  • Should I introduce myself to him...?

    I apologies for posting on M&D but I feel that this is a matured crowd and and can make a better input. So pls, my apologies, in advance.

    I work at a big fed government research institute, where there are many departments. I am currently single and there is a young man that I see every so often, while at work. We don't work together, he works in Urology. I work in the ICU. I saw him again a week ago and I asked a few co-workers who he was. I found out he was single and currently finishing up on his medical fellowship... I looked him up in my job's staff directly and got his full name, work email address/phone number and department info.

    Again, I only see him about once every random 3-5 months. I've always had a strict policy that I don't date people that I work with or that go to the same gym as me, since these are two very important places to me and I don't want to feel awkward going there, if things don't work out. I do like him (he seem respectful, quite and humble) and would like to introduce myself to him. Would it me crazy to send him a brief email saying hi (since I might not see him again for the next few months... and who knows when he will be done and leaving)... or will that be a good way to do it? What are your opinions and what do you suggest? Would that be a bit much?

    Thanks a lot, in advance.

  • Failed medical school finals..?

    Hello... my boyfriend just told me he failed his fina exam. He was supposed to graduate in two wks from medical school but he won't be able to do so now. He told me this in the middle of an argument over the phone, and he suddenly started crying and calling himself a looser... then he got off the phone. I've never seen him cry before. My question is this...

    1. How do I console him without being pushy?

    2. What are his options? Can he retake the finals or repeat the year? (this way I can use these options to encourage him not to give up, when I talk to him)

    Thanks in advance...?

  • Husband is on my last nerves!?

    I live in CA with my husband but I school in NY. School just ended so my husband is coming down to NY because we will be spending the holidays with my parents, who are also in NY...then we will both go back home afterwards to CA.

    Well..this morning when my husband was done packing and was about to leave the house for his flight, I was on the phone with him and I told him a few things I needed from the house. Now, I called him the night before for this, but he was barely coherent due to sleep. He called me back a few hrs later but I was also incoherent and half asleep by then. According to him, when he called, he asked me to text or email him what I needed so he could grab them on his way out in the morning. I don't remember him telling me this due to being half asleep when he called.

    My husband is a great guy but when he get's upsets, he starts to curse. He doesn't call me names but he curses...which I find VERY disrespectful/offensive and I have told him this on many occations. So this morning when I called him, he was upset that I waited until last min..and started cursing saying "well..I'm already Fu#$%^$ outside" "well if you FU^%$&^ listened to me last night, you should have texted me like I asked" Maybe he was right and also upset...but was it really necessary to curse?

    Trying to get an apology from him is like pulling teeth. I was really excited about him coming, until this incident and he won't even offer a sincere apology. He's avoiding my calls, until he get's here because he knows my family are here and so I won't make a scene, in front of them...

    Am I making a big deal out of it? should I ignore this and have a blast with him (there by accomodating this behaviour that has caused arguments in the past), or should I press the issue when he get's here (which usually ends up with him sulking, or a huge fight and silent treatment afterwards)
