Why doctors make the worst friends (dates)

1. They're smart, but mostly in an intellectual uninspiring way. Doctors need grades to get into medical school and continue to produce grades until graduation. They're impossible know-it-alls but when it comes to simple day-to-day conversation, can talk a fly to sleep. In short, they're very boring once you get over the "omg they're so smart sex appeal".

2. They don't have time. Busy studying. Busy delivering babies. Busy preparing slides. Busy vampiring patients for blood. BUSY BUSY BUSY.

3. They psychoanalyze. ALOT. The thing about medical school is Psychiatry is a compulsory rotation. We've seen it all and we cannot help but wonder if our friends are showing early signs of dementia, psychosis, or an affective disorder....

LOL

4. They're not exactly rich, contrary to popular belief. Doctors are mostly living off their parents until the age of 25-26 on average as they don't actually get paid until then. Oh, not to forget the 1mil dollar loan they have to spend a lifetime paying off. And more exams after graduation as well, which is mostly self-financed. You can kiss PRADA goodbye.

5. They idolize and enjoy things normal people don't get. Doctors enjoy Professors of medicine talking intelligent shit that nobody elsewhere gives a flying fuck about. As a result, most doctors find things outside medicine extremely dry.

So who wants to fuck a boring, perpetually unavailable, psychotic weirdo who has medical school loans they have to pay off until the age of 60?

No wonder I'm so un-fuckable and un-dateable. It's definitely not me. It's my profession.

the classic 21st century, first world problems.
