Introduction
According to statistics, doctors are most likely to marry someone from the medical field.
This is the result of several factors that we explained in a previous article (link to why doctors prefer to marry docs article).
If you are a doctor and you’re thinking of marrying one, ask yourself whether you really want to do that; measure the benefits and pitfalls of being with someone from the same field before you make any decisions. However, if you are convinced that you want to marry a doctor, we are here to help you find a partner, using 4 simple tips.
4 tips to find your medical soulmate
The old fashion way Most married doctors meet during medical school, where students spend the vast majority of their time.
Whether you’re attending lectures in the classroom or doing rounds in the hospital, you are most likely going to meet someone that you find attractive.
While the first relationships might not end up in marriage, it is still a good way experience to see if this arrangement suits you.
During the residency program
Medical residents work around 80 hours per week in the US. This number varies greatly between countries, but you should expect it to range between 45-80 hours.
Spending that much time in the hospital with doctors might be a good chance to meet your soulmate.
What’s great about meeting your partner during residency is that you’ll get to really know each other, especially with the constant stress and pressure. This allows you to get close to other physicians, and perhaps stumble upon your future spouse.
Use the power of social media
Social media is a great tool to connect with other doctors, especially if you’re the timid type.
You can get in touch with physicians and talk about different topics while looking for your soulmate. This strategy is advantageous since you already have something in common –medicine–, which acts as an ice breaker.
Check out dating websites
Several websites were specifically designed for dating doctors; however, other mainstream dating apps also have some features that allow you to search for specific job titles.
This choice is perfect since neither you or your future partner have the time to go to bars, clubs, and other social events.
Conclusion
While it’s true that the career choice of a person does not determine whether they’re marriage-material or not, some doctors cannot imagine themselves marrying someone from outside the medical field.
Hopefully, you will find the tips we covered helpful in the journey to meet your soulmate.
