We have been married 17 years, have a gorgeous 8 year old boy and share a wonderful life together. Trust your instincts and it doesn't hurt to hear your parents opinion as well... old fashioned I know but they are wise! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-nothing-exciting-fashion-wise-but-new-boy#post-408685 Mon, 22 Aug 2011 06:38:10 +0000 yublocka 408685@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with ignoring the "not good enough for you" advice. Only you can decide that. And personally I can't think of anything worse than being in a relationship with another doc. Being able to get away from work is a good thing!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-nothing-exciting-fashion-wise-but-new-boy#post-408643 Sun, 21 Aug 2011 23:38:04 +0000 Jenava 408643@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was just reading in an article that sometimes it actually works out better for the relationship if both parties are not in high-stress/status positions, anyway. How would it work out if you were both docs? Just something to ponder... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-nothing-exciting-fashion-wise-but-new-boy#post-408563 Sun, 21 Aug 2011 16:37:03 +0000 Carole 408563@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Amazing that with a schedule like yours you have time to organize a garage sale and your home and date too! I'm impressed, good luck with the new beau! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-nothing-exciting-fashion-wise-but-new-boy#post-408557 Sun, 21 Aug 2011 16:06:41 +0000 lyn* 408557@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I figure if I still call myself a girl, he can be a boy? :p </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-nothing-exciting-fashion-wise-but-new-boy#post-408495 Sun, 21 Aug 2011 04:55:47 +0000 san 408495@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a feeling that we should call a young man a man and not a boy. Do you? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-nothing-exciting-fashion-wise-but-new-boy#post-408480 Sun, 21 Aug 2011 02:34:04 +0000 Isabel 408480@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Doctor, cure thyself......from the aching body ; )</p> <p>I CAN.NOT agree more with the other ladies regarding the "boy". Unfortunately, we are a very status oriented society and that is often measured by a paycheck or position. Don't fall for it....fall for him ( IF HE IS GOOD TO YOU ). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-nothing-exciting-fashion-wise-but-new-boy#post-408357 Sat, 20 Aug 2011 19:53:28 +0000 Jonesy 408357@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have resolve of steel! New fella sounds promising; I agree about not listening to your well-meaning-but-ultimately-not-their-concern friends :). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-nothing-exciting-fashion-wise-but-new-boy#post-408289 Sat, 20 Aug 2011 16:44:07 +0000 DressLover 408289@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>New boy?! BBQ! Just kidding. ;)</p> <p>And don't listen to your friends; they don't know what you need. After all, they are the ones who told you to dress more slovenly. Not to sound like a feel-good family comedy, but it is true that real friends will want you to be with someone who treats you well and makes you happy - not someone with a big paycheck. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-nothing-exciting-fashion-wise-but-new-boy#post-408209 Sat, 20 Aug 2011 14:25:02 +0000 Suz 408209@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay on two counts, Lyn! Agree with Rae; the best boy is the one who treats you well. Oh....and the one you can laugh with. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-nothing-exciting-fashion-wise-but-new-boy#post-408153 Sat, 20 Aug 2011 11:40:49 +0000 Anonymous 408153@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hey, congrats for the new romance. Who cares what others say about you two? It's important there's real passion between you and your new lover.<br /> Also, trapped in a mall and not breaking a shopping ban, well that's an accomplishment. Go you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-nothing-exciting-fashion-wise-but-new-boy#post-408127 Sat, 20 Aug 2011 08:41:39 +0000 Sharon 408127@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Go, Lyn! And avoid the "you can do better" trap at all costs! If he is nice, kind and supportive of your aspirations then it doesn't matter if he earns less than you ( which is what is being implied, I think). I sometimes joke with my sons that there is only room for one prima donna in a relationship, and then I tell my husband that the position is taken. LOL </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-nothing-exciting-fashion-wise-but-new-boy#post-408078 Sat, 20 Aug 2011 04:21:59 +0000 AJ 408078@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My "nice boy" and I celebrated our 19th wedding anniversary this year! : ) </p> <p>Here's hoping you get more insight into new boy soon!</p> <p>I'm very impressed with your will power while at the mall! Go Lyn! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-nothing-exciting-fashion-wise-but-new-boy#post-408069 Sat, 20 Aug 2011 04:07:23 +0000 rae 408069@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Kyle said! The best guy is the one who treats you the best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-nothing-exciting-fashion-wise-but-new-boy#post-408043 Sat, 20 Aug 2011 03:00:25 +0000 Kyle 408043@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Better is in the eye of the beholder. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-nothing-exciting-fashion-wise-but-new-boy#post-408039 Sat, 20 Aug 2011 02:53:39 +0000 Transcona Shannon 408039@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, I'm impressed...trapped in a mall and still stuck to SYC??? That's dedication!!! New boy sounds nice - and nice counts. My friends (and family too) thought I could do better when I started with my "new boy" - now we've been married 24 years!!! Showed them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-nothing-exciting-fashion-wise-but-new-boy#post-408015 Sat, 20 Aug 2011 02:35:15 +0000 Sona 408015@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lyn- love your $3 buy. wait until the rotation is done to decide about the new boy. I was madly in love with a male ER nurse during my ER rotation but waited. and then nothing happened. well he got married- to another nurse.<br /> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-nothing-exciting-fashion-wise-but-new-boy#post-408012 Sat, 20 Aug 2011 02:33:56 +0000 Sveta 408012@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I am waiting for a sequel on a new boy.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-nothing-exciting-fashion-wise-but-new-boy#post-408007 Sat, 20 Aug 2011 02:32:26 +0000 san 408007@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aww, young love. At this point I'm sure you're interested in friendship and not how well you can do, even though it is nice to have friends who watch out for you. When you tell them you're engaged then they can start fussing over if he's good enough. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-nothing-exciting-fashion-wise-but-new-boy#post-408005 Sat, 20 Aug 2011 02:31:38 +0000 Anonymous 408005@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lyn, I love reading your posts. They always make me smile! : ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-nothing-exciting-fashion-wise-but-new-boy#post-407999 Sat, 20 Aug 2011 02:25:12 +0000 lyn* 407999@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Dear YLF,</p> <p>Busy as heck week - you think that everyone in the whole city has broken something and we are going to help them fix it! It's amazing some of the stuff they can do in the operation room, but man, my legs/arms/back are killing me. How ironic, eh?</p> <p>This week I've been swamped with The Hospital and trying to get rid of the clutter in my home. A lot of it is sold and is waiting to be picked up by perspective owners; there was much success at the garage sale, and a bunch of Med 1, 2 and 3 textbooks ready to be sold!</p> <p>There is a new boy.... potentially. I will probably have to stake this out and wait until the end of my rotation. He's not a doctor or a medical student; but is one of our support staff. My friends think I can do better, but I think he's pretty nice so far. We'll see once we work with him more </p> <p>I'm hoping for a quiet weekend (on call) ... haha, yeah right.</p> <p>Thought you'd like an update,<br /> Much love,<br /> Lyn</p> <p>PS: I've been SYC good. Picked up a pretty bracelet for $3 yesterday at the mall and a bunch of camis (underwear, right? lol) - I was trapped there because of a traffic accident which closed a portion of the road to my house last night! I thought I'd break SYC for sure! </p>
