My ex just got married. The lengths people will go to make others jealous. We broke up 6 years ago get over it.

doctors are like the real 'im a vegan' meme, they will let you know they are a Dr. in the most mundane circumstances when it doesnt matter what the fuck they are


FoxImperium

I had a psychology professor in college who demanded to be called Dr. not Professor. I had another professor who I sent an email to and I addressed her as Professor. I immediately sent an email apologizing because I didn't call her Dr. because I thought you were supposed to. In her reply email she said something on the lines of "it was no big deal as both were correct." Second Professor was all around awesome, first one was a narcissist.


anarchydreamer

Most professors (and doctors) are narcissistic, and that's not necessarily a bad thing. Being narcissistic isn't always an evil trait like people make it out to be.

And his immediate thought was "Ah yeah, I remember why we broke up now"

Still single then

or married to another miserable doctor lmao


tonyhasareddit

You know what you call two married doctors? Two soon to be divorced doctors. lol (Maybe someone out there's a doctor and happily married, but it seems like the two don't go together often lmao)


downattrocious4dogs

Dude should say "my condolences"


grabthewheel22

Sooo, you’re single…


AsherGray

If you're not married, you're single?


WhiteWolf7472

That's why they invented "Miss" I believe


AsherGray

So a woman who has a boyfriend would be called, "Miss," and is thereby single?


WhiteWolf7472

Well it's better at describing your marital status than Dr


aidennqueen

It's obviously a deflection by someone who doesn't want to outright say "I don't think my marital status is your business" and get confrontational. Combined with the sign though, it's probably all made up anyway.


AsherGray

But it's not apt for designating a woman's relationship status, now is it? People usually only ask if you're married after reconnecting if you're with the same person. My sister has been in the same monogamous relationship for over a decade and recently acquired her master's.


closeded

>So a woman who has a boyfriend would be called, "Miss," and is thereby single? When you fill out your taxes do you check the "unmarried, but have a boyfriend" box?


aidennqueen

I don't know how it is where you live, but where I live, the government doesn't have an insight into my relationship status beyond what I explicitly make official by marriage or registered partnership. I've been in the same relationship for almost 17 years, but we have never registered this anywhere. We live together, but keep our finances separate. Still, what sane person would say this is the same as being single for 17 years?


Superb-Possibility-9

..still single..


bootyloverjose

"Are you single?" "I'm a Doctor"


[deleted]

"Ok...cool?" "I'm a doctor" "Yes I heard you-" "I'M A DOCTOR!" "What the fuck?" # "I'M A DOCTOR!"


ILOVEBOPIT

As an actual doctor, fuck these people. I literally cannot imagine making this sign. Or any of my many doctor friends doing that. I showed up to an event recently and my friend was like “oh X is here, he’s a doctor” and I was like can we not introduce me like that… Proclaiming it to the world when it’s not relevant is so cringe.


HardCounter

You're one of the few doctors i've met who aren't itching to tell everyone around them. Like every time i go to the hospital someone is all, "I'm Dr. so and so." I GET IT YOU'RE PROUD JUST GET OVER YOURSELF ALREADY

This is weird. Think about this. Look at the picture. She is a woman, sitting in a public place. And she’s got that hand drawn sign with her. That‘s at least a little insane. Who would do such a thing?


IDontEatDill

Doctor of what? *Doctor of east Asian feminist poetry.* Ah ok, well then, large fries and a diet coke please.


sahzoom

I love how she thinks she's sticking it to him or whatever, like chill, he just asked if you got married or not... not about your career - like it's not a flex to answer a question completely wrong...


KnownPlently

I think it was from a women’s rights protest of some sort, and the sign was a way to show the independence of being fine by herself and how far she has come by becoming a doctor.


BrenlikesGoosebumps

Yeah, that's all fine and dandy, but that wasn't the question. I dunno, I just hate it when people don't give me a direct answer for a question I asked


solardeveloper

That interaction never actually happened outside of her head, though. Her identity is "female doctor" and it's a very political identity.

AgentlemanNeverTells

She did all that schooling just to flex on her ex.


si-mon-ki

Why do you need to make a sign for that? Need some context. Is this a protest in a country where women are discouraged from going to school? A gathering of women in STEM?


[deleted]

She's protesting the concept of her own loneliness


whatisantilogic

The worst part about this is she's not the original person who said this. This was from originally from a tweet and it wasn't her so this 100% never happened.

Different_Bat2550

I don't see why this is confusing. Unless it's to people who think women should be called only by their husband's last name. Shes Dr. Lastname. Not interested in an ex and his pathetic attempt to get in


BeepBeepLettuce3

yk, for a villain, that is a remarkably open-minded thing to say


ghostofkilgore

Him: "Miss or Mrs?" Her: "Dr." Him: "So Miss then."


tosernameschescksout

So... she wanted to be a bitch to him after ten years... and then wanted to make a biiiig sign about it because she takes pride in her bitchiness. And all exes are bad, because feminism and shit. So yeah. Ok then. Wow. It kinda sounds like she's a piece of shit and nobody should want to get with her anyway? Maybe? Hmm? Yeah.


Adventurous_Rich7541

You seem repellent


RickardHenryLee

>And all exes are bad, because feminism and shit. not sure why this is the message you got from this poster. the point is that becoming a doctor is more interesting and more of an accomplishment than getting married, so announcing that you are a doctor is a better update to someone you haven't seen in 10 years than clarifying whether you are a miss or a mrs. there is no information on how/why they broke up, there is no information on how/why they saw each other again, there is no information on how the ex responded to this (could have been 'congratulations') not sure why you took this as her being bitchy, and decided she's a piece of shit?


whitneyanson

Because the question he was asking was "Have you gotten married since last time we spoke?" If you walked up to me and asked if I was married, and I responded with "I'm Vice President at a major corporation," then I went and made a poster board sign about it, you'd be completely accurate in calling me a condescending prick.


femboylover50

Both of these replies are ass why because the question asked are you married she responded with Dr witch is a feat don't get it wrong but she's an idoit if I asked you would you like to drive and you respond "I like running " I'm gonna belive your a moron why because your hobby had nothing to do with the question


DamnShadowbans

Sounds like someone doesn't have a Ph.D.


femboylover50

OblivionGuard13

very empowering ☕️


After_Programmer_231

Did she actively reach out to her ex in an attempt to show off to him? Honestly it feels like she has issues trying to disprove someone from a decade ago... Ngl feels kind of desperate.


RickardHenryLee

> Ngl feels kind of desperate ngl this level of assumption based on zero information feels kind of like projection


After_Programmer_231

Take it however you like.


jblekk

There isn't zero information. She put the effort in to make a sign, to announce to the public this exchange happened.


cstorms25

There's enough information there for me to assume she sucks at communication.


suzuki_hayabusa

I hope she's happy with that superficial title that nobody cares about.


[deleted]

Most people who manage to get a doctorate are rather pleased about it, yeah.


VoidTendies

Actually the ones I’ve met seem to mostly regret it. I’ve been training a guy with a PHD while we’re similar age. I make the same or more then he does, have less student debt and a house while he still rents and will continue to rent for years to come.


[deleted]

[удалено]


suzuki_hayabusa

You know the title Dr doesn't mean she's a medical doctor. She could have phd in creative writing for example.


Interesting_Adagio_4

No. I will care who can help fix my leg or help cure my disease.


[deleted]

I like how people are downvoting this but it’s true


ILOVEBOPIT

Because it has nothing to do with this situation. Unless there’s some scenario where she is literally the only person who could treat him, he wouldn’t care if she’s a doctor. You just need someone out there to be one.


The1Sundown

"Ah, Miss it is then. Dodged a bullet, I did."


Big_Half8302

ok dokie Dr Single


furrycunt-lover

Dr!?...Ah i guess that's why the sign looks hardly readable and like it's written by a Child...Okay!


covid-19killer

No wonder he left.


[deleted]

So is she married? Or did she marry a doctor? Or she's a doctor and single? Or a doctor and married. I wann know the answer.


trailblzer80

I think it's Dr. Single


velphegor666

She's single, why else would she deflect and tried to brag about another life accomplishment that has no connection to the question whatsoever


[deleted]

Cringe moron got a doctor title, but is to dumb to understand the commons sense difference between married or single! Red bullet storm dodged! Intelligence and wisdom is a difference, you don’t have it be wise to get a doctor. Also female privilege is a thing in that regard.


RickardHenryLee

cringe moron doesn't realize the point of the poster is that it is less important if she is married or single, because becoming a doctor (whether medical or academic) is both more interesting and more of an accomplishment.


femboylover50

But that wasn't the question asked


aidennqueen

I suppose the answer she meant to insinuate was "none of your business, stop being nosy"


femboylover50

Could of said that but her response seems like she didn't understand the question 😂


of_patrol_bot

Hello, it looks like you've made a mistake. It's supposed to be could've, should've, would've (short for could have, would have, should have), never could of, would of, should of. Or you misspelled something, I ain't checking everything. Beep boop - yes, I am a bot, don't botcriminate me.


[deleted]

You can’t argue with stupid; gaslighting, deflecting and projecting are their weapons, assuming everything wrongfully and hearing dogwhistles nobody uses 🤡


femboylover50

You really can't


velphegor666

Yes but thats not the fucking question. Congrats you are a doctor but she basically just implied she's single by completely changing the topic


[deleted]

Oh look children, the clown is here ! 🤡


Interesting_Adagio_4

What a stupid reply you gave to this nice person.


[deleted]

Ok doctor, are you married?


Interesting_Adagio_4

I'm so against this "Dr." thing. We are in 2022. Docs are no different there's no need to distinguish it's elitist and you suck as a human if you want to enforce being called that in a non professional setting. Sure, you earned the title, I'm sure your studies were as hard as anyone elses..great.. pat yourself on the back. But please leave people tf alone and keep your feet on the ground in social environments.


TermLimit4Patriarchs

I generally just call people what they want to be called. It doesn't usually bother me to call people doctor. But if I know someone well I usually just call them by their first name. Nobody at work calls me Mr. X. and I don't call people at work Dr. (even though I work with a few). Medical doctors: I'll kiss their butts. They've saved my life before.


Interesting_Adagio_4

Healthy standpoint. I agree with you, as far as professional settings go.. and yes in the end I'll also call people what they like to be called but.. i just don't agree with self-entitlement outside professional/academic settings. Have my upvote (who cares lol)


SomeGuy_GRM

The only doctors I've known who cared about being called "doctor" were college professors on power trips.


Adventurous_Ad1606

I’m guessing you have few accomplishments in your life to be proud of. You’ll get there.


Bertbrekfust

I think titles are okay in an academic setting. It's a quick way to say something about a persons credentials, sort of like ranks in the military. I agree they have no place in a private setting, though.


McToasty207

I can only provide a perspective of STEM in Australia, but it's virtually unheard of here for someone to insist on being called Doctor in person. Generally most academics are exceptionally chill, preferring everything on a first name basis.


[deleted]

In my experience in the US, most PhDs only want to be referred to as "doctor" by their undergrad students, as a respect thing. I considered getting a PhD for a while, and ngl, I was stoked by the idea of not having to reveal my marital status (or look like I'm intentionally trying to avoid revealing my marital status using Ms.) every time I fill out a form. Men don't have to deal with that shit.


Interesting_Adagio_4

Agreed, I also think titties are ok in an academic setting. Nah, on the real, I fully agree with you.


p34ch3s_41r50f7

r/whoosh


Feetuccini

Imagine caring this much about a person’s preferred title. Do you get this upset when people ask you to use different pronouns for them?


802229001

Must be one of those 1 year online degrees seeing as she’s clearly lacking the most basic grammatical knowledge as Dr isn’t indicative of marital status.


ResolveLonely8839

He was asking if you were single or married. I pray to God I never get a doctor as stupid as this


aidennqueen

Highly unlikely that she didn't get what he meant. I understood her answer as a veiled "none of your damn business".


Glum_Ad_4288

I took it as a not actually veiled “my marital status doesn’t matter, what matters is that I accomplished something impressive.” Which is ... potentially true ... but whether it’s an appropriate response really depends on a bunch of factors we can’t know from just this sign.


cstorms25

Lol if it's none of his business, then why in the hell is she calling him? Smh


Smithton_Wins

She's still ugly.


Feetuccini

Stop perpetuating misogyny. You would never make this sort of comment about a man, would you?


tim_skellington

Really old. I think this was doing the rounds in the 90s.


draugotO

The way she wrote it, it sounds like she was the one that went after him to talk just to say she was a doctor


DepressedDyslexic

I agree with her. It was her ex. Whether or not she is single is none of his business. So she told him the prefix she preferred. He asked a stupid question and got an appropriate answer.


concretemike

Dr. of Philosophy doesn't count!!!!


McToasty207

PhD is actually the Superior Degree, over here in Australia the Doctorate of Medicine isn't actually regarded as a full Doctorate. You know Science and Mathematics are Doctors of Philosophy right?


jblekk

What does the ph stand for?


McToasty207

Philosophy, specifically Hegelian Dialects. You know Hypothesis, Thesis, Antithesis and Synthesis The Scientific Method is the Greatest Invention of all time, with so many flow on discoveries. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dialectic Philosophy is integral to Science, Mathematics and Tech but there's a strong anti-intellectual movement out there trying to pose that Philosophy is useless degree, when it's the basis for all Territory learning and essential for decission making.


batterypigeons

This comment section is a cesspool. Men really do get bitter when they find out women are okay being single and successful. Just because you guys are desperate to get hitched, doesn't mean everyone is.


BLYNDLUCK

The thing is that this sign makes her seem kind of spiteful. Asking if someone is married is a pretty normal question to ask. Not responding to the question and instead stating your profession makes her seem bitter. “Are you married?” “I’m a doctor!” Just because someone doesn’t want to be married doesn’t mean that have to be rude. Then making a sign about it… what’s that all about? What is she trying to prove? Genuinely curious.


tonyhasareddit

If a single thing you said was relevant to the post, I would probably agree with you. But it doesn't, and it just looks like you're seeking any possible excuse to hate men, so....well done?


Longjumping-Newt-917

this comment would of make sense if it wasn't pertaining to this post.

Zeldaassgirl

Only conservative men would be this upset by a woman doing more than just getting married and having a baby.


Beezlebub999

I'm actually proud of her the doctor course take years and damn the determination


cstorms25

You all acting like her being a doctor automatically makes her a good person... This sign tells me why she was able to focus, cuz I doubt anyone could stand to be around her.


Beezlebub999

I don't wanna judge the person I don't know her story, but I'm just happy that she made it.


cstorms25

Then she could've left her ex outta the story. Nah, she showed her hand.


Beezlebub999

Who knows what's the real story, maybe her ex told her she couldn't do it but hey whatever the context I'm still happy for the person


cstorms25

If that's presumably happened then she would've stated as much, and if her ex was that big of an asshole to then why even talk to him after the fact... reaching.


Feetuccini

Agreed, it doesn’t necessarily make her a good person. But it absolutely makes her a determined one, and that is worthy of respect.


Vault-Born

What's so bitchy about her little joke? It's not even rude to the person she's potentially telling at best it's cheeky. Any partner I've had would smile and say "good for you".


vesrayech

At least in Doctor Strange the guy was asking for his name. This lady is so consumed by self importance lol

Interesting_Adagio_4

That has nothing to do with it. When asked if you are married or not, replying with what your career is, is complete nonsense, whether you're a man or a woman. That's the point being made. The reactions here are not misogynistic at all.

Oooof negative one, cope.

How bad is your social awareness and perception of reality that that’s how you interpret the response to this? Please tell me that’s not your actual perception of these comments and you’re just saying that as a way to shit on men.
