Why do you think people often struggle with a feeling of helplessness after the loss of a relationship?

It is because they feel a loss of control. They feel out of control, because there was no way they could have pre-empted the relationship to end this way. But I think people usually feel angry, apart from helpless. They may feel angry towards the party that ended the relationship or towards a third party that contributed to the breach in this relationship.

Most times it is hard learning to live separate from someone or something that has served as a pillar or rock for you in the past. Sometimes broken relationships rip the very strength from a person. Other times you may feel like you let a “good one go” and you may be convinced that you will never find another so great. Suffering a loss can sometimes cause a person to feel like a loser and if you are not being encouraged to feel any differently the helplessness will soon kick in.

You are lost so that is a helpless feeling.
