I keep seeing posts on Twitter, Instagram lately that would always say the same thing. Avoid dating nurses. Ofc these posts will include flight attendants etc, but I’ve noticed that nurses are always included in these posts. And it’s not just one post. I’ve seen a lot. I’m honestly just trying to understand where this comes from. Is it based on real patterns people have observed? Is it a profession-wide stereotype that’s unfair to a whole group of people? Or is there something specific about the lifestyle (night shifts, high-stress work, close coworker dynamics) that makes relationships harder? I’m not rlly trying to bash anyone here as I do have a lot of respect for health workers. I just want to know why this keeps coming up on my timeline every few days. Has anyone in here dated a RN? What do you think actually drives this stereotype? submitted by /u/Arcabyte
