Had a weird experience shadowing a Doc today...

I went to shadow a Doctor today at a local E.R. to try to see if med-school was for me (I already have a bachelors degree but am considering going back). The doctor I was shadowing seemed pretty cool, but after a few hours he took me aside and had a conversation with me that went like this:

Doctor: "Hey man, can I ask you something?"

Me: "Sure"

Doctor: "Do you have a girlfriend, or a wife?"

Me: "Yes, I do."

Doctor: "And do you like her? Do you like spending time with her?"

Me: (feel weirded out) "Uhm, yes, I do."

Doctor: "Do yourself a favor and enjoy your life how it is now. Don't pursue medical school. I was in your exact shoes about 20 years ago, I had a fiance who I spent every minute of the day with and it felt magical. We just got divorced last year. This is not the life for someone who wants to live a good life."

And then he just walked away. Of course I'm paraphrasing a little bit, but the last line stuck with me. I shadowed for a bit more after we continued like nothing happened, but that's been stuck with me for the rest of the day now.
