so i started 'med-skool' couple of weeks ago and i'm sorely disappointed at the lack of female hotties in my class - in fact, me and roughly around 15 guys in the class have already **tched about not having any potential significant others due to lack of physical attraction to any of the females in our year....i know this sounds bad, but in all honesty - physical attraction towards a partner is a HUGE part of a relationship (don't give me that 'beauty is skin deep crap' - although it's true, who wouldn't want someone beautiful) A lot of the guys were looking forward to dating people inside our class - in fact, some were looking forward to possibly marrying someone in the same field as us who shares our compassion for medicine (especially since this is the time of our lives that we are supposed to be finding our future spouse, if we hadn't already found them) And if you think i'm being a 'chauvinistic pig' for writing this, then you really need to realize what's going on. I know for a fact that a significant portion of med students who first enter med school are looking for the 'lookers' within the group - another evidence is during orientation when all the 2nd year guys (especially the single ones) are already labeling whose 'potential' and whose not within the oncoming class...

anyways, wondering if any of the first years out there felt disappointed at the selection of the other sex in their school......looks like i'll be dating women outside of med school.....anyone know any good single bars in Chi-town!
 
take a good look at yourself and the other guys in your class. are you 'lookers'? i didn't think so.
 
not dissappointed at all with the ladies of Weill this year....my problem is most of them are out of my league 😎
 
Normally don't respond to this kind of trash, but just this once, i'll permit myself two sentences.

Guys like you make me so glad i've got a decent boyfriend before getting to medical school.
 
in all seriousness, are you sure you've taken a good look around you? maybe northwestern is different, but there are lots of attractive people in my class at uci. we are definitely a better than average looking bunch if i do say so myself 😉. maybe you are looking for the wrong things in a girl? what do you consider attractive? usually people grow on me, you know? like they may not seem particularly attractive at first glance, but as you get to know them, their uniqueness and personality make them more attractive.

wow, perish the thought.....he's actually placing some value on physical traits in a potential mate, what a bastard. maybe you'd consider the outside possiblity that he's actually not physically attracted to anyone in his class before placing him on the level of larry flynt? 🙄

the feeling i've gotten from a few of the females is that there isnt, i quote, "much to work with" amongst the Y chromosome population here....but somehow i dont think people here will be rushing to call them shallow.........
 
Wow. You know I was seriously trying to choose between Northwestern and Penn at the end. It sounds like I made the right decision. All the guys in our class have to admit there are alot of hotties around.

Yeah, but most people do that or get engaged prior to leaving for med school b/c they're just scared of not being able to find someone later on. I call this the military theory. What a waste ... of course, what would you want with such a skittish little twit anyway?
 
Wow, you must be one of the hottest men in our class. hope I get to meet you...or maybe I already have. Regardless, I'll be on the lookout for a winner like you.

:laugh:

I find this nuts! You spend years in medical school/residency, most of your waking hours with patients and doctors, and at the end of the day, who do you want to see- ANOTHER DOCTOR!!?

Sure that has nothing to do with so many of your classmates being accepted straight out of high school?
 
ooh, according to the facebook you're in the same college... um not trying to instigate anything
 
Well, I'm married, so that takes care of that. But, I'm in SoCal, so there is definitely no shortage of hotties in and out of school.

However, why would you want to date someone whom, if it all goes bad, you'll be staring at for the next FOUR YEARS.

hehe i wouldn't want to date someone in my class anyway, but definitely our class has plenty of attractive people.. Not to mention the other schools (grad, nursing, imaging, etc). For what its worth, our class survey showed the majority of our class was single. (and for Sacrament: that over 27% of us masticated at least once per day!).

hey there DW...from one hottie SDNer to another.

NUCAT... are we really really really in the same college??? I am so all over this guy.

See you at the bar tonight...'mr. martinez'.
 
welllll... unless he's disgused as someone else, looks like you're both in Brisson college (got the facebook login from M1 friend). fun times 🙂
 
lol. I wonder if the OP was dumb enough to use his own name.
 
:laugh: one of our 2nd years is complaining since our class didn't live up to the expectations set by the class before us. then again, he did all his complaining to one of the lookers in our class who has a bf. he is VERY quickly picking up a rep as a prick which I will back but for different reasons.

then again, the class before us is a very high maintenance, girly type while I would say the lookers in my class are much more natural. guess it just depends on what type you are looking for in a mate. 😉 (oh wait, I just realized I'm in TX, no wonder there is a preference to the 2nd years.....😀)

wow, and that he is. interesting that he hasn't bothered to post again. i'd like to believe that someone was messing around and posted it for him. simply because he seems like a quiet guy. but if not....no, he really can't be talking about not finding women in his league.
 
also disturbing that he's thinking about marriage...he's got to be barely 21. good lord man, go on some dates for f***'s sake!
 
i think i'm just going to go study some cell now.....didn't know so many peeps from NU are here....anyways, many guys especially in the van arsdale college feel the exact same sentiment as i do.........


peace
 
and as a response to my age......i know i may be young, but i never said anything about wanting to get married...all i said was "looking for a potential mate" and noted that "some of the guys" were thinking this way, not really pointing to myself....

peace

p.s. hannah (manicmaven)....is that you?

The horror! 27% of your class eats at least once per day?

thats AMAZING!! :laugh:

joe...it's just bad form. many many women from our class are on this thing and you've probably managed to mildly insult quite a few. it would have been better if i didn't now know who you are.

i'm not hannah...though hannah rocks. NUCat figured it out...how, I don't know.

oh and jalby, I'm all about the usc dating action😉
 
didn't know about the big NU crowd here....anyways, i'm entitled to an opinion and i'm sorry i didn't 'hide' myself better....they asked for a name, and i gave it to them.....and hey, it's not my fault a good number of classmates feel this way too....and if i remember right, i'm pretty sure now i know who you are....

see you monday

peace
 
and if those girls feel i'm wrong, then they shouldn't feel insulted at all....take care

peace
 
:laugh:
oooh you thought you were having a hard time finding the chicks before posting this crap, eh joe? bet they just flock to you now! :laugh: :laugh: good luck finding a date. i hope some of the less aesthetically inclined (in your opinion) of them point the "rare" hottie or two in the direction of this thread! :laugh: hoooooooooootey hooooooooooo!
 
i don't really think it was the trouble of trying to hook up...rather not really wanting to..

anyways..peace
 
umm....tried deleting this thread, but i can't seem to? (isn't there usually a delete function in these types of forums) i figure i did get out of hand, and i do apologize to the female population of northwestern..🙁

i'm an idiot, i know...
 
yeah, it's not super hard to figure out who i am from SDN.

it's okay, joe. it was a dumb thing. anyone posting this kind of thing on any of the forums would have been torn a new one.
unfortunately, you were just easily identified as someone most of us are in college with.

the internet is so happy and safe when no one knows who the hell you are.

ps. goodmonkey, you rock my pants off
 
Haha, this makes me laugh and that is all i have to say about that. I'm Paul, I eat tuna at 9 am between lectures at NU. If you want some, just ask. I would be glad to share some of my tuna. 🙂 Although, tomorrow(monday) I am bringing a special midclass meal!!!!! 🙂 take care. paul
 
tuna at 9am... now that's naaaaaasty. 😉

Nooooooooooooooooooooooo we all love tuna. I talk to my cans of tuna since I live alone. They are my friends. I miss you tuna. CHOMP CHOMP. take care. paul
 
DialAView and UCLAMAN are always chowing down protein and creatine in class. Probably trying to play catch-up to Wrigleyville's well-sculpted muscles. Usually they just eat protein powder though, I didn't know they'd been reduced to cans of tuna.
 
P.S. There are plenty of hotties in the class.
 
Are you sure you haven't taken a closer look at some of the girls? I don't go to NUMS, but one of my friends from undergrad just started there as an M1, and she's hotter than the sun. I think she's taken too, BUT any guy would take two looks at her. She's gorgeous.

HAHA. UCLAMAN does nothing. He won't even workout legs. He has let me down. I had a turkey burger and brown rice today in class, yes I brought ketchup and mustard. MMMM. Tuna will be back tomorrow on whole wheat bread. Take Care. Paul
 
Paul is crazy about his tuna. He and UCLAMAN and their creatine kick ass. Wrigleyville and I, on the other hand, share the same favorite morning caffeination.
And that's all I have to say about that.
 
Paul... you've gotta cool it with the tuna in class kid. I can smell that stuff WAY across the room. Manic... I have your identity narrowed down to 2 or 3 potential people. Wanna give me some help?

Oh, and to address the original bone-headed statement in this thread, I think there are plenty of attractive girls in our class.



I'm off to the library...

You can't delete your own threads anymore...only a moderator can. And I charge a pretty hefty price, especially when it's a thread complaining about girls.....

😉
 
Get in line, gentlemen....manic is HOT. White HOT.

hmm...for some reason, I thought I was pretty sure of who you were. now I'm hesitant... if my old guess was right, we may have sat next to each other in PBL. If you ate bananas and bread today, then bingo.
 
If not, I'm blond.
 
You people pay too much attention to what everyone eats.... 😉
