Read confession
Send to a friend So I have a new sex partner, but I just found out yesterday that I have Chlamydia. I've only had sex with my new partner 4 times and we've been protected each time. We have been very careful about it.I know that the proper thing to do is to tell your partner if you contract an STD. However, I'm not living in a western country right now, and attitudes about STDs are completely different here. Information on them simply isn't available, and it's not a common thing for people here to get tested. If you test positive, you are shunned by the community. I feel like if I told him about my status it would make him hurt or angry and he possibly wouldn't want to see me anymore. There's also some complicated things involving our work and home lives that I won't get into here, but it makes it so if I told him about my positive result and he went and got tested too, then it could potentially be devastating for both of us. We could lose our jobs, families, I could be sent home, etc.
So honestly, how likely is it for someone to get Chlamydia if they use a condom properly every time? Is the risk really big enough so that I should put everything on the line and tell him? I really don't want to make him worry for no reason. The doctor I saw here told me to keep the information to myself, but I'd like opinions from people living in the western world. Thanks.
P.S. I've narrowed down the people I could have gotten Chlamydia from, and I'm no longer sleeping with or in contact with any of them.

- I think u should sustain from having sex w/him until your issue has cleared up. But, if u think he might have contracted it too then you should passively "suggest" to him that the both of you get tested. The only reason I say that is because if he did in fact contract something, you don't want to continue to pass it back and forth to each other. STD's are not something you should play about and walk around not being treated, when there are medications available that can easily get rid of it. If left untreated for too long it can get into your blood system and cause serious damage. Footnote: Al Capone died of an untreated syphilis infection.

Tell the man because more than likely he is sleeping with other women raw and may give it to them.
Posted 1 year ago - YOU NEED TO GET MEDICATION AND TELL THE GUY TO GET TESTED. Obviously one of if not both of you is married and or dating other people, so its really not smart to keep screwing him knowing you have an STD and could pass it on to others. Thats just nasty, and stupid!
Posted 1 year ago - It sounds like some MILITARY CHEATERS, if im wrong forgive me but dame this is 2008. I think in many causes a person will respect you more down the line for honesty. What if you are not the only one he is sleeping with? and he gives it to the next woman or more importantly his real wife or girlfriend. Please lets stop the ignorance.
