Nurses marrying doctors

Does anyone think that most young women come into nursing in order to meet and / or marry a doctor? I have been around a while and I see young nurses where clothes that would make my head turn in a night club to work. What does that say about nursing as a profession?

No, we become nurses because we are mentally ill.

I'm currently in nursing school, but when I was majoring in Psychology at LSU I went out with a resident a few times. The first time we met he asked me what I was majoring in and then actually said 'please say you're going into the medical field.' I never asked him why he said this but he made the comment later when I asked him about nurses and doctors dating, and he said that there are two types of doctors...those that want a partner that they can actually discuss their work with who can understand what they're talking about and dealing with....and those that want their home life to be something totally separated from the medical world. I think nurses are the same way, and while some may marry a doctor for his title and paycheck....some may like having a partner they can discuss their work day with and relate to professially, while some nurses look for a partner who has nothing to do with the medical world...like nurses who are completely adamant about not marrying a doctor. It's all in what you want to come home to at the end of the day.

This is a good point, Ashley, and I totally agree. My fiance is a med student, and I like coming home and telling him about my day and knowing that he actually understands what the heck I am talking about. When I have a rough day, he understands why. He also comes home and tells me about his day at clinical, and I think it's nice to have someone to bounce ideas off of. So, I am glad I am marrying someone in the medical field.

Dude .. I swear to God .. this individual (Cqc_Cqb) either has no frickin' brains whatsoever .. or he's just good at starting serious issues with people. Maybe he likes to see how many people he can rile (spelling?) up on the internet? ..

Why the HELL would you even START to think (MORE LESS accuse) female nurses of going into the field to find their man? You're an idiot, dude. Sorry, so true.

This is the second post I've had to reply to of yours that absolutely insane.

Oh, and if I were a lady (nurse or not, but a lady PERIOD) .. I would have found this VERY disturbing. Hell, I'm a GUY and I find it degrading. Imagine the poor ladies viewing this (who by the way in case you didn't know moron .. make up the majority of the Nursing profession in the WORLD).

*Michael.

I think I'll say a little prayer about - I mean for you .. tonight.

Unfortunately I was already married when I went to nursing school, guess I missed out on a great opportunity! ;)

Hehe .. funny. Oh hark, do I sense a tad whisper of sarcasm? :p

While you may well be very correct in your assessment and certainly entitled to your opinion, and while nurses are much more educated and able to deal with the high-tech world that nursing has become, I can remember rolling my eyes at a number of nurses in the past who were obviously flirtatious with the doctors. I personally could never understand it - I'll take orders at work but NOT at home...lol...

You all have found me out, I feel like such a fraud. Yes I'm diving head deep in to pus, blood, feces, and various consistencies of green stuff I can't describe because I'm looking for that special MD to be my sugar momma.

I'm a nursing student, but I'm also very well to do. I don't need to marry anyone, and certainly not a doctor.:lol2::trout::nono::trout:

my sister's husband is a doctor. they were married before he was a MD and she was a RN . he has his only private practice he only takes care of certain patients he's had for years , and she is a charge nurse. they've been married along time and have 10 kids. oldest 21 youngest 6 .

I want to know where these nurses get their scrubs because I always look like I am wearing pajamas

LOL!

My brother in law has a doctorate that has something to do with forestry (he counts trees).

He is the same way on the name thing...when we want to torment him we call him "Doctor".

Even the pt's where I am now use the doc's first names!
