My husband is about to begin med school. We've been married 4 years and have 2 kids. Our marriage is strong but med school can cause a lot of damage to any relationship. We've both read His Needs, Her Needs but want some real life advice. Our only real problem is openness on his part in reference to past relationships and current women who pursue him. Any insight, suggestions, experiences or thoughts would be appreciated.<br><p>[This message has been edited by Susie K (edited 01-29-99).]

Hi<p>I'm a first year medical student. What i can say about medical school is that it's stressful. There's a lot of material to learn and little time to do it. That will be one of your husbands chief problems.<p>The his needs, her needs book is a good start. emphasize your quality time together, with stress relieving (fun, exercise) activities that you both enjoy. Include your children when you can.<p>Your husband may find it difficult to "find the time" to do things. IT will be incredibly hard to manage. But, it's certainly possible.<br>You should spend some time together discussing time management, to let your husband spend time with studies, you, the children, and with himself. A time management book/workshop might prove useful.<p>i hope this was useful<br>good luck!
