Today, I asked my doctor out on a date. He had his nurse turn me down. FML

Was he a psychiatrist? You sound crazy.

RP, I think you're confusing the word "sound" ... with the word "is."

“You is crazy” does have a nice ring to it.

As recommended by 4 out of 5 voices in my head....

No boundaries have we, OP??? Did you at least seduce the nurse so that she could report back on your lovemaking skills? Methinks it's definitely time for OP to switch over to a different physician ... which is the proper thing to do ... BEFORE you actually go hit on your now-current one! [Face Palm ... anddd we're clear!]

He acted as a professional. I would say FML if he had said yes as then he was not trustworthy as a doctor.

The Florence Nightingale effect doesn't work with male doctors. Also, it would be completely unprofessional of him to date a patient.

Not only unprofessional but he could lose his medical license. LW is an idiot

Why would you put anyone in that situation? That could mess with his career. Be prepared for your letter informing you that you were fired as a patient or moved to another doctor. Your dating life can not be so bad that you thought it was good to put someone in an ethical dilemma.

Yes he for sure will drop her as a patient. Also LW, fun fact, your insurance can drop you if your doctors report inappropriate behavior. Likely would take more than one incident but I’ve worked in healthcare and seen it happen

He had to send the nurse to cover his a$$ last thing he needs you saying is he propositioned you or file a sexual harassment suit it's the guys job for christ sake that has ethics boards it could cause him his job or worse his license. He isn't working a cash register at McD's...

You really cannot be dumb enough to think this was ok. He would lose his medical license. Your stupidity is on full display here.

It’d be a major conflict of interest had he accepted. Professional boundaries are in place for a reason. If you’re old enough to know and understand this...YDI.
