What Health Concerns Should Be The First Thing In Your Mind When Deciding To Be Intimate
The primary health concern while dating is the transmission of disease through sexual intercourse. To prevent the transmission of HIV and other sexually-transmitted diseases, it's of the utmost importance that a condom be used during intercourse. If your date objects, then maybe it's not yet right for the two of you to be so intimate.
When you are sleeping with someone, technically you are sleeping with all the people that person has slept with. It may be ironic, but when you are dating and getting to know someone, you are hoping for the best about them, but you also really don't want to know all of their past personal history. You are hoping that your date's past personal history doesn't include sordid details such as promiscuity. If your date is totally honest and open and reveals such details, it's certainly going to affect your opinion and likely in a negative way.
Without getting every bit of intimate detail, you have to therefore make a judgment about your new date and about the extent to which they may have been involved in risky behaviour. Bear in mind that risky behaviour also means drug use, as a dirty needle can also transmit HIV, the virus that causes AIDS.
Although HIV is the most serious sexually-transmitted virus to be concerned about, you can't forget other sexually-transmitted diseases such as gonorrhoea, syphilis and Chlamydia. They still exist in individuals in society at large and they can also cause very serious ailments.
The moral of the story is to be safe when becoming intimate with a dating partner so as to avoid unnecessary health concerns.
