Emotional Breakdown waiting to happen

I am 20 and my b/f is 25 and we have been dating for about a year now but things have been very iffy to me from the begining. We started having sex in the begining of our relationship and I later found out that he had (unknowingly) given me two uncurable STD's. At first I was ok with it but now I am an emotional wreck! I feel that I cant talk to him about anything and since he is working full time now i hardly see him. Sometimes I feel like the only reason I am still with him is b/c its just easier that way. I feel like I would never be able to be with someone else or tell them that I have these STD's. I do love him but Im really not sure why. Hes really not my type, we don't like to do the same things. I just dont know what to do. I am also afraid of hurting him b/c I know he loves me more than anything. Im just confused on the whole situation.

Whoah.Wait a sec....You think someone giving you two STD'S shows you that they "love you more than anything"??? I beg to differ hun....If he did love you...if he even cared about you as a fellow human being, he would have let you in on his "little secret"...that alone would have given me enough reason to leave him.Forget about it being "just easier" to stick around.


You dint like him, dont know why your with him. You dont share any interests,but am scared to hurt him? It doent seem like he was too scared to give you a disease!!!!


My advice to you is this:


Get out. Run and run fast. Not only do you deserve better, its hard telling what else he is willing to give to you if you stick it out...


Please keep us posted....
