does anybody else go casually chat, go on a few dates, learn everything about each other go, show each other our favorite shows, binge then together, have tons of unprotected sex, learn new kinks, act like a married couple for a few months, then slowly fall out of love, start having poor communication and broken routines, paranoia and self insecurity sabotaging every opportunity to fix it, then just stop talking and become strangers, no, just me? okay. I’m fine.

          Oh right, straight sex. Duh. I suppose there are reversible surgical options to prevent conception, but I imagine most people don’t do that. Completely slipped my mind that sex can result in children because of how that has never affected me, despite my wife and I joking about trying to get each other pregnant all the time.

        Does this seem the kind of person who either gets tested for STDs or has had so few partners that they have practically no chance to pick up an STD?

          Getting tested is easy and usually free. I get tested just for the hell of it every time I see my endocrinologist. Seems like most people I meet for hookups also get tested relatively frequently. It’s just way easier when you can show a potential partner a recent health report.
