it was while i was in the hospital for three months,i've been in the hospital many times but never cared about him.This time it was totally different,alot of electricity between us,lots of intense staring,i kept dreaming about him in the hospital that i had a past life with him etc.

anyway one of the patients came up to me and she just started talking to me about him like she knew something was going on,I had never mentioned him to her or anything,she was picking up the energy or something.

anyway im still dreaming about him,has this happened to anyone else.

I really attached to nurse when I was 15 being in hospital for a week, then I came home and never met her again, even didnt know her name and I missed her.

You can invite him on facebook if you know how to find him and when you are out of the hospital maybe you can meet or if you want you can try to do something being in hospital but I think he would be scared that his coworkers or other pateints would know something so he would avoid from it because he doesnt want to lose his job but who knows... Good luck

It can be typical to connect to someone who is caring for you during a very vulnerable period of your life when you are needing care. Obviously you needed care or you wouldn't have been in the hospital & thal length of time creates more of a connection....but remember the connection in a romantic way is a one sided one...your side. He was caring for you because it's his JOB. Don't get that kind of care confused with a romantic caring. Get control of your emotions based on reality, not on your fantasy or you will only cause yourself to feel hurt when he did nothing to leade you on to those feelings. Psych hospitals are NOT the place to let emotions take control. Stick with mindful reality.

I agree that some people fall for others when being taken care of. Falling for someone Whois taking care of you is called nightingale syndrome. I would however advise against friending them on fb because you're crossing boundaries between caregiver and patient. I would chalk it up to a simple crush but if it's something you begin to obsess over then you should bring it up with tdoc.

People can look to us like they are staring when in fact they aren't even looking at us. True professionals don't get involved with their patients so don't let your fantasy thinking get control of reality.

I agree with RxQueen875, when someone is there for you and taking care of you, it's easy to develop feelings for them. Even if the feelings are returned I doubt he could act on them. Where I work, there's a rule that you can't even be friends with people who you've treated within the last two years. Whether or not you can ever have a relationship beyond patient/staff varies depending on the discipline. Nursing may have ethical guidelines, I know for therapists they are never supposed to be friends or romantically involved regardless of how much time has passed.

Yes I know they lose their jobs if anything happens,I felt he liked me before but not today.
How do you get over it,and why did I dream I had a past life with him,it was very specific im spiritual so I believe in that.he was always really excited when he was going to be my nurse.
