If you are a nurse, or a future nurse, is your spouse/significant other in law enforcement?
Just curious to see if this is a legit pattern or if I've just been noticing it more lately.
I am a nurse with a law enforcement spouse.

Still kinda cool that with 41 votes so far, about 30% are nurse/LE couples. Keep 'em coming!

We joke that cops and firefighters marry nurses and teachers. My BFF is an ortho surgical nurse, married to a FF, a couple we vacation with often---shes a teacher, he's a FF. My DH is an officer. A couple we used to do things with (divorced) shes an RN, he's a LEO. A nearby county sheriffs' office has at least 4 deputies with nurse wives

My boyfriend who I plan on staying with for all of my future is currently an auto technician and going to the police academy (we aren't married and he's not a cop yet so I guess it doesn't completely count). I don't know of any other women at my work dating law enforcement men. A lot of women dating auto mechanics and laborers.

No, but I would totally marry Detective Stabler from Law and Order: SVU. (Except that he doesn't know me & he isn't a real person.)

My bf is an EMT/FF, former military. We met working transport EMS. I always thought I would end up with a cop. I'm a bit of a "badge bunny". *sorry, not sorry*

Hmmm... I wonder if this is why cops never give me tickets when I get pulled over while wearing scrubs...

My SO is not a cop, but he works in metal fabrication. He also used to be an EMT.
But- half of my family is in law enforcement. And I've got to say, it's kind of funny because I'm pretty sure my family is supplying all these cops and teachers that are marrying nurses. Too many cops to keep track of, 4 or 5 teachers and three nurses, myself included.

Nope. Hubby is in the military and works in the hospital. He is actually getting ready to retire in 2 1/2 weeks! Whoop-Whoop!!

Mine's a truck driver - we're not married, but we've been together for a bit. I haven't seen anyone else say truck driver yet. I guess we're weird.
