I don't know what to say! What is the best, non-rudest, least akward way to tell someone you want them to get tested before you sleep with them?
[ ] Want to answer more questions in the Sexual Health and Reproduction category? Maybe give some free advice about: General Sex Questions?
Just tell them that you would like for you both to go and get tested together so that you can be sure that your both clean and can have better sex because you won't have to worry about STDs. Thats prolly the most subtle way to do it. No easy way of going about this! ]
first off, that is great that you feel like that. I know when i first did anything, i was too chicken to say that and i was scared he might have thought i was accusing him of something. But if it is someone you are really serious wiht and are ready to have sex with, you should be pretty comfortable with him. So just tell him. Straight up. "have you had sex before?" "Do you know if you have anything?" "I want to know for sure."
unless you are honest about your intentions you probably won't be able to talk him into it. ]
Agree to BOTH get tested so they aren't being singled out & can BOTH feel safe before sharing something intimiate. Tell them you care about your health (& his/her) as well & want to be safe. I can't understand anyone going against that. ]
Tell the person you want both of you to get tested, so you both know it's safe. That way it doesn't seem like you want them to get tested because they're gross or something. ]
Be straight forward. Tell them you really like them, but cannot risk your health and theirs if they dont get tested. Make it clear you want to be intimate and this is nothing agaisnt their personal character, but you really perfer being safe. Just let them know once they get tested they'll have a great gift waiting for them :p
Good luck and be safe,
