Re: Transporting condoms and lube

Thanks for the reply, Sam!

That's probably the best idea. I'm going to keep my lube in my suitcase, and buy new condoms when I get to where I'm going. I'm planning on stopping at a few places along the way, so I'll be leaving them in my truck for awhile, and I'd rather not risk it.

Transporting condoms and lube

Hello everyone, I haven't posted to the boards in awhile. Next month, I will be travelling across the United States for my new job. I have my orientation in another state than the one I live in, and then my employer will send me to a job site in probably another state. I'll stay there until that job...

Re: Friendless, single, lonely

Hello moonlight, and thank you for the reply. I'm not sure what my strategy is for visiting nursing homes, other than calling and seeing if they let people with no relations visit. A lot of the people in my class are the sort of 'country-type' (even though they go to school in a city, and I wouldn't...

Re: Friendless, single, lonely

Thanks for the reply, Mo. I definitely agree that making friends is a lot harder when you get older. A lot of the people in my class are a different kind of people than I am, and we don't exactly share interests. I get along with a few of them, but I can't say it's enough to make a friendship with o...

Friendless, single, lonely

I don't know where to begin, so here goes: about halfway through January, I broke up with my girlfriend of six months. I was having doubts about being serious with the first person that I actually got serious with (that was the longest relationship for both of us, and the first real "I love you...

Re: STD Testing and Insurance

Just thought I'd leave an update, I had my appointment yesterday. Aside from the waiting times (I was there about two hours from getting there to leaving), it went by just fine. They were also completely understanding of my desire to not use my parent's insurance, and I was able to pay cash after th...

Re: STD Testing and Insurance

Hello Heather, it's been awhile, I'm pleasantly surprised you remember me. Much appreciated for the reply, I was thinking about calling and seeing what they said, so I'll do that tomorrow. I'll look into the sliding-scale fee, that would be a good idea. If they ask if I have insurance, should I tell...

STD Testing and Insurance

Shortly after leaving my last relationship, I started talking to a girl I had sexted and casually talked to for a couple of months over the last few years in between me dating other people. I'm definitely taking a relationship break for awhile, but it was nice to have someone to talk to. I visited h...

Re: My quest for healthcare has hit some bumps in the road

Hey Karyn, thanks for your input! My school does offer free counseling, and I took advantage of that while I was there, and found it very helpful. But you are correct in stating that it doesn't do me much good while I'm at home. In fact, I think I've got more things to deal with here then I did at s...

Re: My quest for healthcare has hit some bumps in the road

I would say that I don't believe they see a need for me to continue seeing her. After what caused me to need a therapist in the first place, and some problems in my Junior year of HS, I pretty much stopped seeing her, although I did see her once or twice (?) when I came back from school on breaks. A...

Re: My quest for healthcare has hit some bumps in the road

I think that would be the most reasonable next step. Except it's always a bit awkward (?) to bring it up. I think they might overreact to me seeing her on a more regular basis (maybe once a month or so). I mean, I am in college right now, and that's a lot to process, so that could be a reasonable ex...

Re: My quest for healthcare has hit some bumps in the road

UPDATE, PART 2: I just got off the phone with my insurance company. Due to me being a dependent, they are unable to make my EOBs paperless, unless I felt that I was in danger if they were sent. That not being the case, there's nothing they can do.

Re: My quest for healthcare has hit some bumps in the road

UPDATE: Last nite I told my parents about getting a doctor, and they seemed okay with it. Surprisingly.

I still need to call my insurance company about the EOBs, they haven't called back yet.

Re: My quest for healthcare has hit some bumps in the road

Hey Sam, They've always seen it as a good thing that I'm independent, and that if I want something done I'm the type of person to go get it done, so I believe that would be a good starting point. I'm planning on calling my insurance company on Friday if they haven't called me back by then, and I'll ...

My quest for healthcare has hit some bumps in the road

Hello everyone, I posted last year, about my attempts to acquire healthcare ( LINK HERE ). I never really made any progress with it. And then I went off to college, which has a nice health center. But that doesn't solve the problem that I have no primary care provider, and haven't been to an actual ...

Re: Regarding STIs, safer sex and relationships (also herpes)

Hey Heather! It's great to hear from you again. It has been awhile, hasn't it? College has brought about some big changes for me, and along with patience, I've been able to find myself a really great partner. A lot of the things that I was worried about, including braces (which I get off this summer...

Re: Regarding STIs, safer sex and relationships (also herpes)

Thanks for the reply, Sam! Although I do tend to worry, I feel that I also worry about things more than they're really worth, and when I actually get around to it, it's never as bad as I worried it would be. I will admit that I would like to go without barriers, if both of us test negative, and we'r...

Regarding STIs, safer sex and relationships (also herpes)

Hello everyone, To begin, my girlfriend and I have been together for a few months. We're also exclusive and monogamous. Last Thursday, we went and got tested for STIs (chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, and HIV). We should have the results sometime this week (probably Monday or Tuesday). We're both our...

Ah, I have some questions about my genitalia, and some other non-sexual related health questions. And some other things, I'm still thinking.

Sorry it took me two posts to understand your question.

Hello all, For the past few weeks I have wanted to talk to a doctor regarding my sexual heath and ask some questions. However, I have run into some issues with being able to. I don't know which order to start this in, but I suppose I'll start here: this would not have been an issue last year, as I w...

Re: Circumcision and body image

Thank you for the reply, Kittens! I appreciate the long reply. I thought about asking my parents why they had it done, but I figured that isn't the conversation I want to have with my conservative Christian parents. Sex in my household is a taboo subject, and isn't really something that anyone reall...
