Resident Physician vs Physician on dating profile?
I’m a resident physician in a specialty with very humane hours, basically 8–5 M–F. I’m not working 90 hours a week like some colleagues. Getting back on hinge after a LTR ended last year.
I don’t plan to list “healthcare” as my job title. Online dating is already hard enough, and I don’t like the vagueness of “healthcare worker.”
Wondering whether to list physician or resident physician. “Resident physician” is most accurate, but many will assume terrible hours and years of limited availability. That could lead to automatic left swipes.
Listing “physician” is also accurate. I graduated med school, I’m a doctor, just haven't fully finished my training. The downside is people might assume I’ve finished residency, earn a high salary, or can move anywhere when that isn't the case yet.
Some people worry that listing physician attracts people interested mainly in money, but I feel confident I can weed those people out. I’m also very selective about who I date seriously. I’d also prefer to date other educated/successful people.
I’m not trying to mislead anyone, but I also don’t want to limit matches. Any thoughts? I’m a man dating women, early 30s, looking for something serious but open to casual in meantime (although I'm just putting long term relationship on my profile), in a major US city
