If he says he doesn't know, you should demand that he get tested! But really I think if you're nervous about asking him a personal question like that when there is so much at stake, you should ask yourself if you are really ready to have sex. It would probably be ten times as awkward. I'm not telling you not to have sex with him, I'm just saying that you REAAAALLLY have to think about it. [ tasuki's advice column | Ask tasuki A Question ]

cheddar answered Monday October 3 2005, 12:37 pm: you might want to ask this question when you're not "in the mood". because this kind of question can really ruin your mood. it's a serious matter, and you don't want an STD. so, just remember that if you're comfortable enough to have sex with him, then you should be comfortable enough to ask him that.

Shellshell1006 answered Sunday October 2 2005, 4:25 pm: This happened with my boyfriend and I, too. I just directly came out and asked him if he did. He wasn't weirded out by me asking it, he was a little surprised, but you have every right to ask. Especially if he has been sexually active with other girls. You are just being cautious. And if you have time, please tell me how things worked out for you. [ Shellshell1006's advice column | Ask Shellshell1006 A Question ]

Talk about your sexual history together. You may not want to give details, because I'm sure you don't want to hear all the details about your boyfriends sexual past...But just ask him if he's ever been checked. Or instead of just attacking him with "Who all have you slept with?" you can start off with your sexual history so he doesn't feel so on-the-spot pressured. I don't know what your sexual history is...but for an example, "I've only had sex with one other guy, and he was a virgin and we used a condom, so I'm pretty sure I Don't have an STD and you have nothing to be worried about..What about you?" Of course, not in those exact words, but seriously, just say whatever comes natural. I don't think it'd be awkward.
And if for some reason he gets offended by the question, then that is his problem, because it's a perfectly normal question with two people about to have sex. You're just being careful, which is a good thing.

First, you should start out with asking him if he's had any other sexual partners. If yes, ask him if that partner(s) has had sex with anyone BEFORE him. If he answers yes, you should really just say.. I know this is weird to ask, but do you think any of them might have had an STD that you could have gotten? I just want to be safe if we want to take our relationship to the next level.
It's really nothing to feel awkward about, even though it REALLY will.
