That's awesome man. We were 5 months in and I knew she was a catch, but my previous 6 year long-distance almost marriage has made me realize that I don't want the distance anymore. I think if we were to have dated throughout med school things would be different, but I admire your dedication and that is an amazing and special thing to have

Thanks for the words and good luck to you too - I see that you've made your decision about what to do about your (now ex) girlfriend.

And honestly, if I had known my girlfriend only for 5 months before we became long distance, it would've been much tougher to keep that relationship going. 5 months isn't very much time to build something lasting, so the temptation would be that much stronger.

Would I have called it quits? Not sure - even though the temptation would've been greater, none of the women I had met held a candle to my girlfriend in presentation, professionalism and, frankly, style.

I'm also 6'4" and my girlfriend is 5'10", so I wasn't about to downgrade >_>
