Hi Vixen, My advice for anyone who thinks that they may have been exposed but
haven't shown signs yet... is to keep on living your life as if you haven't had
it. There's no need to worry and think that you have Genitalwarts if you haven't
had a breakout yet. Once you do have a breakout, it's your responsiblitiy to
tell your partner. It's the responsible and respectable thing to do, "how would
you like it if your partner had HIV and didn't tell you?!!!" (worldwide 2002; 40
mil people had HIV, 5 mil become infected yr, 3 mil died yr) But then again, if
everyone was telling the truth STDs wouldn't be such a problem. Have fun, but be
careful ;) let me know if you have any other questions... J

Yeas, I did know that the ones I had on my fingers were a strain of
HPV. I've heard that there are a lot of different kinds too. It's
pretty creepy, actually. We didn't have oral contact, just some
mutual masturbation type stuff, so hopefully I will be okay. It's
sad because he was the best sexual partner I ever had, but there's
no way in hell that I would have any kind of sex with him now. I
know that anyone I am with could have it, but knowing for sure that
he does gives me the willies. I have made a point, at my Dr's
suggestion, to notify any new partners that I had a partner who
developed it, and to get regular pap tests. He said he's never going
to have sex again, but from what I heard, he is, and on his own
admittal, he is not going to notify those he has been with about it.
I notified one girl I knew, but felt funny spreading his "business".
I didn't know what else to do but to empower her with the knowledge.

that a reg wart is a strain of hpv. There is suppossedily almost
100 strains of hpv and only about (i have heard) 15 or so strains
actually causes the genital warts your ex had. You can certainly
become infected by touching a wart, but as far as fluid
secretions.... i really don't know?!!
> You have to remember that ANY FUILD, including "precum", cum, or
any discharge containing dna from your bf can infact infect you if
it does find a way into you body. If he gave you oral than you may
contract it, as well. There is such a thing as "Oral HPV WARTS! They
have the same symptoms as genital but inside your mouth and throat.
It is a fairly uncommon type but, i have heard that it is a very
painful kind and becoming more common. Only about 5 percent
actually get this kind. It is contracted via Oral sex. I really can
not answer your fluid question. Because as far as i know, you could
have had oral sex, not swallowed but still contracted it, or
just ...."wewww i touch the cum with my finger" kinda touch.? What
kind of contact did you have??? J
