Hi, I have read so many of the posted messages for the last couple of days, about people worry about HIV/AIDS under protected intercourse. I do understand exactly your worry and your fear. It is my very first time going to a brothel, I even put on 2 condoms!!!! Yes '2' condoms!!!!! And it is haunting me the fact that catching HIV/AIDS is still possible!!! I can't sleep, I cannot eat, can't concentrate doing anything.
HELP PLEASE!!!! Need some positive feedback to ease my F***ck*ng brain!!!! Thank you for your time.
It is my 5th weeks....still counting down 'til the 13th week.

Dear Worry,

The fact that you used a condom greatly reduced your risk of contracting hiv. Protected sex is very smart. Your exposure was minimal and when you take you 13 week test I am sure that it will be negative. Stress can play evil games on your body. That being said, do yourself a favor, don't search the net for answers because it will only feed into your fears. Listen only to the wisest on this or any other forum. There are a lot of people who have tested well beyond 13 weeks and foe some reason still cannot accept their negative results. Also, you may read posts of people who cite old information, others will just be mean about their answers to question and have not taken the time to educate themselves on the issues surrounding hiv. If I were a betting man I would bet the world that you are negative. Finally, saty away from the brothels. Find yourself someone that you can have a securely monogomous relatinship with and keep your sex in your own bedroom. I wish I had learned that lesson a long time ago. I have just taken my 13 week test and am awaiting the results.

Do not use 2 condoms either! They cause friction. I cannot help but wonder if people are so paranoid about HIV, why they engage in such high risk activities? Thats all this board is, people who are overly paranoid about HIV and do not believe their negative test results, and the activity they enggage in is not too smart.

I agree, what I did was very stupid, and may have cost me my life.

Hey TEMP go easy on everyone. Sex is one of those things that is somewhat overpowering we are mammals after all and we may not think when it comes to the mating process.Humans are entitled to make mistakes, everyone here wants support not criticism god knows they get that enough from the conservative powered media.Lets all try and be as helpful as possible!! yes ppl do tend to engage in at risk activity but driving a car is more riskier then having unprotected sex when you look at it in the big picture. Thats the problem so many ppl want to look at everything in a box instead of taking down the walls and viewing it in compariosn to the other not so risk free activities such as parking on a dark street, going to a bar, changing lanes even LOL. many more ppl have died in car accidents then from AIDS. Bottom line is ppl havent stopped driving fast just because of this fact so you cant expect everyone to strap on a condom just because the media treats AIDS like the black death of the 21st century.
