It didn’t bother me, but it did make me hyper aware of my own situation: I was indeed very single.įamily members, friends, and coworkers have all asked how a “girl like you” could possibly be single. Immediately I was surrounded with other nurses giving me advice on dating, and relationships in general. I reluctantly admitted that I was unattached. As I placed my empty potluck dish into my bag, my coworker mentioned that my boyfriend must be a lucky man.
