[quote=Anonymous]Not sure if the OP is still checking this thread. I understand your parental concern. You don't want your daughter to put her hopes on a man who can't or won't reciprocate. Even if he is financially compensating her for the flights, it doesn't make up for the logistical burden she's dealing with. She probably isn't making as many friends in her hometown either because of the time she's investing in this relationship. Long-distance can work if you have an end date, but it's hard it to keep it going indefinitely especially with a field as demanding as medicine. If she thinks his time is limited now, just wait until residency. If they've been dating exclusively for over a year, it might be time to talk about moving in if she can get a job in that city. This will be her show of good faith in this relationship. If he expects her to move again for residency, he needs to put a ring on it. She's got her own career, friends, and family and he can't expect her to put everything on the line for him time and time again. Most med students and residents understand this.[/quote]
