Is it wrong to date your instructor after semester?

Published

Is it wrong or illegal to date your clinical instructor after the semester is over or after you graduate? There is this beautiful instructor who has her masters and shes a single 30 year old but i'm almost 23 years old. She is just so attractive but I know I can't approach in an unprofessional matter. Theres nothing going on but I think about how great life would be. sorry i know this may seem unprofessional in this thread but i dont want to make a mistake nor do others.

I agree. You should wait or just not even go there. There's gotta be some hot girls in you're class, right? They're much safer -- albeit dating fellow students is a whole other can of worms you might not want to open!

Yeah thats all true. I think by the time I'm out of school in May 2009, I still gotta find a job and I do plan to persue a higher education degree. Possibly ACNP/FNP. The girls in my class are like real good friends at the moment. However there are none that I am attracted to except for the girls in the other semesters higher and lower. I know I shouldn't really be thinking about dating in school right now especially since I'm trying to get my BSN and my RN license. I remember last semseter, I had so much drama during my 4th our of 6 semester with my previous ex-gf. I was so stressed out in attending to her needs as well as trying to get top grades for my classes.

Even though my instructor is gorgeous, maybe I should just be patient and let life or "The Lord" do his work. hehe yes i'm a strong christian-catholic.

So is it boring for most people to date within the same profession? I've known so much nurse-dating-nurse, or doctor-dating-nurse, etc and eventually getting married?

It seems like you've realized it isn't the best idea. I'm glad you thought to take the time to ask.

The Lord called. Your adulterous mind has already sinned against him. Repent you sinner.

I would tend to agree with the other people on here. Wait until you graduate, pass the NCLEX, find a job and then if your still interested then you go back and ask her out and feel guilt free about it. I've got to admit that hooking up with a hot professor sounds good to me. But to avoid anyone getting in trouble its best that you do it after graduation. Good luck dude!

If there is something there, then you can feel free to persue it after graduation....however, I'm sure you may not be the first student who has tried something like this. Professionally, this may not be the best move for you.

Good luck if you try this...

Add one more to wait until you are out of school.

I wouldn't date anyone on staff while I'm in nursing school.

Not to mention that my wife says that none of them are cute enough anyway :D

(that's a joke...)
