Any of you guys married nursing students? I am, and there are some "being surrounded by females" issues to deal with...My wife has been great the whole way through, but she follows me so closely now that it is driving me crazy!...How is it for you?

Specializes in Psychiatry.

In my next life I will be single in nursing school. It was awful. Hundred-something students, 10:1-ish ratio, each girl better looking than the next. I was altogether too busy and stressed out for my wife to be worried about me, despite the fact that it was a non-issue anyway. For whatever reason, the core group of people I hung out with were also the ones I would have chosen out a Bunny Ranch lineup. These beautiful, intelligent women and girls were the only reason I started a Facebook account. It's been a few years, and I don't keep in touch with anyone, but if I were single I'm certain I would have actively stalked and/or impregnated one or two by now. Not that it matters, but I look much younger than my age (38), and am not a ghoul, and am fairly flirtatious by nature. I was forced to give and receive a few massages in-between lectures; but other than that, again, regardless of the temptation or your ability to resist it, good luck finding the time. That being said, there was a pair of married people who decided to find the time together. It was good gossip and all for people who cared, but I'm pretty sure it didn't end well and there were children involved. No thanks. Also, depending on where you work, some of these ladies (nurses, techs, etc.) could care less that you're married and would like to keep it that way. Enjoy your time in nursing school and the bloated ratio - it was memorable - like a garden of gorgeous, motivated women.

I've been married for almost 7 years now...the wife and I have an awesome relationship. We have great communication and we connect well on all levels mentally, spiritually, physically etc. She supports me in clinicals 100% but that being said, even though she trusts me and she "jokes" about it, I know she has concerns about me going into a female dominated field. I'm not looking but she works in the medical field as well and knows first hand about the hook ups and shenannigans that go on in hospitals. All comes down to trust and communication...well that and being able to keep it in your pants...lol.

I'm not married but engaged. We've been living together for five years. She's not worried, and she really has no reason to be. I'm not interested in anyone else and she knows it.

Having said that, there are some really lovely ladies in my nursing program. ;-)

I haven't started nursing school yet, but I can honestly say that is the last thing on my wife's mind at this point. We are too busy negotiating on whether to do an ADN or a BSN.

do the bsn route, the pre-requisites are virtually the same for most schools, it beats going back or doing it online later, cheaper, and most hospitals WANT BSN for the magnet status. The pros out weigh the cons

Instead of hand shakes, do a high five and show off your ring if your worried. that will fix it really quick. Trust me you won't have any problems unless you look for them.

I'm married and work around women all day. My wife urged to enter this field and so far I've loved it. Being the only guy, there are comments make about me being desirable but that goes in one hear out the other. Even with an attractive woman, I'm able to pump the brakes and remember what I have at home. While there are always gonna be attractive women around nursing, I can honestly say that I'm an extremely lucky guy because my wife is pretty damn hot and mostly importantly cool as ****! Ultimately, my mantra is "there is nothing these women can offer me that my wife is not."

My wife and I got into nursing school during the same semester, so we've gone through our clinicals and classes together. It's been a pretty great experience, she's a very dependable study partner!

I know this is an old thread... but how has it been over the years? Did the trust get better? Going through the same things with my fiancé now and will be starting nursing school next year
