Is it just me, or does it seem like there are an awful lot of nurses who date/ marry cops and vice versa? My boyfriend is a police officer, and works with a lot of cops who are married to nurses; his best friend is also an officer and his wife is a nurse and a friend of mine's parents are also a cop and a nurse. Does this seem to happen a lot everywhere? Just thought it was interesting...

PS dial 911 and make a cop come

I am married to a police officer....we didn't meet while we were working. But in my ER there are several nurse/police officer marriages as well as nurse/paramedic marriages.

i'm a nursing student and am also married to a cop. most everyone is right about the fact that i can come home and vent to him about a stressful shift and he totally understands. he, too, is lucky enough to get to deal with some of our beligerant folks of our society. :-P

it does worry me that he is out there protecting us against people who want to hurt others and him. but, he's happy doing what he does and i wouldn't be able to live with myself if i insisted that he have a factory or desk job that i know he would hate.

there are several other couples in our PD that are nurse/cop, but around here i find more EMS/cop couples. it does make for an interesting relationship for sure!!!

I wasn't going to respond to this one in fear that I would be alone in my remarks.....

I looooooooooooooove cops. OMG. Seriously. (Maybe because my dad is one? Is that sick?)

One day I stumbled upon one hell of a Media site....... all pics of cops and nurses. Obviously the people on this site weren't either cops or nurses, but man was it a pleasant thought!!! :D

dated a cop once for 6 months, but didn't marry his sorry a--! thank god!!!
