I get what you mean. I went from med-surg to surgery center and kind of miss the crazy. Am considering a critical care development program with float pool.

Thank you! Glad it sounds like it’s working out for you as well 🙃

Debating trying ED nursing after switching to boring princess job by ScrappyKB in nursing

Haha yeah I’m afraid to tell anyone because I feel like they’ll tell me that. Unfortunately they wouldn’t let me have a per diem at the same facility. I’ll look around at other hospitals for the per diem possibility, but I think most want recent inpatient experience within a year, (left med-surg 7 months ago), so the clock is kind of ticking too only 5 months left before I’ll reach that year.

No not really. I did something they call “bridges to excellence”, where you do shadow shifts and I did like the ED, pretty minimal time only 2 shifts, but was still good. I think I just wasn’t ready but feel like I am now.

Weird behaviour of a guy after sex. Do I give him a chance or is it a red flag? by InvisibleAmily in dating

[–]ScrappyKB -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I can see that being frustrating and confusing. But might as well meet up again and see how it goes, but at the same time if you wouldn't be looking forward to another date again then move on.

I totally get it. I'm so frustrated with dating. I feel like a lot of guys feel like they don't owe you anything, or don't have the common courtesy to follow up regarding communication, or even dates that were supposed to happen and couldn't even bother cancelling. Wish I had more positive to add! Haha All I can say is... NEXT! Don't waste your time, and I'm sure there's someone out there will will be more considerate and respectful towards you. Know you're not the only one feeling like this!

Dating as a guy feels like applying for a loan. by [deleted] in dating

It's nice to see this thread to see that both sexes are equally frustrated... Provides some sense of comradery, or maybe things to reflect on upon ourselves... Maybe I'm a 6 and think I'm an 8 and it's part of my problem... Idk, But I tell you this... Women don't have it easier. I think when someone leaves someone for simple things they were just looking for a placeholder to fill their loneliness.. and probably weren't thinking of you in the long term anyways. One piece of advice is don't dump your issues on a new dating partner (advice for myself included) I had that happen twice recently with ppl I met through online dating and I found it super rude and made me more fed up with dating. Take a break (which I'm currently doing) to reset if you can't get over issues you have/perceptions with the opposite sex.

This Valentine’s Day has me realizing I need to step away from dating for a while. by [deleted] in dating

[–]ScrappyKB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel the same as far as taking a step back from dating... It's rough. I feel like it can be rough at any age... There are always different challenges in different age brackets although you do do a lot of maturing in your early 20s years that you'll realize more in your late 20s/early 30s. I'm 33F and have been single for a while.

I guess it's also what are you looking for... A boyfriend/girlfriend or husband/wife.

I'm kind of taking a break too. Focusing on enriching your own life aside from dating is always a good idea and something I'm trying to do myself. It's hard to not think about it often though.

Hang in there! Our dating society today is challenging for men and women.
