Why do you think people often struggle with a feeling of helplessness after the loss of a relationship?
-
Because you kind of feel like you have lost a part of yourself and a part of your identity.
-
Perhaps they are too dependent on that person or that person is the decision maker. Perhaps that person has encouraged the person struggling to give up other relationships and therefore there is no one to turn to. Also, perhaps by loosing the relationship a person may not have confidence to move forward.
-
Because of the emotional impact and how overwhelming it can be. Also, it is a fact that one can’t change the mind of another of personally restore what has been lost.Helplessness therefore is a natural realisation until hope in something equally good or better arises
-
because it is a shock to our system to live without them. And loss can release old hurts that meed more intergrating

The loss of a relationship is hard and can be a struggle because it also makes you feel rejected. When I went through divorce my husband at the time left me when I was dealing with some issues from my childhood. He made a choice to not stay and be patient and help me and left. I was helpless as I did not ask for the divorce and had invested around 26 years of my life in this relationship. I was rejected and was no longer a married individual due to another individuals decision. I was helpless and felt lost for quit a while but God never left me and led me down a path to where I am now. I have an awesome marriage to an awesome man who also has leaned on God though hardship. God never leaves us nor forsakes us no matter what we go through.
