She asked me if I wanted to get tested for HIV, then I'm like NONONONO. That's a bit too extreme. She asked me if I used protection and I told her yeah. So she said I should be o.k. and should only get tested if I felt like I should. So I only got tested for gonorrhea and something else I think. But I felt like it was unnecessary and stupid for me to go when I used protection. Just paranoid I guess.

It's nice and all, and I feel more comfortable with partners who have been tested in the past, but it isn't really imperative in my eyes. weezybabyx7 Posted at 12:02 am on Oct. 24, 2008 someones a hoe.

Different procedures for different diseases. For the test I got, all I had to do was pee in a cup. I'm not sure how they do the others.

That list was so long. And there are different procedures for testing different diseases. And some cost. yes i know. but you are going to have to have it done eventually so why not then. but thats what i would do. if you feel that it wasn't needed then thats ok.
