Dear Cupid,

I broke up with my boyfriend 6 months ago, but have since slept with him.

I have recently found out that I have caught an STI. I can only have caught it off him as I haven't slept with anyone else since we first got together 3 years ago.

I have had the infection treated and told him about it. However I have slept with him again although I'm not sure if he has had himself tested or treated.

What can I do? I'm not sure I can talk to him about it.

I wait in anticipation

thanx

I totally agree with mommyofthree! I wouldn't sleep with him again until you find out if he has been tested and if you do deffinetly use protection. Don't risk you health for sex and not good if it is something very serious that's how things get spread. If he doesn't want to talk about it I would'nt bother with him again so not worth the doctors appointment!!

mommyofthree agony auntYou need to ask him about it! It is very important that you know for a fact that he will not be transmitting anything to you during sex. If you feel that you can't talk about these things with him, then you should not be sleeping with him! You should also be using protection, as you said, you two broke up therefore you are no longer in a committed relationship, having unprotected sex with someone you are not in a monogomous relationship with is like playing Russian Roulette, you never when will be the time the load that's fired is a deadly one. Please be safe and good luck.

The first thing i would do, is go back to the clinic and explain the situation. They will probably offer you another test to see if you have caught the infection again, that will put your mind at rest, if nothing else.

Meanwhile, have a chat with your ex boyfriend, even though it may be difficult for you too, you really should try to. Ask him if he has ever had any infection treated, and if he hasn't, i would urge him to go. I know you can't make him, and if he refuses, then tell him that you will not be able to have sex with him again without a condom because otherwise, you are putting yourself at risk.

Good luck!
