All of these are sensitive questions. But they are important, and you have a responsibility to ask. If someone is unwilling to talk, you shouldn t have sex. Don t do drugs of any kind. Delay sexual intercourse.
Abstinence is the only sure protection.
If you do have sexual intercourse, wait until you are in a long-term, mutually faithful relationship such as marriage. Follow religious, cultural, and social traditions that favor postponing intercourse until marriage. If you have sexual intercourse outside of a mutually faithful, long-term relationship with an uninfected partner, use a latex condom whenever having any type of sexual intercourse. Do not make decisions about sexual intercourse while under the influence of alcohol or other drugs. A lot of people believe all sorts of myths about AIDS myths that can be very harmful.
