted scripture to correct your statement. Rather than accepting it you your morphed responses to get around it, and failed. Now you're trying to accuse me of things I never said nor implied. I simply stated that, using the given scripture, marriage is not a promise in answer to the OP.
I can see this is not only a dead end conversation with you, but descending into false claims. I'm done.

Friend i am here that I myself maybe enlightened and also edify my readers . you quoted a scripture 1 cor 7 ;8,9 but prior to that in 1cor 7 ;6,7 Paul spoke warned about what he was to say in verse 8 and 9 as being his words and preference and not commanded to say by the holy spirit . thats all I hoped you would see . anyway I pray peace .God bless
