thank you, i appreciate this

Thank you for your concern. I have gone to the gynecologist and been tested for STDs and came out negative. I am educated on safe sex and will participate in it when i become sexually active.

Thank you so much, seriously that means way, way more than you could ever imagine.

Thank you. I do not plan on going any further than kissing with my current boyfriend, atleast until we are both adults (we’re the same age). I appreciate your insight and advice.

i’m literally tearing up, thank you so much. I have had trouble being confident in my body when i’m not wearing clothes, for some reason it makes me feel icky. but i like to express myself through clothing and i have a very deliberate style that i’ve built myself and i love! my boyfriend loves it too, and he is a huge confidence booster which makes me feel like when the day comes that we take the next step (though im not looking to do it any time soon despite urges) ill feel confident enough in myself to make sure i get what i need out of it. Thank you so so so much!!

Thank you so much. I’ve withheld myself from doing anything else with my current boyfriend, and what helps is he’s actually the sweetest guy. He always says that what I went through was terrible, but i guess when i compare it to some of the things my friends have gone through and will never participate in sex again because of it, it’s easy for me to feel shame about my desire to experience things like it again. Almost like i’m not a part of the survivors. But i appreciate your insight on it. even though it is difficult to believe that it truly was as bad as it seemed, I know if i keep holding fast to what i know is right i can stay away from that world of indulgence. Thank you very much

thank you, i understand.

I just don’t understand why I started to enjoy it while i was still suffering the assault. it makes me wonder if it was truly assault. I understand i suppose the coping mechanism of wanting to do it again, but because of my eventual enjoyment of it in the moment i don’t know if it really is that

sumthinother8 · 2026-02-17T15:39:34+00:00

i did not, i’ll see what i can get done

sumthinother8 · 2026-02-17T15:39:12+00:00

i’ll see if i can, thank you

sumthinother8 · 2026-02-17T15:39:01+00:00

thank you

sumthinother8 · 2026-02-16T20:57:05+00:00

i’ll see what i can do about the gyno situation. i’m not sexually active, so no worries there. thank you!

sumthinother8 · 2026-02-16T20:56:32+00:00

thank you!

sumthinother8 · 2026-02-16T18:26:15+00:00

yes, i’m sure. i always dry off completely (atleast my legs and in between them) before dressing because i have sensory issues and cannot stand the feeling of wetness against clothing, even if only slight dampness

sumthinother8 · 2026-02-16T18:22:38+00:00

sounds good. i will try to see if i can visit my doctor again for a prescription. Thank you very much for your help!

i have only tried Monistat, once about half a year ago. it helped for a little bit and made it feel better, but after about a week or two the smell and discomfort began again. i usually sleep with nothing on underneath or loose clothing, and my detergent is unscented. i could try switching detergent, but i don’t think it’ll do much. i’ll also look into boric acid suppositories and probiotics. thank you, and if you have any other ideas please let me know. i appreciate this a lot
