No one should ever think a medical degree will make them more attractive. If you are in the right areas, physicians are dime a dozen, no one is special. With that said, I met my wife on line. She is very intelligent and well educated, she expected a professional as a spouse, being in medical school didn’t hurt. All these years of no success on dating sites, but I finally figured out the system. I figured out the matrix—leverage your med school status. Post a picture of yourself wearing a white coat or wearing professional clothes with a stethoscope and name tag. Once I did that, I went from 0 attention to much attention and engagement.

To give a little bit of background, my boyfriend and I have been together for 3.5 years, he is an M2 and I work full time. I found a job straight out of college 25 minutes from his medical school. Medical school is tough and will not leave you with the kind of time and emotional space necessary to nurture and maintain a healthy relationship. And it's a comparative walk in the park compared to the early years of residencies; there's a reason most marriages do not survive residency.

Medical school is an extremely stressful and for most of us frankly a horrible time. Deadlines, anxiety, subjective evals by attendings, useless school administrations, a huge volume of material to cover it's a recipe for not being at your best emotionally.

A few weeks ago I had a break up and honestly it feels surreal. I still cry almost daily and I can't believe I don't have my person anymore. I was wondering what reddits experience has been with relationships in medical school. How did you all navigate being there for someone else especially when they're also in medical school. What are y'all's opinion on relationships in medical school in general? I often think from the relationships I see that people in med school find partners especially those also in school with them as a way to cope with the stress and many lonely hours of studying. I'm still trying to figure out what part of my relationship was codependent or not. And that's not to say there aren't perfectly healthy ones as well but what are some tips for those in successful relationships in medicine have for the rest of us? I can't blame med school for the break up but damn if school didn't exacerbate every issue in some way or another.

So I'm just curious to hear positive and negative stories and anything in between. Maybe it'll help me or someone else 😁

So long story short, matched with a 21 year old Female, on OkCupid, I am a 30 Male. We chatted for a bit, but it was sporadic and spotty at best. She gave me an area code that matched the area in my state that her profile said she was from, and I started to text her. We sent a few explicit photos back and forth, in which the photos were of a skinny 21 year old femalt, and she immediately wanted to meet me, but still the communication was fragmentary at best. I did not go out to see her. Only for me to get a text message from her 'father' 5 days after having last spoken to 'her' about how she was underage.

I asked multiple times for him to confirm her age,and he just brushed me off saying it was a concern, and that I wasn't taking the situation seriously enough, and that she had attacked his 'wife' and tore an earring out of the 'wife's' ear. He said he would call me back after he talked with his 'wife' 20 minutes later he calls me back and says that he doesn't want to involve the cops, and asks me to pay the medical and EMT bills.

I told him that I would gladly do it, once he sent me copies of his 'daughters' ID card, police report for the assault and the hospital bills. He told me that he wasn't going to send me any identification, even after chewing me out for not asking about an easily falsified age. He then responded that he would just have to turn the phone over to the detectives.
