Doctors Marrying Nurses: We don't see this Again, sadly.

20240227_152136_0000.jpg

Back in the days it was often to see a Doctor get married to a Nurse, lol. Tell that to the Doctors of this generation, they ll laugh at you so badly. Only about 2% of that happens these days and this would have to be between colleagues right from when they were at school. We seldom see them get married if they met after school. There are many reasons why we don't see more Doctors marrying Doctors or even Nursing. And you ll be shocked at some of these findings.

In the field of medicine unlike other fields, there are so many intricacies. The target is always to keep the sick patients alive until the recovery process is completed. And often this can be a gruelling task to carry out.

The training itself is quite a daunting task and with the advent of technology, many of this can be done even easier reducing much contacts hence less interaction. However, amidst this there are key factors to consider.

  1. The Gender predilection has changed. Back in the days, the only place Doctors get to meet the female counterparts were in the nursing schools and it seemed it was only a nurse that could understand and go well with them. But now, there are even more female Doctors and so the switch has turned to the Female doctors who often don't have the time for such except if they are really in love. With the male Doctors and are willing to go the extra mile.

  2. There are a lot of ethical considerations in this profession, really, aside the fact that we can't have extra relationships with patients or patient relatives, having such with even fellow staffs could also be seen as an ethical misdemeanor, especially if it's over a particular case or patient. Hence, in other to avoid medico legal wahala (problems), best avoided.

  3. Japa miscalculations, I had to add this one, because japa has spoilt a lot of things, imagine a nurse you were eyeing in school who just japa 2 years after and you still have to gather money to japa and live the foreign live. This has totally changes the frequency because you have to know if japa can work before considering if love can work. Sadly tho, many don't get to work out.

  4. Work-Life Balance.
    We have tried to see how this may have some effect but really, since we are talking about marriage here. It is an important matter. Marriage requires a good work life balance and when these two smart and busy people consider what time they both have for their own individual lives, it because a matter to consider moving foreward. Better just flow with some Tech bro who has money and time to spend and lavish than follow the Doctor Who is still struggling with exams here and there to keep another person alive. Doctors have suffered in this world. Chaii.

  5. Finally for this post.. There are still more and I am sure you know, but the environment also matters, yes the work environment, we have two bodies governing the entire health environment here in Nigeria, JOHESU, and the NMA. These bodies over the last decade or so have been at logger heads which have been mostly benefitting the government as it appears so that one will almost always counter the other. In this kind of working environment, it speaks to psych of both the Doctor and Nurses. They won't want to be in a free zone.

Just to also mention, while in school, we saw some of these older seniors who got married to Nurses, but somehow things didn't work out and they are now separate. However, I must also mention those who are still together, and doing what God is helping them to accomplish in their marriage.

The sides are many as you can see, but the matter is, Doctor-Nurse relationships don't happen as usual as often. And I have tried to list just a few of these reasons. You may wanna add yours in the comment session.
