HPV high risk positive test

[LogicalPerson]

I read questions and answers in forum regarding HPV.  In my case I've been married for 23 years, and can definitely say that I have been truly faithful throughout my marriage.  I have my own values in the way I perceive life.  I am not religious, but see life in a logical and open minded way.  Wright and wrong (whats best for me and my handicapped child), depending on the situation, flexible.  Well, I can say (100%) my husband gave me HPV, do I believe his been unfaithful, YES.  I wasn't aware of HPV until I saw the adds on TV, then ask my OBYN to test me for it, and yes, it came out positive, did all other test, too.  They came out negative (relief).  I have high risk HPV (higher risk of acquiring cervical cancer in the future), and now need to be tested every six months.  I've taken care of my health throughout the years (jog, healthy diet, non-smoker/drinker, positive thinker).  
Well, I immediately informed my spouse that my test came out positve for high-risk HPV.  Educated him on the subject.  Without going into many details of his response, his comprehension of the situation is very limited, but that's no excuse.  It's been close to two months since I was diagnosed with HPV, and I get the impression that he still expects me to have sex with him!  Okay, is this a medical question that I am impossing, NO, but there must be other couples who are in the same situation I am.  I've inform him, that "you're a carrier of high-risk HPV, now you're inform."
Unfortunately, I'am too a carrier now.  

           Aside from what marriage represents, in todays society:       He as an individual has the right to do whatever he wants to his body and health.  He does not have the RIGHT to but another human at risk of contracting a serious STD.  It's WRONG, I understand the implications of extramarital behavior ( risks ivolved), does'nt he?.  I like who I am, think for myself, and seek what's best for this family at all times.  I am not a psychologist, but base on his past behavior and present, he has problems with who he is.  I hope the person who goes by the name "grandmother" gets a chance to read this.

If it helps, I can't see how he would have had HPV for 20 years and just now given it to you.

The longest I've ever seen anyone go without symptoms is 7 years, and we weren't even really sure of her story when she came into our clinic.

But 20 years - I don't buy it.  I would have to agree with you that he wasn't faithful.  I'm sorry you are going through this.  Have you tested for other stds?
