Should I Tell This Guy He Has Warts?

Hey y'all I'm new. A quick Google search led me here and I figured it would be a good place to ask this touchy question.

I recently hooked up with this guy and we are sort of friends with benefits and have hooked up before. However, the most recent time I noticed while I was going down on him that he most definitely has genital warts. I'm educated on this because I have a background in medicine and clinically, it's definitely suspicious that he has them. I've also had them in the past and have been clear nearly 4 years at this point. We've always used condoms and I know that doesn't always help but since I'm familiar with the virus, I know it's easily treated.

I mean the guy has to know he has them. There weren't many but they were in a visible spot for him. I feel like i should tell him in case he is in denial. And so he can get treated as to not pass them around to others.

Thanks in advance.

 

I'm sure he knows ...

 

You should quit seeing him; he wasn't considerate enough to tell you he had warts before you had sex with him.

 

Gotta Love The Way You Go On The Internet To Tell Us.......But You Haven't Got The Guts To Tell Him.

Stop Wasting Our Time......



Cheers Glen.

 

What tumblingdice said. Unless he's a complete idiot he must know he has them but doesn't mention this to you? I take things like that seriously. IMO he obviously doesn't give a shit about anybody but himself.

 

Seriously, huh, what?

 

I'm not sure why you even have to ask the f*cking question. Of course you tell him. It's the ONLY responsible thing to do (other than to stop shagging him until he gets it sorted).

And you have a a background in medicine... Really...?

 

don't tell him that he has them; he already knows. ask him what the fuck he's doing hooking up with people and not telling them.

 

I knew a girl that pulled that sort of stunt. Not saying exactly what they have. It's criminal as far as I understand.

I'd stay away from that guy. Just imagine what else he could try to sneak by.

 

Try just bringing it up casually like, "Hey, you've got warts on your man junk."

 

On second thought, how long have you been knocking boots with the guy? How do you know you didn't give him these warts?

 

Cut it out. Warts don't kill people. This was more of a question on how to be a human being because I've never had to be like oh hey you have this.

 

Literally had a GYN exam a week before we started hookinh up. 100% clean on my end.

 

Lmfao exactly what I was planning on saying actually. Dudes are so dumb they ignore things so I'm thinking he probably thinks they're skin tags or ingrown hairs

 

I sure do. Low risk HPV effects something like 98% of sexually active people. It's more common than you think and also treatable. Like any sort of wart, it's a skin virus that stays in the skin even if you're clear but the risk of spreading it is much much lower, even not even a risk in most cases unless you have active lesions.

I got it from an ex boyfriend 6 years ago. While we had been dating about 6 months and were using condoms. Its pretty unavoidable honestly. We were both treated and dated each other for quite a few years. Everyone gets their panties in a bunch over it but it's so common, you'd be surprised.

 

maybe he is terrified of a doctor dabbing liquid nitrogen onto his pecker and then scraping off the frozen warts???

tell him make sure the doctor isn't to old and shaky.....those sex clinic doctors are usually like a hundred years old.....

 

maybe that was his way of say "hey look what you gave me, surprise! "

one other thing, you can still spread it even though you have not had symptoms or an outbreak in quite some time.... it doesn't just simply "go away". did you bother to mention to him that you,at one point, had warts on your junk and let him decide for himself if he wanted to take that plunge ?

a simple Google search will lead you here

HPV transmission can cause genital warts or abnormal cell changes in the cervix and other genital areas that can lead to cancer. While there is no cure for HPV, the good news is the infection often clears on its own. If it does not, and treatment is needed, there are many HPV treatment options.

it seems to me that you said nothing to him to begin with and that you're avoiding embarrassment yourself, shit happens, but now it's happened to someone else.

 

I almost think it deserves some retaliatory vandalism as well!
