significant other

Hi everyone! I'm a second year medical student in the midwest; I'm originally from the East Coast, and have been pretty homesick since starting school. I am really hoping to match back closer to home, specifically NY, NJ, or MA in Anesthesiology or Emergency Medicine. Also, my partner is tied to...

Hi all! I’m new here. I wanted to hop on this forum for support in being a “medwife.” I seem to be struggling in our relationship with my SO being so busy all the time. So I get it and I let him study and do his thing but the smallest things will get me upset. For example, weekends are his true...

Hi Everyone, So, I am currently studying Speech-language pathology at college that offers their program mostly online, which is great but here's the thing... I really feel like if I continue and become an SLP, I'd be settling with a career that I'm not totally invested in. I've wanted to be an...

The town where I am set to begin residency is rather small. My wife has been working and building her career for the past 5 years and I’m afraid there may be less opportunity for her to flourish. We’re going to be about 1.5 hours from a major metropolitan area where she can really prosper +...

I'm new to this site, but my SO is a pre-veterinary student. He is currently waiting to hear back from his vet school of choice and the stress/strain it is putting on our relationship is crazy sometimes. We have the same major (animal sci) and I have a science/animal background because of it, so...

I am a third-year pre-med undergrad (planning on applying summer 2019 and starting med school in Summer 2020 if all goes well) and my SO is starting M1 (4.5 hour drive from me) tomorrow. We've been dating for 2 years now, he went to my undergrad school, and we are from the same hometown. We were...

Hello everyone, I recently got accepted into medical school and its in the middle of nowhere. I am honored to finally be a med student and excited to start my career in healthcare, but the only school I got accepted into is in a rural location. I would like some opinions from those who were/or...

Edited to “delete”, as there isn’t apparently a way to do this. I was foolish and assumed this was anonymous, but @sb247 makes some very good points. Thank you for that. At the very least, I’ll bring this up at my next councilling appointment.

My boyfriend started medical school about a month ago and Im having some tough moments relating to the stress he's going through. I do my best to be supportive, I do more of the chores, cooking, cleaning to make things less stressful for him. I do my best to help him calm down when he's stressed...

My SO has been going to interviews in other cities and it just dawned on me that I was not invited to tag along on any of the trips. This really wouldn't be a big deal if we hadn't sat down and discussed the best options for where we, together, would be moving. I would never want to impede on...

Hello everyone, Let me get right into it, as the title of the thread suggests, my husband will be matching one year after me. I am applying to IM this upcoming cycle in 2017 and he will be applying in 2018. We are both IMGs and hoping to get into university based programs. We are both...
