Pretty straight forward for women; would you date and perhaps marry a man to start a family with who is a registered nurse?
To provide more details I will be getting degree to become an RN and will be finished with my accelerated program in my early 30's. I have other qualifications but this will be my main career. I have heard people go back and forth on whether an RN is good pay or not. I believe it is and I am in a state that has some of the highest pay rates for RNs.
Couple that with my goal of working 12 hour shifts for 3 days back to back (give a few extra overtime hours) and this opens my schedule up to spending more time with my significant other and our eventual kids, taking up productive and interesting hobbies and having time to pursue side ventures for additional income. Also, after gaining some experience I plan to undertake the pathway of a Travel RN meaning I will get paid to go and work in other places and I can bring my significant other along with me so when I am not working we can spend time together in a new place.
A potential plan I have is I save up money and gain Travel RN experience then we can use that money to decide what place to settle down in with a lower cost of living. Then once we have a home stead I can use connections I have made in my original state to take on Travel RN jobs from there earning our household more based on where we live. Of course I will pull this back once we decide on having kids or work out a situation where we still travel together as I take on Travel RN jobs. But, that is a future discussion her and I will have to work out in finer details.
TL:DR
Basically I believe I have a good deal to offer in terms of what my career will be able to provide as well as the benefits and perks that can grow from it. I want my future partner to know that I can provide for not only us but for our future family. But, I worry that some might not have the most glamorous outlook on a male RN as a provider and partner. Thoughts?
