My SO has explicitly forbidden me to talk about "gross medical stuff" when I'm with her.Creamfly said:How about the opposite? Anything a med student can do to make it better for your sig other? My SO is very understanding and I've been very understanding with her going to NP school. I just want to make her feel that she's still a BIG part of my life while enduring the pressures and time management of med school. Any suggestions? We have all ready discussed about making one night a week "our" night and working out together (when she doesn't work).

If your SO (that's husband or wife) has a schedule that is much more demanding, the best thing to do is cheerfully pick up as much slack as you can. When I was in school, my husband worked to support us and did most of the chores. Now that I'm out and he's in school, I upped my share and try to be super-supportive. And I do try to have sex with him whenever he wants it. Sex makes him feel loved, or so he says.
