Karissa’s Answer
Maintaing relationships is the hardest part. You have years of intensive schooling, then a residency in Surgery and finally a fellowship. You have no time for dating or starting or keep a relationship going. I left my husband in medical school because he was never around. Don't put another person through this.
Plan out how long your schooling will take
Disclose your career plan to all romantic partners
