how do I confront my partner when I found out I tested positive for an STI? Both of us are health freaks, and I’m scared they’ll break off our relationship when I tell them. I feel so disgusting and anxious since I got the results. Any advice helps

you are not disgusting. these things happen. you just need to be as straight up as possible and tell them what’s going on. say hey i just got tested and i have x, you should go get tested as soon as possible. do you think it came from them or someone else ?

STIs are very common and it’s immature to call someone disgusting for having something as if they created it. U deserve to give ur self compassion regardless of how u contracted it.

They’re my only partner at the moment, and I haven’t had any other partner in a while. But they had never had any intimacy aside from me

when was the last time you got tested ? either you’ve had it for a while or they’re not being truthful about who they’ve been with.

A month before, but the doctors didn’t test for the STI I have. They claimed it was for another reason (it was not an STI) but recently I tested again.
