I date with emergency room doctor. He always said that he doesn't have time to spend with me? Is it true?

Question

I have been dating with emergency room doctor for 2 months. He always said that he doesn't have time to spend with me? I'm wondering that it's true? One time, he said that he wanted me to date with other guy because he doesn't know when he will have time to see me, but after that i met him once a week. How come?

Do u have expereience about date with a doctor? please share with me I would like to know how to handle it. Do u think he has many girls because you know...doctor is very interesting. (I don't mean his money)

Answer 1

being a doctor myself, it's true. our time is precious since we have so little of it. what little time we have, even though we want to spend it with someone we love, we tend to fall asleep. not that we do it on purpose, we're just to dead tired sometimes that it happens. your bf being an er doctor is worse because they are the most tired people of all. have you been to an emergency room? has it ever been empty? with so many accidents happening, and people getting sick, it's always work work work for him. so just try to understand your bf's line of work. be supportive. if you love him, you'll stick by him :) good luck!

Hey, I know it can seem confusing as to what you should or should not do and i will tell you now that one thing you should do is tell your parents. They need to know so they can get you the help you need to deal with this. Don't be ashamed of it because we all needed help at one point or another in our lives. If you feel that things are getting too much and it is after hours even in the middle of the night and you feel it is real bad and you consider it an emergency i would go wake up your parents and talk to them. Never leave anything until it is too late. I am not sure where you live but here in Australia the doctors even tell us that we should go to the emergency room if we feel like we are unable to cope as hospitals do have after hours mental health teams in the hospitals. While it is true that in the beginning emergency's were limited in their definition as to what an emergency is. Today is has been expanded to include mental health issues too. Do not feel bad seeking help at any time as the job of the triage nurse is to assess the situations on a case by case basis and arrange care accordingly. It is better to have your mother there with you so she knows if your ok or not because she would be worried about her girl ya know =), that's what parents do. They worry about their children and take care of them as best they know how. I can see that you do need the help, I would also ask you to go right now and talk to your mom. The sooner you tell her the sooner you can get some help for your problems. don't worry, it will be alright. Trust your mom.. Take Care Patrick

Dating An Er Doctor

Answer 4

Hi, I never had dated a doctor, but I have a brother who's a surgical doctor. It is true that being a doctor is very busy, even in the middle of night, when emergency calls, he must go straight away..., My brother goes to work at 8 am and (supposedly) comes home at 5 pm, but beacuse of his busy time with patients, he arrives home at 9 pm. Sometimes he needs to go at 12 am or on the weekends to check his patients, especially when there's complication with the patient. He's married and his wife feels OK about it.

My father is a dentist, but he's not as busy as my brother because nobody's said that having a Toothache is an emergency, right? . So it's normal for an emergency room doctor for not having much time for leisure...

As long as your boyfriend loves and cares you, so don't worry about meeting him just once a week, soon you will be accustomed with it, just keep up your communication with him, so will never have unsolved fighting.

Good luck with your relationship!!

..Working as a doctor in the emergency dept. is often on a 12-hour 3-4 days rotation. Basically the required number of working hours is 37.5 hours. Some doctors work for a week so that they can have long breaks to be with family or go for pleasure or leisure.I hope you now have an idea if a doctor dating you is in a rush presumably after work. However its not all work my dear..so better get hold of the work schedule or wake up and see what is really going on with his time..

Answer 6

emergency doctor or no emergency doctor they have certain amount of hours for work. if he works night shift he stays 1 day (or 2 days in some) at home, if he makes day shift it is just 8 hours, he is free after. and as all normal people he has days off. so i say he just hasn't time for u particularly

Answer 7

I think he is being truthful. He is probabaly very busy. His schedule probably changes all the time. I don't think he has alot of time to see other girls. I think you might want to date other people besides him. If you like the doctor, make sure you can squeeze him in. Listen to your instinct.

Answer 8

Well, Doctor is not a robot. So, I am sure he will have the time if he willing to arrange it, even if he's on call. Emergency doctors are on call, 24/7 !

Answer 9

is not about a doctor, but its individual matter, every man can be good or bad. So its depends on your feeling, how much you like him,..and how much he likes you, in your case this man can be true that he is so busy, but also can be just say a bullshit,,
but for me, if he said wanted me to date with another, and my feeling is just not so big, so i will get over him,if i have deeply feeling on him, i will try my best to know his feeling. You can feel it, feel it with your heart and thinking with your mind, use both,..
and you will know what you should do,..

Answer 10

if he don,t have time don,t bover he could make a bit of time although they are very overworked some do work 72 hours a week, i would not even get time to make a drink if i had that life.
