I've never really had trouble finding and maintaining relationships throughout my life, but it's safe to say that I'm not the most attractive guy (probably a 6/10 if I'm being honest with myself) nor am I the most charming, caring or empathetic. Although we would all like to think that dating is only about finding a soul mate, a lot of times other factors like career prestige or future income potential can play a role (conscious or unconscious) in attraction. In that regard, I think being a medical student pretty significantly increases my desirability as a partner and has made me more selective in who I choose to date.
Do you think it's wrong of me to think that way? Is it wrong for me to reject someone who I am attracted to just because I think I can do better? Is it wrong for me to want to only date another graduate level professional rather than someone who is only a college graduate? If there's a girl who complements my personality perfectly but isn't as educated or career driven as I am is that ok?
I'm having trouble formulating precisely what my question is but I guess I just want to know how (if at all) being a med student or physician has changed the way you date and if you think that's healthy for you or not.
