*I'm mobile so excuse any typos*
Ok, I'm in a PN program I'm one of two males out of a class of 33.....the women in my class have takin intrest in me good intrest we are only two months into the program. And I'm not the type of person to try to **** where I eat, but some have been really throwing it at me and truthfully I'm buckling under the peer pressure. is this career really like this where women are throwing themselves at you left and right? What y'all think should I go ahead and mess around with one of em, or just be cool and keep it friendly. its a really good feeling to be this sought after and all this attention thrown at me tho any one have any similar exp.
Dude, i am normally all for doing what feels good now and worrying about consequences later. I started working at a hospital right before i started nursing school. i had a ton of women, both single and married, flirting constantly. My sis and mom both work at the hospital, so i was able to sorta weed some out. I however did start dating one, and it was an awful misstake. our breakup wasnt bad(to me at least), but now i am regretting the whole thing. dirty looks, gossiping, all sorts of other chick behavior.
I have dated coworkers before, and this is the worst its ever been. my mom tried to warn me, and so did a few others. Females nurses(for all their "compasssion") are not to be dated if you work anywhere near them. Maybe i should rephrase that, they are not to be broken up with.
School is no different, except most of the chicks are younger. I am 30, a former Marine, and have a 19 and 22 year old essentially dry humping my leg all day in class. while it is flattering, it is waaaaay more trouble than its worth.
One more thing, the reason the saying "hell hath no fury, like a woman scorned" is so true and common, is because women dont tend to think about consequences when angered. they could care less about your future or anything else if you **** them off. So, error on the side of caution, and stay away from fellow students. your career is more important that that. she can always make the rest of your school time so miserable you quit or lose focus. and there isnt really anything you can do to stop it, cuz, well, your a guy and people arent sympathetic to guys.
Just my two cents. take it or leave it
I'm into a nursing assistant program. 2 males (I'm one of them) out of 30 students. But the other male is into his 40's. There are more older women than younger which is good. I am shy anyways... may not even make friends.. probably yeah because we're going to be together for 8 months. I am glad that they aren't too many young girls...because I wouldn't want some of them to talk to me.. I want to focus on the teacher and do good.
In order to give you an informed decision I'll need to see pictures of these women.
One day as I walked into school with my wife (also a student) several of the girls in my class yelled out my name, my wife commented “are those your little groupies?” I said “ya, they think I'm a stud” just then they started asking me if I'd done my homework and could they compare answers with me...so much for me being a stud.
As an older guy who's been around, I offer you this little piece of advice: Don't be dipping your pen in the company ink.
Good luck in school, I'm right there with you.
