i recently found out that i got chlamydia from this dude i've been hooking up with, ugh. idk if he has been with other people since he's been with me. but i'll give him the benefit of the doubt because he swears on his life that he's only been with me since he's been seeing me.i dont think he knew he had it cuz it's one where u cant tell right? and so, i've been taking the medication for it and it's been lookin like it's goin away.if he jacks himself off since it's wise for him not to stick that thing in anyone right now, and then he fingers me with his fingers, would i still get chlamydia from his fingers like would it transfer to his fingers then me again if he did that?i dunno how stds work i mean, i know the basics, but i dont know stuff like that. does anyone know what i am saying?sorry if i am confusing. i am just in shock right now because i never thought i would ever get a STD. i was so mad when i found out i didn't know what to think now.

I feel really stupid for asking this

You both need to be treated or you'll keep passing it back and forth. Until he's been treated, keep your pants up.

The situation is different for different STDs, so anyone can be forgiven for not knowing details of what is safe.
I hope your boyfriend is also on the antibiotics. If untreated, chlamydia can spread: in males it can lead to epididymitis and occasionally it can infect the prostate.
He should be very careful about washing his fingers - using an antibacterial gel would be desirable. Chlamydia is caused by a bacterium, and in a male it will be present at the tip of the urethra at all times, not just at ejaculation. Furthermore, if it gets in the eye it causes a conjunctivitis (trachoma) that can lead to blindness.

Is this the same guy from before?Thats harsh:( Id be really upset too.

Ya, I've been seeing a guy for a few months now. It wasn't the cousins that I kind of liked but I had eventually found someone better a few weeks later after I realized I didn't want the cousins anymore since they weren't worth it, either. I finally found a good one who has treated me better than most who answers me during the day too and not just at night whenever he feels like it.
We worked things out and have been still hanging out. Yeah, it sucks that it happened to us. :frowning: He is the sweetest person I've ever hung out with.

I've been bugging him to go get tested so I hope he has, too. I'm going to see him next week and ask again in person. :PI haven't seen him since I found out I had it, but it's alright, though, since we couldn't do anything anyway and I don't want to get it again, lol. I actually want it more than he does all the time, lol. but we do talk.
-
Well.. if he doesnt get tested u will know where you two stand. (should be over)
-
He probably can't give you chlamydia if he's fingering you but you two should refrain from any sex until your both done with your treatment or you'll just pass it back and forth and you'll always have an STD. Also remember there are a lot of non curable ones out there so use protection!
