My girlfriend is a neurologist and I'm a software engineer. While both of our professions tend to marry within their communities, we got together because of a shared interest in brains. My day job involves artificial neural networks, so there's a lot of matches there.

One thing that is particularly nice is that I can discuss my work with her and vice versa, so she's actually been really helpful with answering some tough questions, it makes for an interesting dynamic.

Oh, and she earns twice what I do, it's crazy how much money neurologists make.
