I seriously broke up with a girl because of this one thing. She was great everywhere else. I found her gorgeous. She was smart. She loved me. She wanted to be around me all the time…but she would not stop interrupting me when I was working. It was sooooo distracting. We had multiple conversations about it over 1-2 months. I finally had to decide that I either drop out of grad school or I break up with her. I might have chosen wrong tho, cause I’m not getting any action lately. At least I can tell the girls that I am a doctor while they walk away from me.

You did the right thing. 100% ‘Not respecting my focus time’ would be a dealbreaker for me, too.
thank you for the validation! you guys are my people ❤️
