Does someone always suffer from this? Can it be mutually beneficial?
Last edited:
From my experience the people preaching "Don't **** where you eat!!" are never the ones that have actually dated within their class. As someone about to go into their third year, I can tell you that there are a LOT of people dating within my class, and I can only think of 1 relationship that ended poorly. If you find someone you click with, go for it. Just handle things like a mature adult and don't be an idiot.
@DetectiveAlonzo thats depressing..
I haven't started school yet but I'm going to be attending medical school where everybody will be on edge and stressed out, they're going to need an outlet. I don't mind helping out, we are humans after all,

I prefer Jimmy Johns, but to each their own.Just depends on the type of person you are.
Social interactions stress me out. I'm good at home with a nice subway sandwich and some netflix.
If your name is Gaston and you are 6'0+and have a 250+ on Step 1, med school girls will be into you. Go for it.
If you are under 6'0 and have an average or below average Step 1, they will look at you like you are the Beast. Belle only happens in Disney movies....

yeah everything is fine with this except the subway sandwich. Really your comfort food is a footlong? Dam get some lasagna or beef bourguignon or something.

But Gaston had an impressive bench press max!I'm married since before med school so I don't have any personal experience, but I'm with @DokterMom on this. I know of couples who fell in love in school and got married and are going to live happily ever after. I know of couples who imploded spectacularly. Up to you if the risk of the latter is worth the benefit of the former.
Except for generally asking for people's Step 1 scores is rude and also Gaston is a jerk.
Damn , do you have a 15 inch dong too?Lol my wife told me that she would have not been with me if I was

You don't 5hit where you eat.
I started a relationship in medical school and I'm very, very happy. We were friends for a long time beforehand, though. It's awesome to have somebody who understands how much medical school monopolizes your time, so that's a big plus.

I have no idea what you're talking about.We're probably a bit too fond of each other and have discussed marriage after just a couple months. Is that realistic?

I guess I'm just surprised I actually like a guy from my class to the point where I would want to stop looking forever. It seems too easy[/QUOTE

Depending on your definition of "working" is I would argue it takes a lot more than that to make it work.I met my boyfriend of 4.5 years in my med school class, and we couples matched into the same program (I'm med-peds and he's peds). The key to this working is to have an agreement that you won't treat each other like ****, and it one of you cheats on the other, let it go and break up if necessary.

Also, the individual that led me to ask this question seems to have a major dependence on adderall. He does have an ADD diagnosis, but has to take the medication every day just to function, regardless of the activity. Does anyone have experience with someone that fits this description?
Awful Awful AWFUL decision. there are only two outcomes from this, it works out or it doesn't work out and you are stuck with the most AWFUL and awkward situation ever. Do not be tempted, the risk is too high! This is from someone who has made this godforsaken mistake.
...Have you taken a psych/behavioral science course yet? If he has a genuine ADHD diagnosis, it makes a heck of a lot of sense that he needs the medication to function (especially in medical school which requires insane amounts of concentration/focus) and it's probably not a dependence...that's like saying a type 1 diabetic has a dependence on insulin because they need it every day to function. Technically they are dependent on it, but it's because they have a disease, not because they're addicted to insulin. There is a lot of ADHD in my family and they are all over the place without their meds. If they want to get anything productive done, whether it's for school/work or something else, they need their meds.
while cumbersome, the couples match is amazing - much less stressful than when the people are different years. At least that's the sense I got from watching both types of couples go through it.I just don't get why anyone would voluntarily sign up for the nightmare that is the couples' match, or go their separate ways for residency and inevitably be involved in a cheating scandal... Just doesn't compute. Also, med school girls... Amirite @DetectiveAlonzo
I'm literally all of these things....but barely.Lol my wife told me that she would have not been with me if I was
