Why do most healthcare professionals have failed relationships?

I mainly attribute healthcare systems as the cause, for having medics work long unpredictable hours, offering no relief from emotional burnout and making medics unable to get personal time even if they desire. It also comes down to couples not having honest conversations before marriage, and planning reasonable adjustments for their life ahead.

I am not good at this :sweat_smile:

I don’t think these things happen.I don’t even experience it.
It may happen due to giving less time to your partner.

I believe medicos see everything with care because we believe in treating patients and non medico do care but they don’t know how to cure a patient and they think medico have to give us time

Most healthcare professionals have failed relationships because their jobs are very stressful, with long working hours and little personal time. This makes it hard to give time, attention, and emotional support to their partners, leading to misunderstandings and distance in relationships.

Is it true?

It usually happens because both come from very different lifestyles. Medicos often have hectic schedules, night shifts, and a lot of mental pressure, while non-medicos may not fully understand that kind of routine.

This gap in understanding and time availability can lead to communication issues, expectations, and emotional distance. It’s not that it can’t work, but it needs a lot of patience, maturity, and mutual respect from both sides to handle the differences.

Yes ,Medico’s job is very tough and they have a very busy schedule and therefore, they don’t give proper time for their personal life which I think non medicos can’t understand

Medical person give more time to their profession as it demands more time and more focus. Non medical person don’t understand that point.

It’s all about mutual understanding and seriousness about their relationship and it also depends on the opposite person where he or she should understand the time importance,the stress ,small efforts and being patience along with love

It depends on individuals; there cannot be a generalized statement as you mention, and there is no evidence to support it. Since HCPs often prefer to marry within the same profession, this might be seen as a large number, but when we normalize the difference between the groups, it may not be as significant.

Extended work hours and overnight shifts are common among healthcare workers that can drain both time and energy, making it difficult to invest in a relationship.
