Would u sue if your ex or bf gave you and STD/STI?

[Artemis04]

I thought the guy I was seeing was being monagamous with me but he was not. He was lying to me and was seeing me and his ex/baby mama at the same time. Well she told me he has HPV/cervical cancer/warts, which he gave her awhile back that I have now been exposed to. My mom and my best friend want me to sue him if I come back positive for it. All because he did not tell me he had it and knowing he did and put me at risk. Also, he stated to his ex that he did not care that he may have given it to me. I do not know if I have a legal leg to stand on to be able to sue him for giving me HPV if I come back positive. Personally I want his pen&^ to fall off and for him to rot in hell. But would you sue someone for giving u a STD or STI?

You can not sue over a STD. You took the risk and had sex with him.
The only thing that has ever been brought to court is someone with HIV knowingly infecting others. HPV is not going to kill you.

I am married. Vows taken, promises made, whole nine yards. I have agreed to be faithful and live with this person for better or worse till death do us part. Based on that scenario, you betcha! Because he would have violated everything we stand for and broken a contract. A legal one.

However, if you are lying down with someone you are not married to, and you both are free agents, then your expectations are unrealistic to assume he is not going to step out on you. He was with someone before he met you and will be with someone else after you. You have in essence agreed to share your sexuality. I do not believe under those circumstances you would get vary far in court. Save your money. The only one I know of which would be punishable by law is if someone slept with you and had HIV and knowing so went to bed and gave it to you. That is the same as taking a gun to your head. A death sentence so to speak.

You barely knew this guy and you were having unprotected sex.  That's your fault just as much as it was his.  Morally, he should have told you but he doesn't have to.  I know that someone can be arrested if they were infecting others with HIV and they knew they had it.  HPV is not deadly, if you have had at least 2 sexual partners in your life, most likely you have it.  It can remain dorment in your body for years.  You could've had it even from a previous partner.  So there is nothing you can do about that.  Take this experience as a lesson learned.  Use protection.

You would have to prove without a reasonable doubt that he gave it to you. That means doctors, labs, attorneys, money, time off work if applicable, witnesses. Is it worth it? Maybe, but he has to live the rest of his life knowing what he did. His conscience is his jail.

[Judy246]

also, let this be a lesson, abstinance or protection.

His ex was the one that said that I should sue him. Because he knowling has been giving out stds......HPV (gential warts), Chlyamidia, ect. which he gave her and he was sleeping with us both at the same time. I dont think I am going to sue if I do or dont have anything. I went to the dr and am waiting for my test results. He does have to live in is own hell.
