For the past year i decided to become a doctor. but i think the reason that i want to be one is because the guy i love is going to be a doctor( which by the way does not know i have feelings for him). I really have passion for medicine and i know i could really be a good doctor. Do you think i want to be a doctor because of him? or because i really want to? im afraid if i decide ill regret my decision later. please help. Reply to this Question

Go to a doctor's surgery or hospital and ask if you can follow one of their medics for the day.
You will learn a lot about how it all works and if after a week if you can't stand the blood / poo / stupid people / death then you know you don't want it.
If that happens then think about what it is about the role that attracted you.
I wanted to be a doctor for a while because I wanted to meet different people every day and react to things and have an exciting job. I learned very fast that it wasn't for me, but I now work in radio news and get to do all of the above but without having to study so much or deal with drunken bleeding people.
Good Luck!! xx
