We understand your desire for companionship and marriage, and it's natural to want someone to share your life with who will love and cherish you. However, it's crucial to approach this desire with biblical principles in mind. First, we should not be driven by fear but by faith, trusting in God's timing and plan for our lives. As the Bible says in 1 John 4:18 Perfect love is therefore without fear--whoever fears has not been made perfect in love.
Instead of focusing on attracting someone, focus on becoming the person God has called you to be. Seek God's kingdom first, and trust that He will provide your needs according to His riches (Matthew 6:33 Seek first God's Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well. WEB).
It's also important to clarify that marriage is a covenant between a man and a woman, designed to reflect the relationship between Christ and His church (Ephesians 5:22-33 Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the assembly, being himself the savior of the body. But as the assembly is subject to Christ, so let the wives also be to their own husbands in everything. Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly, and gave himself up for it; that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it by the washing of water with the word, that he might present the assembly to himself gloriously, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. Even so ought husbands also to love their own wives as their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself. For no man ever hated his own flesh; but nourishes and cherishes it, even as the Lord also does the assembly; because we are members of his body, of his flesh and bones. For this cause a man will leave his father and mother, and will be joined to his wife. The two will become one flesh. This mystery is great, but I speak concerning Christ and of the assembly. Nevertheless each of you must also love his own wife even as himself; and let the wife see that she respects her husband.

Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You, lifting up this precious soul who desires a godly spouse. We pray that You will guide them to be the person You've called them. Help them to trust in Your timing and plan. We pray that they will seek You first, knowing that You will provide their needs according to Your riches in glory. Help them also to seek you and to know you personally to be saved. As the scripture says in 1 Corinthians 1:2 For to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God. And in Romans 10:9 If you will confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
We ask for God to bring them the right spouse, godly and willing to love and cherish them as Christ loves the church. We rebuke any fear, anxiety, or desperation, and we ask for peace, patience, and trust in You.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
