I was seeing a guy for a while and was pretty confident that if he did have something he would have told me so we didn't use protection because 'I was the only one he was with' one night I was at his house and saw a condom wrapper on the floor and knew it wasn't from out sack sessions so I backed off and didn't sleep with him. One night I called him to talk and he wasn't his normal self so I asked what was wrong and he told me that he had something weird going on down town... he didn't quite tell me what exactly because he didn't know what it was himself. I went to the doctor and got looked at and was told that I was fine. He wasn't able to get into the doctor for a while so his stuff had some time to grow and spread and he figured it was warts (pretty obvious after they grew and spread) so he called and told me. I thought i was ok but I went in for a PAP a year later and it came back abnormal. So I had to have a Colposcopy (not so fun, they tell you it doesn't hurt but all I have to say is 'the hell it doesn't) which came back positive for HPV so at this point I had to tell the guy I was now seeing that I had something... he was really understanding and we continued seeing each other. I went in for another PAP recently and was told that the strain of HPV I have is the one that causes cervical cancer... but when I was checked out the doctor said the affected area looks like it's going away... YAY!!!!
