I've been posting here for a few weeks now and we seem to have a level headed bunch of folks here, so here you go, new girl I met. I know she likes me, etc etc, here is the story.
She's 22. She had sex with over 100 people. She has bone cancer, a post clamitiya (sp?)(according to her she's now STD free) disease that is slowly killing her, her ex has 27 felonies, murder being one of them, lives up the street from her and still stalks her.
I have been through a LOT in my time, but compared to her, I was born yesterday. I'm not intimidated by this as much as I am concerned. STD's can only be given to me through kissing, as sex I choose not to have until I am married, and oral is something that's completely far away. I WANT to kiss her, but I mean, 22, 100 people, so many terminal illness's... ya know? I'm being paranoid and irrational in that, but I'm trying to be safe. I've expressed all of this to her as I am expressing it to everybody here now. She says she understands.
Another dilemma is what if we really hit it off and she DOES die? I'm 22, also. Where will that leave me? How badly would it **** me up mentally?
So as you see, there are a lot of issues here already. Our second date is supposed to be in a few hours. I like this girl, and I know the proper questions I have to ask myself, and that only I can find a true answer. What I'm looking for from you folks is just opinions. Maybe one of you could look at it a way that I'm not, which would help me analyze this situation better.
