no way man, you're not being rude. I have taken prep and will when i can afford it again, and have have dozens of tests in my life, but it's a constant worry. Luckily I've never caught anything not treatable.I need some advice from my fellow peeps.... I was chatting with this guy and we were making plans to meet up (considering he was a top I'd be bottoming), I asked him if he used condoms and he said occasionally. I then asked if he was on PrEP and he said no and he tested some time ago negative. I know topping is a lower risk of catching HIV, but I didn't feel comfortable with that. Am I just being a bit rude/prudish in asking that? While I am on PrEP myself, and am testing every 3 months, he wasn't.
For those that are in the hookup scene, how do you all handle asking the questions for STI testing and if they are on PrEP? Or do you just go with the flow and just pray and test frequently. I just feel lost sometimes
I was going through a phase of meeting a few guys, but people were always happy to use a johnny, but I have done plenty raw, especially BJs which i know is just as risky. I'm sooo lucky.
I used to go to a dating society where I met my ex, and i did some work for, for rich guys/sportspeople where they all had an app and if they were in date for their tests etc they got a different wristbands to show when they had last been clean. It is quite a closed shop and expensive to be part of. It's a good system if people aren't shady with it, but there is nothing like that available to normal people here.
Regards your Q; I don't ask, i've pointed lads towards using a johnny, i keep them on me. Have spent a lot of worried days after not being protected tho
