[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Guys, the original poster buried the lead. She has chronic pain issues stemming from an injury. That may be what she’s referring to when she said she needs a break. Speaking of someone who was once in a similar position, taking a few months to give my body a break was very helpful. I went to physical therapy, etc. That might be what she’s talking about. For example, if it’s a wrist injury or a back or neck injury, it could be hard for her to sit at a desk or computer all day long.

It is of course ridiculous usually not to work or be in school in the situation. But it sounds like she might be struggling with the health issue and that changes the analysis.[/quote]

OP here. She was diagnosed with degenerative disc disease in her neck and nerve entrapment. She also has lower back issues from the same issue in her spine.

She goes to therapy herself and gets steroids shots.

She’s a physical therapist. [/quote]

What does she plan to study? Has she applied or been accepted?

If she is in the beginning stages and hasn’t taken any entrance exams or started applying, this would be a huge red flag.

At the same time, having chronic back pain is a legitimate reason for wanting and needing a break from doing physical work. It really depends on the level of pain. My friend had such severe pain that she couldn’t function and perform at a desk job. She is married with 2 kids and a husband who travels and makes a lot of money. She took a break.

When I was dating Dh, I didn’t like my job. Like normal people, I stopped working after I got a new job.

She is either in severe pain or she is ruining a potential marriage to you.

I had a friend who hated her job and quit after she got married. They were planning to have a baby. The baby never came and they were beginning to go to an IVF specialist and the guy decided he wanted a divorce. Women really shouldn’t stop working until after they have kids. Most men don’t want just a housewife with no kids.[/quote]
