I will survive

I started having sex when i was 16. I thought I was in love so I lost my virginity to a complete jerk, who dumped me 3 weeks later. I was hurt and confused, I just didnt care about myself. I started having random sex. I slept with 12 men in 2 years. When I look back on this I feel so ashamed of who I was. I was 18 when I found out I was infected with HPV. I just remember thinking how could this happen to me? I was ashamed, hurt, devastated. Who will want me now? It took me 6 months to relize that I was lucky. I was lucky because this is all I have to suffer for what I was doing. I could have gotten aids or something a lot worse than HPV. I was always worried about getting pregnant, I never event thought about getting an std. My advice to anyone who reads my story is if you know or think you have hpv then get tested. Your not alone. HPV is not the end of the world. It definately changes your life, but it will only make you a stronger person. Remember that anything that doesnt kill you makes you stronger. I thought I was gross and ugly for a long time. I thought noone would ever want me, but you get through that. I have now met a man who excepts me and loves me for me and doesnt focus on my mistakes in my life. So dont let this setback destroy you. Let it make you stronger.

I'm completely envious of your
positive attitude. I am recently
diagnosed with HPV and am just getting
back to the point where I don't dwell
on it all day. I still feel ugly and
unwanted if I were to ever meet
someone. I don't talk to girls
anymore nor party...I've been avoiding
the whole scene. I hope I can be as
positive as you at some point.

hey, jj, hit me up. sounds like you
could use some compassion and
understanding. we are all in the same
boat, and it ain't that bad. actually,
i welcome anyone to this site to write
me 'cause i know that the hurt ain't so
bad with good company. i'm a 25-year-
old lady. rad777sweet@yahoo.com
