*If you don't care, don't read. It's as easy as that :) *

Medicine and friends are more important. I've decided to part ways with my significant other. I'm in the early stages of medicine, and I know it's only going to get harder. If I'm tied down, I have no time to see my friends outside of the hospital or school. She's ok with it, she knows that one way or another we would slowly drift apart, as medicine in the most important thing in my life. Better to do it now than later. I'm happy and sad at the same time...it's such a confusing state of mind.

Good luck Noob. If you feel deep down this was the right decision, it probably was. :)




































Unless she wins the lottery tomorrow in which case Jesus is mocking you

thats an intense and tough decision...
from your post im assuming you are going to begin working with medicine
or are you undergoing some kind of treatment?

at least the first instance is a less painful process to add this one to.
good luck.

I guess I should add that she's still a "buddy" until July when she moves up to Indiana....without me. And no pics, I don't want to lose "buddy privileges."

Next year starts my application process to Med School. That, ontop of a 50-60 hour week at the hospital does not bode well for a relationship.

thats true and im pretty impressed of the choice. generally, i let relationships die out slowly and painfully. but, hell, at least you arnt stuck in the hospital for treatments AND decided to end the relationship.
things will probably work out pretty well for you...youre smart enough and willing to make tough choices like that so im sure good things will come of it.

That's amazing, it really is. I'm glad that you and her can do that. I don't plan on getting married until AT LEAST residency. I'll probably find some cute nurse who wants me for my money so I can trade off when she gets old and ugly. ;)

Friends are more important? Wow. I guess you did make the right decision. If your friends are more important to you than your SO then you had a messed relationship or you just didn't love her. At least you didn't waste the time trying to make it work.

Or I realized that I'm still incredibly young, and I want to make the most out of my life before I settle down. It has nothing to do with rather I love her or not, and you're not really qualified to make that determination. It's that I'm young, and I'm not ready to move to another state to make it work.

Kudo's to your commitment to medicine. but why you dumping her now? you havent even applied to medschool yet. If you waited a little later, you could have pretended the reason was distance and was not your choice. I think you are taking this medicine crap too seriously for an UNDERGRAD.

Im a few years ahead of you, and i can tell you.....you have yet begun the path to medical school hell. It only begins when you start 1st year medical school. After classes are done, you have rotations, then you become an intern, then you become a resident, a newbie doc if you will. Its a good 10 years before you become respected as an attending.
