Someone putting doctor on their tinder/internet dating profile... Bit cringe?

Why? It's the job isn't it?

Bearasarahus · 10/08/2016 22:52

If they are a doctor obviously! Blush

Unless it's Dr Lurve...Grin

Bearasarahus · 10/08/2016 22:53

In their bio though... So for example on tinder it just has a one line bio, a guy has just written "doctor" in his Confused

Perhaps they've got a PhD in lovemaking - could be useful to know. If medical doctor, could be useful to have around.

Bearasarahus · 10/08/2016 22:55

Haha yes a medical doctor. I just think it's playing into the whole all women love doctors scenario a bit?!

Some people love a doctor so maybe that's all they need to put!!!

Bearasarahus · 10/08/2016 22:57

It just suggests your job defines you a bit though doesn't it? Or am I overthinking Blush

It works for me Smile

WorraLiberty · 10/08/2016 22:57

I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that 'Doctor' and 'Pilot' were the two biggest lies on Tinder, when it came to stating an occupation.

acasualobserver · 10/08/2016 22:58

Could actually be a good way of getting a GP appointment at a time to suit you.

ImperialBlether · 10/08/2016 22:58

I'd bet my house he was a gynaecologist!

Bearasarahus · 10/08/2016 23:14

Loll yes okay fingers crossed we match then because it's bloody hard round here to get a gp appt!

That might be the biggest thing in their life and what they spend most of their time doing. If you don't like, spin on. I like doctors Grin YABU

Nannawifeofbaldr · 11/08/2016 01:54

Or it could just mean that being a doctor is a huge part of his life. If he works in a hospital that that might mean shift working and weekend work. It's not an unreasonable thing to tell a prospective partner.

As an aside I do know a woman who met her pilot DH via OLD...

toffeeboffin · 11/08/2016 01:55

Ask him what his diagnosis is...

i8sum314 · 11/08/2016 02:06

Worst on line date ever with a pilot.
2nd worst with a guy who had a phd. Think he had asbergers too. But the pilot was way worse.
