Are you constantly checking out your neighbor's veins? How about when you are out shopping or on a vacation? Or, when viewing your favorite TV show? It's happened to quite a few people. Has anyone ever caught you in the act?? :yes:

Another nurse and I were side by side on lifecycles at the gym when a lean and muscular young man walked by. She whispered to me, "Look at those veins!".

He stopped and treated us to a posing display for several minutes. Because he assumed we were admiring his muscles we then did so.

Turns out he enters amateur body building contests.

A contractor we use frequently, (who thinks he's God's gift to women) has garden hose veins and every time I see them, I think, "Boy! Those are great veins!" He caught me once and thought I was thinking something and admiring him for entirely different reasons!:bag: Nope, just his veins. :nurse:

He still gives me strange looks sometimes!:wacky: I'm old enough to be his mother!! :roflmao:

I have been an RN for years and have started many Iv's. When I am talking to soomeone that is not what I look for. I am much more interested in the person in general if a female maybe her figure, etc. I do Iv therapy as required and I either get the vein or I dont.

I think you missed the point of the thread. This was meant to be humorous.

I realized I had an issue with veins when I watched an Angelina Jolie nude scene and noticed her great veins. Questioned my career choice and my sexuality for a few minutes.

That's me always looking at veins...... While as a student Venipuncture was an art I mastered instantly... Big veins get me excited!
