Today, my nurse girlfriend told me she's more attracted to the veins in my arm than any other part of me. FML

Today, I had to go to the hospital to get blood taken. The nurse mentioned how pronounced and easy to see my veins are. I guess that explains why she missed five times in a row. I'm surprised my arm doesn't look like a heroin addict's right now. FML
Today, my niece asked why my veins were so close to my skin. She was referring to my stretch marks. FML
Today, I donated blood for the first time, and all the nurses kept complimenting on how good my veins were. That's the nicest thing anyone has said to me in the past 2 months. FML
Today, as a nursing student, I needed to take a blood sample from someone and the veins on his arms weren't really easy to draw blood from. I asked him, "Can I please look at your legs?" It turns out he was amputated. FML
Today, I decided to give blood for the second time. I felt excrutiating pain when she stuck the needle in my arm. Another nurse came running over in a panic. Apparently my inexperienced nurse had put it in my tendon instead of my vein. FML
Today, I went to get my blood drawn to see how far along I am pregnant. The lady stuck both my arms twice and then busted a vein in my right arm. She told me to come back tomorrow to try again. FML
Today, I realized my girlfriend has more hair on her abdomen than I have on mine. FML
Today, I got my annual blood test. The nurse was inexperienced and it took her several tries to insert the needle properly. When I get back home, my fiancé starts yelling at me and storms out. The reason? I am a recovering drug addict and my arm appeared as if I had been shooting up. FML
Today, I accidentally asked a one-armed man which arm he wanted me to take blood from. He asked for a different nurse. FML
Today, I went to a blood drive. The nurse taking my blood mentioned that she'd been called in on her day off, and she swore she wasn't drunk. I didn't know what to do, so I just smiled and blinked back tears as she savaged the vein in my arm. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

That's a weird thing to say. What makes your veins different from everyone else's?

There's absolutely nothing sexier than veins on a deliciously muscular forearm. Don't worry, be happy. ;]

And how is literally any other part of you a higher value for her to find attractive? I like my partners shoulders. Should he be upset I don't like his butt more? Should I be upset he is more into my boobs than my ears? Unless she is Only into your veins and not you as a person this is a whiny non issue.

Time to trade her in for a younger model with less miles on the clock.

Why did he feel the need to add that she's a nurse? Could have just said "my girlfriend....." I don't see anything nurse related in this so it kind of seems pointless.

Probably because nurses have to do things like take blood and put IVs, so they tend to notice and admire certain types of veins. It's relevant to the FML because it gives us a little idea as to why she might be so attracted to good veins.

It's a nurse thing. We tend to notice large veins because they are easy to put in IV's and draw blood. I have mentioned to several men how beautiful their arms are and how easy it would be to pop a cannula in. Often when sitting watching a movie etc, I will be holding my husband's hand and subconsciously palpating his veins. If he didn't mention she was a nurse, that would be creepy.

Just not his main vein.

41, I'm not a nurse and I love bulgy veins on a guys forearm and biceps. I too used to palpate my ex-boyfriends veins while watching tv. I think there are quite a few of us "crazies." Lol.

it was made a research which concluded that women are attracted by the veins of the arm and how it looks due to the fact that it resembles a penis.

Show her some of your veins that throb when you get hot and heavy - it'll get her going in no time.

Doesn't seem like much of an FML to me. Different people are attracted to different things. One of the things I find most attractive about my bf is his nose, but that doesn't mean I think the other parts are ugly. She probably thinks the rest of you is attractive too, but is just particularly enthralled by your veins.

Maybe it's a crappy nurse joke?
