The divorce rate in med school and residency had to be close to 80%. My fiancé was asking me last night what I’m going to do when we have kids and I’m on call? I said “I’m going to goto the hospital”

In some Residency/Fellowship programs, the divorce rate can exceed 100%. The Chief Resident tells that at the interview. It is important to find a partner, in the same field that understands the hard work, hours, etc. Best to have a prenup. Have kids after on of you has finished training, unless there is a lot financial support. Avoid accidental pregnancies. Quite a few suicides, litigation, etc due to careless behavior.

I think i'll be okay with being single throughout medical school/ residency =) ... The person that I was dating for 5+ years broke up with me during my MCAT prep because I wasn't spending enough time with them. Imagine if we'd stayed together through med school. Forget about it. Definitely find someone that's in a similar field, or is truly committed to you and understands your ambition.

Dude yeah, a similar thing happened to me. My girlfriend and I broke up because of my study/work/hospital internship (unpaid, of course). 3.5 year relationship. It's very very tough to digest, but I know if we couldn't make it through my premed, medical school wasn't in the question. She was a physics major (we started dating in HS), she was ambitious as well, but she didn't get it.

As a non-medicine individual currently dating a senior internal medicine resident man , here are my thoughts. We started dating at the beginning of his residency and I had a lot of negative feedback from friends saying that it would never work. I agree, that the demand of residency never ceases to impress me. It was a difficult adjustment at first, because even though I consider myself to be understanding there were times when I felt discouraged. But what I can say is that we truly do cherish the time that we do have, whether it be a quick phone call or even meeting him for a quick cup off coffee. I've learned how to be creative when it comes to finding time and doing my best I can to support him. If you truly want eachother it can work but if its an "iffy" relationship it's easy to grow distant .

The few doctors I know all married other doctors they met during residency since I think both parties know the schedule demands

I think certain nurses would understand. I worked ICU up until June (now in residency I stay home), but I saw how hard the doctors in my unit worked, how they were at the nurse and patient's beckon call. So I understood doctors are first married to medicine and their patient's needs and then married to their spouse. I cannot tell you how many weddings, family events and friend hangouts I attended completely alone, it was hard, but I think a strong spouse would definitely understand. I will say this, I always tell my friends not to marry medical students/medical residents unless the end of residency is coming very soon haha. Great video.

Be honest and let people know what you want: Hey I’m not looking for a serious relationship or commitment, but I’m down to “Netflix and chill”. OR Hey I’m looking to settle down, (this will be harder to find). Be honest and don’t waste each other’s time

Hey Buck, great video! What crazy story did you tell those interviews that got you into medicine? a friend of mine got in after saying they were inspired by medical tv shows...

If you are willing to keep up with YOUR LOOK, I'm willing to COMPROMISE for YOU Dr.Buck ;-)..Love for Seattle.

Great video! Thank you 😊

I've bin married for 32 years now so I wish all the love and great things for you... love your sense of humour...your a good man...take care.. 🧔😊😊❤❤

I didn’t get the last part of this video! We can get fired for dating someone we are working with? What ? To be honest , it was painfully hard to date in medical school !! At the tender age of my early twenties I really craved that while studying depressed notes of biochemistry and anatomy!! But nobody wanted to date me at that time. The guys all wanted that Barbie doll blondie hot chic of the class !! It seriously felt like high school where you have one popular hot girl with all guys after her/them!! Today I look back and I can’t believe I allowed that to make me feel depressed, lonely , unwanted and unsupported !!! Today I don’t need anybody’s support . I love to take care of myself. I wish I had the strength to not be so needy for love , support and affection at that time !! I guess the depressed studying made me feel like that but I should have been stronger . But yeah today I have no problem attracting guys . I have confidence today . I didnt do residency but I am never going to chase any man ever again and put myself in that hurting spot. Heck if I knew there was no love in medical school I would have postponed going to medical school and got married first . We all need love and support in the medical profession . I am still single today but not because I couldn’t find love in medical school !! But seriously medical school dating is horrible. It is painfully nonexistent.

Those vague answers. You know who you are.

What about when you are in love with your 10 pound poodle and all you do is show him off? That’s a commitment🥳🥳🥳

So I (27f) just want on a date after a while with a resident who is a first year in surgery. I initiated the first meet up as well as the second. I’m trying to be as accommodating to his schedule. But he did go to a top ranked school and I was really nervous the first date. I didn’t think it went well which is why I asked him the second time. Part of me is also like am I chasing him?? I asked if he’s interested in a second date and he said he was. Part of me is also like why is he interested in me? Lol I have nothing to offer as much as he did. I am considering pharmacy school.

U look like dr rhodes in chicago med series

Short answer: *NO*

I fucking love this guy

Sort of the reason why people decide to go into medicine is because they want to serve a purpose higher than themselves. I would hope to find a spouse that understands my goal and knows that sacrifices we'll have to make to achieve it. It's just how it is. We answered the calling, and now we always will.

My doctors in my hospital are all so lovely and friendly and cute, but most of them have girlfriends and the rest are gay and I just become friends with them instead. My colleagues are making fun of me for occasionally fancying one or two of them, but honestly they are literally almost the only men I see as I work more hours then they do! (I totally don't get the things with the hours being a hard thing for doctors, I definitely work more hours then them, I arrive earlier, leave later and work more days than them).

Why

If u want a life don't go to residency, cus u will marry to your work, and obviously u must love it more than anything to continue. So u must know what you want from life first...

You are an interesting person. However, there are times I watch you and ask myself, "Why are you watching him, Missy?" I mean, your life really relates to nothing in my life. I'm not in medical and never had that desire. I'm a 47-year-old freelance writer who has raised her children alone for about 14 years now. I stay at home. I don't date. And I guess with a few long relationships that failed, I wonder if I will ever date again? I feel that boat sailed around 2006. It's been a long time, and the truth is I don't find myself longing for that type of commitment anymore. I value simple things like poetry, art, listening to birds chirp and solitude. I suppose I'm boring. Maybe I'm waiting for someone special to come to me that will take me as I am. That's what it will take for me to ever consider a relationship again. But, you're fun and I bet your advice does help some people. So, I'll probably keep watching to entertain myself. I always find myself watching on my whimsical days. Lol. Peace. P.S. - Your videos have encouraged me to be more open with my thoughts in a straightforward way instead of just writing them in poems that most people don't have the ability to grasp anyway. That's a good takeaway, right? (giggles)

The reason why female doctors are more "single" than male doctors is because of status. Male doctors will date woman regardless of their job/status. For example ; Female doctors would have a harder time dating male nurses, whereas male doctors do not care about their job and will date them. Women want someone as high achieving and ambitious as them but men care less about that. Men care more about looks. A lot of it is simple biology. Women want the male w/ most resources. Men want the woman with best looks/most fertile.
