Ummm, yes, duh? If someone responds differently i'd be surprised. Is this really a worthy topic?

I think he means further then sexually, i think he meant emotionally and the general relationship. Like maybe, if you loved a girl, truly for her and not just sexually, but found out she had an STD (but you didn't contract it yet), would you still be with her?

I think there should be more testing to see if stupidity is an STD. Because I swear to Thor that over the years I have gradually became rather insipid and asinine....

But anyways..

Even though if you use the right precautions and treatments everything should be fine...although I know there would be part of everyone's mind yelling "Yoora dirtay hoooor!"

Haha, well think in the opposite gender's shoes. If you got an STD from your significant other (I like saying that XP) than wouldn't you be pretty mad at him/her? If he/she KNEW that he/she had an STD than by all means be enraged! If she didn't know than how can you blame her? I guess you could say, "Why weren't you checked?" but for that situation, it all depends on what kind of person you are. Are you the kind of girl/guy that forgives and forgets or the guy/girl that never lets something like that go.

It definately would. There would be major trust issues. Not to mention kids down the line would be a problem if you were serious. Wondering how the other person got them. While I've dated people that have had other partners before me, I would be bothered if someone was irresponsible enough to contract and STD.

Cough* Yeah. For most (in an ideal society) it would cause tension and suspicion between the couple. Its a big deal, unless having AIDs is normal for your family.

Or not. Who wants a list of the various STDs and the way they can impact upon your health and relationships?

Right now you may be thinking that STDs are in a separate world, but really, they're not. I'd say that at least a sixth to an eighth of sexually active people have had or currently have an STD. Far more common than people think.

Actually, 50% of all people will contract HPV in their lifetime. Some STD's are extremely common and easy to get.

Oh yes, I should add: I meant actual clinical pathology...I should also have mentioned the various STDs that colonise you and lay dormant until you're immuno-compromised!

Um, of course it can. It can afect ones love life. But if you are safe with it then it will be fine. But it you know you have it then you shouldnt use it for plessure. But if you wanna live by God, have sexual intercourse as a love, compasion, and faith but not for physcial plessure. But as long as love the person you are with, it wont matter.
