Firstly, I'm gonna have to put on my "mom" face and say - no protection?? I know you didn't plan on anything happening, but if there's even a hint of possibility, you should have it available!

Secondly, if you did pass it on, it isn't fatal, and it isn't a "no cure" STD like herpes or AIDs, it isn't the often deadly Hepatitis B, or even a curable but serious STD like syphilis or chlamydia, and he can't get pregnant (like you can!)

I wouldn't worry about it. Yes he may have gotten it but men get it less often, as their "parts" are on the outside of the body and therefore not the same moist environment where yeast thrives best.

hi jap_lost.. good to see you are back.. doubt this'll be the last time you'll see each other.. but that's a different story..


he'll be fine.. like the posters said.. and if he catches something, it's not fatal, he'll just have some irritation to remember you by for a while.. no reason for you to feel you are a monster..


like the other posters said, STDs and pregnancy is what you need to worry about. i know he's been in your life for a while, but also that he has other lovers that you do not know about, like you mentioned before.. so if there is anything you need to worry about, it's what you may have gotten from one of his lovers.. and that, you may want to get tested for soon..

You don't want him mad at you and you are afraid of his temper, and you may not see him for a while, and you don't use protection with him??? This doesn't sound healthy for you.

He should be told. Some men (and women) are not medically aware and if he has very little symptoms he might not know what it is. Untreated he can spread it to his wife and
