Please HELP...
I suffer from bad anxiety and have had fears over STDs before.
A few days ago, I had dessert with a friend of mine at a restaurant - we shared the dessert and her fork touched a part of the dessert that I ate. I normally do not share food etc with anyone because of my anxiety and phobia BUT for some reason this time I did and am now paying a HUGE price for it!
The friend who I shared the dessert with is VERY sexually active and has had numerous boyfriends - I also believe that she may have an STD.
Is it possible to have contracted an STD by this encounter??
I'm sorry if I seem so stupid and irrational, this is a real fear of mine and I can't sleep. I'm sorry.
