Yep. I'm going to be a doctor down the road, and realizing I'm going to inevitably have to work some odd hours, nothing would make me happier than to find a woman with some interesting hobbies who wants to raise a family and who can create her place in life through roles other than a time-consuming career.
Or, if she wants to bring me home the gold and let me work a few hours per week to keep the license functioning, I'm happy with that, too. I'll take care of the kiddos and enjoy my hobbies.
I prefer option one for many reasons, but whatever works. I just want a family that's well-taken care of.
If you are going to be a doctor down the road hoss, then I am here to assure you that finding a decent woman willing to be your wife, have children and be a mom to them should be far easier for you than some schlub digging ditches.
You will most likely marry a nurse or PA who will sacrifice her "career" (they have careers not jobs like us) for you and ya'lls kids.
I wish you the best.....good docs here at St Thomas are the only reason sides God that I'm here playing around on FR at 2AM
but....don't ditch the nurse-wife in 20 years for a younger one...it's hell on all those children you'll have and your financial statement
