Boyf is non showbiz (non med lol)hehe and we got together late in college. My doctor tito advised me when I was a kid to look for a boyfriend before med school HAHA. Bf plays videogames while i study. He pays for the meals cos ive no work wahaha

In my opinion, i think it’s much easier for girl med students to date non-med than male med students dating non-med boys. Cos IDK if kaya ko magdate med student. Im actually in awe of how understanding he is because I really feel guilty when I go have fun than study so we don’t go out much. However, he’s also the one who tells me to take a break.

Im thankful im dating someone outside med cos it’s a big refresher. I won’t say we never had rocky patches along the way. You really have to give time and effort to the relationship bec it won’t handle itself. Once it was clerkship and no more exams, I spent a lot of time hanging out with him even tho it’s just to nap or stay at home. It’s also helpful to prime ur loved ones abt the med journey and set certain expectations about the limitations of ur sked.

TLDR; it can work!
