aura_of_laura 321 Posts Specializes in mental health, military nursing. Has 8 years experience. Feb 3, 2010 I met my husband my third day at college - he was a poli-sci major and I was studying international business. We became friends through a shared love of shaking up the status quo (and maybe a little to something to do with him having a massive crush on me). We married a year later at 19 and started nursing school a month after that!Married for four years - can't believe it!

aura_of_laura 321 Posts Specializes in mental health, military nursing. Has 8 years experience. Feb 3, 2010 Come to think of it, my brother-in-law is a cop (though has an engineering degree) and his wife is a nurse. Weird how that works...

cebuana_nurse 380 Posts Specializes in OB, Peds, Med Surg and Geriatric Nsg. Feb 3, 2010 I met my hubby when I was on vacation here in the US on 07. I was looking for job postings on a local hospital and he happens to be there doing his clinicals as a respiratory therapist. I was having a hard time finding the HR department when he passed by. Asked for directions, he escorted me to the HR building and took my phone number in return. When I went back to the Philippines, we started talking online. Didn't really thought I'll be marrying a foreigner then. Got back here in 2009 and got married. He quit respiratory therapy and became an engineer. And now, we'll be celebrating our 1st wedding anniversary on the 18th! Wohoo!:anpom:Majority of my friends that are nurses got married to nautical engineers (must be the white uniforms! Lol), one got married to a doctor, one married a lab technician and one is engaged to a nurse.

cardiacmadeline, RN 262 Posts Specializes in cardiothoracic surgery. Has 6 years experience. Feb 3, 2010 I met my husband at our previous jobs at the same company, before I went to nursing school. His boss kind of set us up, turns out we were the perfect match! He went back to school for machining, (he now does programming for a machining shop) and I went to nursing school. As for other nurses I know, a couple at work are married to other nurses and one is married to a cop. The other nurses, I have no idea what their husbands do! When I was in school, it seemed to me that there were quite a few of the other nursing students dating engineering students.
