Maybe he's got it too. It's only fair. The infection is a life time of discomfort; it would be better that the relatiionship ends on an amicable note.

Perhaps a partner with an already existing condition would probably be best.

Before becoming intimate with a new partner, both indivduals need to have a discussion of their respective sexual histories/past. This is prudent and widely recommended by health professionals. This should be done at a time when both of you are relaxed and have privacy.

Of course be honest and direct and not emotional.

Say something like... i am interested in being intimate with you and i think you want the same. Before we become intimate i would like to share with you something about my past/me. Perhaps when i am done you will have something to share with me."

Your partner may feel relieved that you brought up the topic and open up to you after you are so considerate and honest in sharing this information with him. If he is not understanding and/or judgemental then you will gain further valuable information about his character/behavior.

Just a little here reminder: a discussion about sexual histories includes yours AND HIS. You'll need to know how many partners he is active with, their gender, and status of the relationship(s) e.g. married, single, divorced with or without children, and sexual orientation e.g. bisexual,hetero etc. Best of luck to you.

Why is Vince's script posted 3 times? Can someone fix this? And by the way i do NOT agree with Vince's last statement.
