what is your input...
my girlfriend and i have been together for over a year. she is a med student, graduating this year, and is about to begin interviewing with hospitals in her home state, my home state, and the one in-between. originally, when i brought it up, she indicated that she had been planning on asking me and that she thought it would be fun if we went together to the cities where she will be interviewing for those dates. recently, however, it came up again and she indicated that she does not want anyone to go with her to XYZ cities (and and all of them) when she travels there for her interviews. not even me.
i see major red flag action here, given that i am willing to leave my home state to go wherever she matches, give up years of life together while she plugs through a surgery residency, give up having kids earlier rather than later in life, and have to study for a state bar exam that is for a state for which i have not studied.
i'm curious what your experiences with residency interviews with your spouse/partner were, and what your gut reaction is to the scan info i've provided you here. note: i'm not asking "what should i do with my life," i'm just asking what your initial thoughts are.
thanks in advance.
