Not bleak, just real...fucking and cheating is part of life. It happens. Whether it's right or wrong is open for debate...but the shit happens everyday. There's muh-fuckaz in this forum right now that cheated on somebody yesterday, some cheating today, and some that are gonna cheat tomorrow.
Or marriage could work better if people stopped lying and checked their egos. The biggest problem seems to be that people for whatever refuse to tell the truth which makes no sense to me. Maybe too many people are acting like someone they aren't. I personally believe in good healthy relationships but there must be a lot of communication and fair amount of space when needed.
If putting the health of a loved one is up for debate on whether its right or wrong then Im obviously in the wrong culture. I realize many people cheat but its not like breathing you don't have to do it. I wonder where things turned and we all became such hapless cynics. It wasn't always like this.
Now being careless with your or your partner's health is just wrong, but is a separate issue from cheating. They are not one in the same. There are people who believe emotional cheating is worse than the physical aspect, and that cheating can happen without intercourse. Now I'm not one of those people...but they're out there.
Shiiiiitt I can get over a broken heart but AIDS and herpes ain't no joke or hpv in the case of shit men give to women. I'll take emotional cheating everyday of the week.
I can tell you from implementing the EMR/EPM systems at Montefiore Medical Center's Infectious Disease Department, and being privy to a lot of their literature, that although HIV/AIDS is blind, the majority of new cases are homosexual/bisexual black and latino males, then black women. Not to minimize the risk your partner would but you in with unsafe sexual practices...just putting the numbers out there.
Im aware that's its more than likely to be through anal sex but why be risky especially with not only your health but the health of a loved one. Your want to take risks then do it its your right but don't play mine too. Shit is real fam. And like I said we as men can transmit that hpv without knowing or having symptoms. It would kill me inside if I was responsible for giving my girl cervical cancer.
I agree with you whole-heartedly. I've cheated in the past, and I've never been selfish enough to have unprotected sex with someone while I was committed to someone else. That is just not right. Now, could I have still gotten something else that condoms can't protect you from. Oh well...I guess I'm just not a good person, lol.
The social stigma surrounding herpes is far worse than the actual condition. And there are many people out there with it, especially oral herpes, that either don't realize that a cold sore is caused by the herpes virus, or they have genital herpes but are asymptomatic and so don't know they have it. If you are sexually active on a regular basis with different partners, you may not know you carry the virus if you're not being tested.
So true. You can have it your entire life and never have an outbreak. The things I hear working in hospital settings....
Over 80 to 85% of the world population by the age of 65 has oral herpes. You can get it from sharing the same glass to kissing. However, the population doesn't have a high rate of genital herpes. Which is why the social stigma is placed. That and the fact that there isn't a cure. I personally don't want to ever catch anything so, the "No Women" clause is a plus. In addition, females lie (so do males, but I'm not go so I only mentioned females), and I am taking no chances. I have had a very good relationship with my right hand since the teenage years so I think her and I will be together till death (or decapitation) do us part.
