This is something that has been on my mind for a little while now. This is not something that has happened to me yet, luckily, but just want to know how other would handle it is this happened to them.

Let's say you go to your doctor for a normal routine check up to find out that you have an STD. Could be any of the many out there. You are currently single and your not the type of person that sleeps around or have a lot of past partners but are unsure where you may have picked it up.

Do you go back to all your ex's and tell them about it so they can get checked if they like?

Does anyone know if there are Legal things that could come up if you do or don't tell past or current partners?

I'd say the best approach in this situation is to get yourself treated and let anyone else that may have it find out for themselves if it's nothing life threatening. Can you imagine how awkward it would be calling your exes about that?

Depends on the STD of course... always best to tell your other ex partners to go and have themselves checked. Of course, depends how long ago you were with the exes also.... Not sure about the legal aspects...

Legally if you don't tell them your in trouble. you have the responsibility to tell them anything you think that they should know. Basically Just to warn them that they should get tested.

Question Asker I understand about not telling them that there could be trouble, but if you do tell them could something come up? - 8 months ago
Answerer No you did all that you could. Its not like you can sue someone because they got an std from you. Its not the end of the world. Now if you didn't tell them then you would have to worry. - 8 months ago
