Lookback: Mid-August

Surprise him for his birthday

My boyfriend became less communicative after starting residency, prioritizing co-residents over me.

What I wish I knew
"His needs and limitations during residency"
If I could tell you one thing
"Communicate openly with your partner about your needs and boundaries"
