Hello everyone! I am new to this board and I'm super glad to find it.
Most of you may cringe at the subject title. Yes, I have dated for a few months with a first year resident -- in a long distance relationship (Dang, have to catch my breath while typing this). I myself is working and happy with starting my career.
Like everyone, I am just starting to understand what we are getting ourselves into. Both he and I did not expect residency to be so hard and of course, after weeks of sleep deprivation, we are noticing the pains of the situation.
We met through mutual friends a year ago and have kept in touched and got closer this year and started dating. Frankly, I really like this guy and he's the first man whom I felt has future potential. I know he cares alot for me too. But, I'm also freaked out b/c I look at my other friends and its so simple for them to call/see their husbands/boyfriend if long distance. However, for me, I have to keep count of his on call days so I know which days are 'off limits'. Yadda yadda, you know what I mean
People say find someone in the area and in another profession. Maybe the one right for me means facing lonely days and being supportive. I am independent, that's no problem, but it sure is nice to be WITH someone I'm actually dating ... I guess I am seeking advice on our situation, your similar experiences;etc. It is so nice just to be able to write this and share with other women (men) who know EXACTLY what I'm talking about.
Thanks so much!
