For the past few weeks I've had what I thought were friction burns down below, after jogging / Zumba and even sex. Was using sudocreme but it didn't really help. Then I thought maybe it's contact dermatitis from the sudocreme.
Googled a few photos and I'm almost 100% sure I have HSV2 I've never even had a cold sore! Been married and faithful to my husband for almost 25yrs and only one prior partner at school age 16 (both of us virgins for sure) Husband says I'm his only partner.
I know I'm not lying. My husband, well, he has been abusive before and goes through extreme mood swings. Two years ago I found half a pack of viagra in his briefcase and he swears blind he took it with me and I agreed to it (I didn't and I'm damned sure he didn't take it with me because he never lasts that long). He changed his story and says I was asleep when he took it
Long story short, I'm working up the courage to visit the Communicable Disease Center and get tested. Where we live, he will know I've been there because he is my sponsor and receives a text message when I use my bank card or health insurance. Maybe I should visit the gynae instead? And what the fuck do I do when it turns out he's given me an STI?
If I confront him, he will outright lie. He will accuse me because my DH is 'never wrong'
I don't even care if he's fucking other women. I got over that two years ago and have accepted that I'm married to a narcissist (been through all that discovery and pain and living with it. Best thing is I know it's not my fault anymore! Yay!)
Sorry if I sound so cold. I've been through shit with my OH and I'm one of those women who's trapped in an abusive marriage. I deal with it my own way and keep my kids protected as best I can.
Till now it's never been possible to prove he's cheated on me. He's a Man of God and a regular where we worship (if only they knew).
How do I persuade him to take an STI screen?
I'm so fucking angry that he's put me at risk I'm not even thinking of other diseases. Too numb to even process this latest crap
