Totally shamed about this and if nc doesn't work, I'll be gutted.

So, I have a few funny little spots down below. I am pretty sure they are genital warts.

So, that's grim, gross, I'm upset and feel soiled.

But the other thing is this - I have had a boyfriend for the last 2 years, I have been totally faithful. Does this mean he hasn't? I dread that this is a possibility because I actually do trust him and it would be a catastrophic misjudgement on my behalf. I would be so gutted.

So, could it have laid dormant in me for 2 years plus?
Could he have passed it to me as he had it dormant (and didn't know/did know - more awful contemplations)?

Also, I just don't even know how to bring this up with him. The shame is intense because I don't know where it has come from - if I've put him at risk, I'll be equally disgusted.

Something I don't understand is I had 'some swabs' taken only a few weeks ago and everything was clear. Maybe that didn't include herpes?

If you know anything about this, please share, I'd be very thankful.

OP, I found a small lump a while ago and after frantic googling convinced myself I had warts. When I got checked out it was just a blocked duct/follicle. I think we just automatically assume that any changes in thst area are sti related but that's not the case.

Good luck with getting it checked out. The staff were lovely btw and if it had turned out to be warts they would have frozen them off there and then. I was sent off with strict instructions to step away from Google Smile
