Am I At Risk Even Thought I Used Condom the Right Way ?
Posted: 09-01-07 23:12pm

Ok this is my story...

I met this girl at my college and I got to know her, I know she used to be a drug addict and since her personal background is none of my business I didn't ask much about it.

Within time me and this girl were kind of dating. When it comes to sex I always take care of myself, meaning I always use protection because I think I'm too young to have kids (25 y o ) and also because I don't want to catch and STD in this case HIV.

When time time came for us to have sexual intercourse, we talked about our past sexual experiences and she confirmed that she was clean and that she takes cares of herself and get a check up every 6 months. I know I'm clean because I have gotten tested 2 months ago and the results were negative.

Now, the only thing that bothers me and scares me a little bit is that fact that she mentioned that she had a friend that just died from the virus (HIV) and that her dad has it, but she made it clear that she is clean.

During sexual intercourse I always used protection, used a condom and to make sure the condom doesn't break I also applied k-y jelly just to take precocious. That night we did it 3 times and the condom didn't break or slipped off.

Another thing that kind of scared me was that i think she mentioned that she has cut her lip with my chain and had little blood in the right side of her lip but I don't know if I kissed it while the blood was in her lip.

Everytime We were done I will take off the condom and I will wash my penis with warm water.... I do that everytime I have sex...

based on everything I have described
do you think I'm at risk?

If she says she is clean and you trust her then you are fine. If she does have HIV than pretty much any blood contact puts you at high risk. You should both go and get tested together but don't make her feel like you think she is lieing. She is most likely telling the truth but I think it is always good to get tested together in a relationship where one or both people has had sex before.

well yeah she said she was clean...
we were planning on having a relationship but we had to split up
because she needs to spend more time with her daughter
and transfered to another college
so me and her lost contact....


on the details I explained
Im not really sure if I could've been infected if she was positive
But I highly doubt it but u know theres always a doubt...
because now these days It's hard to trust anybody....

Get tested with her as a bonding thing to ease your mind. It is the only way
