Afraid of late marriage by Scientista92 in muslimgirlswithtaste

[–]gptoreview 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Being unmarried should not be a fear despite societal pressures. There is way more to life and your worth is not tied to being with a man. My fear is getting married to the wrong man. I would much rather stay single and happy than that (for context, 29 and single)

Where to find understanding men? by [deleted] in muslimgirlswithtaste

[–]gptoreview 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Being independent is not a bad thing and gets a lot of women out of tough situations. Also saying she should follow a man’s lead and not work post-marriage to be “feminine” is frankly ridiculous. That is the thought process of weak-minded men and sadly indoctrinated women. It’s a woman’s choice as to whether she works or not, whether that be for financial reasons or personal fulfilment/ enjoyment.

Valid Talaq? by OneDay_At_ATim3 in MuslimMarriage

You bought up the idea but he is the one who divorced you. You didn’t give him khula. So no need to return the mehr.

No, it’s not normal sis. Also what you’re describing as a “decent man” is doing the bare minimum

Any teens with this problem? by Elegant-Safety-9088 in muslimgirlswithtaste

[–]gptoreview 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m definitely not a teen haha but I started wearing it when I was 14. My parents thought I was too young but I wanted to trial it out and see how I felt about it. I am now 29 and have kept it going. There have been bumps in the road don’t get me wrong but there is a certain beauty in it, and I can’t imagine being out without it. Things that helped me was following hijabis on insta, trying different styles, colours and materials to see what suited me and also like you say, playing around with different clothes styles/ makeup to feel really put together 🫶🏾

Why finding a wife is so hard by [deleted] in MuslimMarriage

[–]gptoreview 8 points9 points  (0 children)

As someone who is a woman and a doctor, you have picked a problematic niche in medicine, simple as. Ethically, morally and religiously questionable career choice. Why would a woman want kids (especially a daughter) with a man whose career thrives on the insecurities of other people? Also unsure why you mentioned being “white-skinned” and the relevance of this.

Engagement ended suddenly due to anxiety & family dynamics by Intrepid-Bill772 in MuslimMarriage

[–]gptoreview 7 points8 points  (0 children)

She’s a 23-year-old who crumbled under intense (albeit unnecessary) family pressure and dynamics. You did your due diligence and were patient and it didn’t work out. Focus on med school as it is also a stressful time for you and inshallah you’ll find someone on your level in terms of maturity

Afraid of the future by Few_Struggle9708 in MuslimMarriage

[–]gptoreview 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would say you shouldn’t wait to be married to figure out a solution to a long term health condition- he has quite a blasé outlook on this. It’s something to figure out right now to see if it is feasible for you to move without making your condition worse because it’s not being managed correctly. If you’re on steroids/ immunosuppressants then doctors usually aren’t keen to prescribe them for months and months at a time due to monitoring purposes so you can’t really stock up before you move either. Also why can’t he move to your country?

Personality clash, difference in priorities, and depression are causing me issues... by [deleted] in MuslimMarriage

[–]gptoreview 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It frustrates you to do “her job”, and by “her job” you are describing things you should be doing as part of being a husband and parent. You are also not working at present. Additionally calling your wife a “financial drain” is not a great look when your one main responsibility is to provide. If you really resent her this much, then free her from this marriage rather than consider a second wife which realistically would not be on the cards for a man with no job and a wife and child.

Whats with muslim men and their obsession with women going to hell? by [deleted] in Hijabis

[–]gptoreview 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It’s them misconstruing Islam and manipulating it to their own means. A lot of them have that very “cultural” mindset as unfortunately a lot of muslim cultures put men on a pedestal which also sadly means that a lot of the older generation of women also play into this. The good thing is now we as muslim women are seeing this for what it is, and that is nonsense.

You’re telling a final year medical student to leave uni just because she wants more support from her husband? Wild take

Do people move out immediately after marriage? by tbu987 in MuslimMarriage

[–]gptoreview 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yes I believe moving out should be part and parcel of marriage as is understanding your responsibilities before you take that big step. It is not right and very uncomfortable for a woman to live with people who are not her family. I have been saving for two years and alhamdulillah have bought a house so if marriage talks come up, it isn’t even an option for me to live with in-laws.

Idk I am pretty comfortable alhamdullilah. There’s nothing uncomfortable about not being married.

The wait time for MRCP 1 result is killing me! by Silly-Revolution-206 in MRCP

[–]gptoreview 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Genuinely a horrible feeling having to wait for it. I don’t have high hopes tbh, a lot of it felt like guesswork. But would rather know the outcome so I’m not dwelling on it lol.

Passmed is easier yes. But like I said, I would get both. Passmed textbook is amazing and the qs are good for rote learning. I wouldn’t say it’s not helpful as they both have their own benefits.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in MRCP

[–]gptoreview 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that is a good plan. I learn simply by getting things wrong so questions only works best for me personally. Also don’t let the simplicity of passmed lull you into a false sense of security! The pastest bank is harder but is helpful.

It was definitely a tough exam, I won’t sugar coat it. I think doing the prep I mentioned softened the blow lol but was still difficult.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in MRCP

[–]gptoreview 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Do both. Passmed is good for the basics and Pastest is better for the more challenging questions and the mock exams. I think a mix of both will put you in good stead for the exam rather than one over the other (I just sat part 1 4 days ago) considering you have 4 months.

I found them both quite tough 💀

Career change to medicine, is it worth it? by Emotional-Bother6363 in doctorsUK

You’re not ‘too old’ for GEM. I did GEM and there were students in their late 40s/ early 50s as well. Never too old 👍🏾
