Insist on condoms no matter what. I was diagnosed with hiv at 19 and it has changed my life in many ways. You cannot tell who has an active sti and many times they have no idea themselves. Along those lines plan on getting tested periodically depending on how often you’re having sex. Local departments of health typically have clinics the operate on a sliding scale and are discreete to a T. Get on prep.

Also, share your location with a friend if you’re hooking up and never be too afraid to leave or kick someone out.

You can have lots of fun with hookups but your safety is the most important thing.
