As a nursing student...

There are some hottie doctors I've seen at clinicals. I even befriended one of them and we have coffee now and again and he's single, but right now he's a new doctor, fresh out of school and boggled down in a half a million dollars in student loans, so love and romance is the last thing on his mind at the moment. We talk on the phone often we'll IM each other, etc.

But I've never heard any stories of a nurse hooking up with any doctors, but I've seen nurses hook up with other nurses.

Ha! Ha! Just like in all life there are real dream boats and some that are butt ugly!

That is for sure, but the one's that really crack me up are the dreamboat doctors that have thier butt on thier shoulders. Oh well, I guess every profession has its advantages and it's disadvantages.

Hello!!! As many of you know, or may not know, I'm starting nursing school in January. I was wondering, have you ever had a crush :redpinkhe on a doctor you've met or on any of your peers or people who work at the hospital in which you do your clinicals? What can I say? I'm a HUGE romantic at heart!!!!! :1luvu:

I know of a few women who went to nursing school not for an RN degree, but a MRS degree e Ha ha! :chuckle As in Mrs. Doctor so and so...

I am completely oblivious that other men besides my hubby exist. We are newlyweds (kinda) and he recently returned to the U.S. from deployment...can't think of anything other than being with him when he comes home for good!:blushkiss Except this one time when this really HOT male nurse came to do rounds at the hospital for his MD and I didn't even look twice until my instructor forced me to stop charting and go to another student's pt's room to watch the nurse pull out a chest tube. Then I sort of realized, wow, this guy is dreamy and I just got lost in his deep blue eyes (drool). If you are single I recommend you don't go looking for anything because you might find yourself in a mess, but don't hold back either because sometimes I wish my spouse better understood what it is like to work in the medical feild and share the interest with me:)

one of my co-workers was pursued by one of the residents when she was in nursing school. they did eventually develop a romance and now live together. they were the same age and both had similar backgrounds...just happened to strike up a conversation one day.

it was all very innocent as neither of them were really looking for a relationship at the time. she was very nervous about the whole thing and kept it rather private for quite some time.

i also have a former co-worker who went into nursing hoping to snag a doctor as a husband...she was hoping to find one while in school so that she wouldn't have to finish. i never did find out what happened to her... :rotfl:

I've met nurses who have met, dated and married doctors. Those nurses had "class" and I don't think it was there intent. They were sought after and not the seekers. Work at a teaching hospital to meet the med students, do your work, dress like a "doctor's wife", and have a "good"

reputation.

Ladies! Ladies! Don't forget that (alas) slightly less than 50% of new med students and doctors are males. So the odds of nabbing a doc for a husband or whatever are about half of what they were. (Que lastima!)

If you're a romantic and unmarried, I'd recommend going into the Army, Navy, or Air Force Nurse Corps. You will find yourself in what we could call a "target rich environment." I was a Ltjg/NC/USNR and married my LCDR/MC/USN less than three years from graduation and 35 years later, we're still together.

1Tulip,

Que lastima, indeed!!! Please guys, don't get me wrong. I will be/am a nursing student because I want to be a nurse to BE a nurse, not because I want to marry a doctor. I was just wondering if "fairy tales" really did happen. I want to make a difference in someone's life. I want to be used that way, I am not a "doctor chaser". No, No, No.

Tulip,

a warning should come with your post.....once you go military, you never go back:smokin:

ROFLMAO. . .

The reason I laugh is that I flirt and am flirted with a lot. It is innocent as I am married and very happily I must say. It cracks me up when the young ones (nursing students and doctors alike) start asking me questions like "how is he/she", "are they single", "how come you get all the attention".

The reason I get attention is I am confident and not a threat or an "issue". But it is fun. I flirt with the young, old and those in between. . .but dang, my new GP (my regular doc retired) is sure a cutie. . .its a good thing we are both happily married. . .he's a flirt too.

What was the point of this? Oh yeah, if you are in nursing school to marry a doc, get out. Managed care has zapped all the big bucks so if they don't come from old money they are no different than you or I. In fact, you may end up making more money than them one day. Your salary will not be dictated by managed care.
