The few guys that are in my nursing program are complete GENTLEMEN and very respectful towards others in general. I hope she will understand that with all of the hard work that nursing students endure, there isn't much time for play. Unless you are leading her to believe that there is???

She is jealous I am around young nursing students all day.

Well... I suppose "jealous" is the wrong word... she is "protective" and "curious" and "doesn't like it."

If she were around men all day...well heck ya I would be worried!

Practice; Sometimes, it's a paradox where insecurity sprouts from something said or done that brings doubt to one's loyalty. The Jealousy thing does bring up a concern. Are you referring to your classmates in a professional manner, or in a more personal “clubish” term?

I can understand her being uptight though. Not that she thinks something will really happen but more of that you are getting a lot of attention being one of the few men.

the top part was of course humor. you have to have humor in a field like we are in..lol.. my husband always pokes fun at me in a good way... i dont think if i were you i would worry to much about it,ut do keep in mind that you are a professional, maybe let her meet the others that you work with and mayber schedule some time for you and her without talking about work, or anything like that.. mayber that may eliminate some tension she has toward that. women can be unpredictable, but are usually a stable breed when it comes to our souldmates... so she is okay by feeling like she should protect you, but then there is a line that cannot be ran over, if she has an insecurity or a lack of trust in you then she does in the relationship too. that leaves the door open for doubts and reluctantcy..

If you give her reason to be jealous, that's one thing. If she is simply jealous without reason, it's something else. From later posts by you, I'm guessing the relationship is new or not too emotionally secure. Time for you two to talk. Either settle each other's fears or let each other go.
One thing you may do to settle her fears is take her to school one day and introduce her to some of your fellow students. Or invite them for dinner, drinks, whatever (with your gf there, of course). If she makes friends with some of them, she may feel better.

Well geese I mean the ultimate answer here seems to be TRUST and LOYALTY and with both there is LOVE with a Rock Solid Foundation that is the key Dont Rock The Boat? Communicate effectively and continue to Build Trust and your Love will grow stronger and stronger because it is really hard to maintain a relationship without these qualities after the HoneyMoon Phase is over even if you are not married all new couples experience this lol
Suggestion Treat her always the way you did when you first met that excitement anxiety Women Soooooo LOVE this!

Here is another guy's perspective. My Meg is the most important person in my life, I talk about her at work inssesently. How she cooks, how she and I communicate, when my collegues finally meet her they are meeting an old friend, and the reverse is true for them, when I am home an work is the topic, I tell her the jokes and some of the troubles going on on the job. So far my cooworkers know my wife is a Saint being able to put up with me. Trust is what it boiles down to. As far as sex when I was in school and studying all the time, Sex was like meals a luxury.Tell your honey this. Nurses are the most gossipy group of individuals on the planet. So she would know from them for sure if any hanky panky was afoot. And never ask her to dress up in one of those sexy nurse outfits on a Saturday night. I learned that the hard way.

Part II . . . I wasn't done. . . . I couldn't put it all on one posting.
Here is an example:
My class just found out our grades for the hardest class this semester. We were all happy, laughing and crying because we all passed with an A's & B's. One girl was crying and she ran down the hall and jumped into the arms of another girl. There was a big cheer and then everyone gave her a hug, because she was so happy and we were all happy for her. She ran over and gave me a big hug. I felt like I needed to do the same, but I couldn't. Is it as simple as the "When Harry Met Sally" adage: women and men can not, JUST, be friends. And, with so few men in the field, this is job going to be JUST hard work, on every front?

I am a nursing student and a bouncer in a strip club. All I see is women 24-7! I have my wife and 2 little girls at home and she is the coolest chick there is! She knows it is all an attempt to make all of our lives better.

Get used to fighting with this girl if she doesn't chill out. Good Luck.

Thanks for you advice everyone.

After being in nursing school for a semester, I now am able to comfort her much more on my relationship with the other students. She has met all the girls I am friends with, two of them being engaged as it is and one of them is married. There are a few single ones but I just remind her that she is way more smokin' then them.

Does anyone think it would be a good idea to have a cocktail party and invite some of my guy friends over and try to hook them up with my classmates?

no,

Get rid of this girl. You’re spending way too much precious time worrying about this when you should be concentrating on your studies.
I WONDER WHY YOU PUT UP WITH THIS....LIFE IS TOO SHORT.
