Divorce isn't an end; it's a different beginning.
One Day You'll Read This
Hey stranger, Its been quite some time since I've last seen your face. I honestly thought the image of it would fade away from my mind by now... turns out I was wrong. As soon as I close my eyes, I can see it as if you were right in front of me. These days, I'm not sure if you'll ever be right in front of me again.

Post-divorce period: when do not commitment relationships cease to be the norm
The non-commitment in relations become common not only among those who are divorced but also among young people. The reason is the fear of repeating a failure in a relationship. In fact, such a reaction after a divorce is somewhat natural. But when a person spends many years in a relationship without commitment, it is worth seriously considering that this is not entirely normal. This is especially true among women since it is much easier for men to overcome this fear.

The Meeting
In September 2016 I met him. Good looking, strong, confident, tall, deep voice. I paid him no attention. Honestly I just wanted to get the day over with. A group of us were headed to a recruiting sub station to run what was called an initial strength test in order to qualify for the Marine Corps. He did so well and I did so bad that I was embarrassed. I didn’t speak to him until I graduated boot camp that December. I felt so motivated as most new Marines do. I was able to earn extra time off assisting recruiters with another new group of Marines, and he was one of them.

Newly Divorced?
To the newly divorced woman, vacation and holiday season can be especially difficult. With all the focus around family, being together, love and happiness, it sometimes feels as if the world is literally celebrating around your loss. While vacation is something that we are expected to look forward to, experiencing it on your own again takes some getting used to. It can be lonely, and hard to find things to do. BUT, we can get through it. And how do I know that? Because we always do.

My Story
I am Ronalda Angasan (Ronalda Rude {Olivera}). I am a survivor of a 20+ year abusive relationship. Before that, I was in other equally abusive relationships. My mother, my aunts, my grandmother—all survivors of either rape, domestic violence, or assault (in some cases—all three). As Alaska Natives we have many traditions, this is one I hope stops with my generation.
