ok serious reply now.. 
Are you sure you are not mistakenly taking your desire to explore this new tertiary (relationship with opposite sex) as your readiness? Feeling ready is one thing, and being ready is entirely different field. Have you thought it through? I mean where you see yourself in 5 years from now? being married and practicing as general physician or persuing your career beyond that and going one step ahead on social ladder as you are now? Believe me, if you have plans to be more than a GP then you are not ready for MARRIAGE yet.
