Does he deserve a second chance after he lied about wearing a condom?

Question - (17 January 2012) 28 Answers - (Newest, 18 January 2012)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I have been dating this guy for a couple of months. He's nice to me, although he has a bit of a problem telling the truth.

He does not like wearing protection as he says he doesn't feel anything and the rubber irritates him. I finally agreed to go on the pill after my next period which is in two weeks.

Thing is, we were doing it last night. And he wore a condom. Later while I was clearing out the garbage, I came across the condom and it was completely dry! As if it were not used at all. I confronted him, at first he denied everything and later admitted that he removed the condom as we were doing it! I was shocked. I'm in a country were emergency contraceptives are banned and I have told him repeatedly that I do not want to get pregnant and yet he did this. He said that he came outside, and later changed the story saying that he did not cum at all. I don't remember seeing him cum outside and since I have never felt a man cum inside me, I didn't even realize if he finished inside.

I am pretty upset right now. He says he removed it as we were doing it coz it was irritating him, but I've told him that he broke my trust in him. Am I over-reacting? Or do guys do this all the time? He said I won't get pregnant as he did not cum. But the reason I am more upset is the fact that he deceived me, when he knew that I am totally against doing it without protection. He wore it in front of me, then removed it, and then put it back towards the end so when I saw him, it felt as though he had been wearing it all along. He says hes sorry, but I don't know if I can trust him anymore. Should I give him another chance?

Tisha-1 agony auntI might consider warning other women about this guy. He sounds like he's likely to spread STDs and cause unwanted pregnancies. I know that would be hard to do but, um, eek, with a creep like him on the loose?

I hope everything goes well for you.

OP this scumbag doesn't even deserve a good bye, he deserves nothing. His condom excuse in the first place was bullshit. Most of us guys prefer not wearing one but know it's a necessity, especially in your case when it is a non-negotiable condition of your consent. If rubber irritates us then we go get non-latex condoms to use. What he did was as bad what person12345 suggests. You said no to sex without a condom, you didn't give your consent to that which makes what he did not only immoral but illegal. Nobody is allowed to circumvent non-consent OP, if a girl refuses to have sex with me and I wait until she's asleep to have sex with her and then hope she doesn't find out I did that, well I don't think I need to tell you what that is.

A female reader, YouWish United States +, writes (18 January 2012):

YouWish agony auntPerson is correct. This would be an issue of sexual assault. Depending on where you live, it can best either be pursued criminally or civilly. However, you missed the window of proof as far as DNA goes, and in order to win the battle of your word against his, you'd need to have another conversation with him about it...only this time, it'll need to be recorded. Remember, he's a better liar than you are.

As for what?! He cheated on you and you're still with him? Why do you hate yourself so much?? He's sleeping around, further exposing you to disease, and then ditching the condom.

Chigirl's statement about semen dripping from you after sex is true the majority of the time, unless your Liar is either a masturbation junkie or you two do it like mad rabbits on adrenaline, in which case it's possible that he didn't shoot a massive load of the thick white Hellman's, but rather thin and weakling milk of magnesia, in which case it could have been mistaken for the wetness you generated yourself during sex.

This is verified as being by the original poster of the question

Yes. He is a liar. I'm kind of ashamed to admit it, but in these short months together, he already cheated on me once yet I took him back. Shouldn't have I guess.

24 answers telling me to kick him out of my life. Guess that doesn't leave me with much choice other than to do exactly what you all told me to do. Just hope I don't get pregnant though.

Thank you all so much for your answers. Appreciate it.

If he's going against your agreement of protection, that is a clear violation. He needs a real lesson in honesty here and respect.. do not accept any apology from him. Get rid of him and put him and his dry rubber in the trash together.

A female reader, anonymous, writes (17 January 2012):

He doesnt deserve a second chance. If that is one of his moves during sex, how do you know he hasnt been doing that with other girls before you and picked up an infection or disease? Has he been tested since you met him? If not, get yourself tested at a sexual health clinic and have a pregnancy test too. Sorry but he is dangerous, selfish and sneaky. He also lies and has no regard for you at all. Why would you want to give someone like that a second chance when he has no respect for you? Dont be tempted to stay with him because he cries about not meaning to upset you. He is not a good person. A decent guy would never behave the way he has!

A female reader, chigirl Norway +, writes (17 January 2012):

chigirl agony aunt"He has a bit of a problem telling the truth", what a cute way to sugar-coat a liar.

If he finished inside of you you would have known because it'd be dripping out of you as you sat up/as he pulled out. On the condition that he had a lot of cum.

But even so, he obviously has no respect for you. This isn't a boy being nice to you. This is a boy being a selfish prick. Get your head on straight, dump the idiot. You are not over-reacting you are under-reacting. You're sitting here justifying him saying "it irritated him". Then he shouldn't have sex if it is so bloody irritating for him. Sheez. And then the "he has a bit of a problem telling the truth" just makes me think there are more things he isn't honest and open about.

If you put your trust in this man again then you're a fool. Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me. Remember that. He fooled you. Are you going to let him do it again?

NO! Walk away from this nut case.

Yes, I agree with advice below. 2 weeks from your period you are very likely to be pregnant. Unless you want a child with your wreckless partner you must seek help even if you you have to make him buy you an air ticket. Afterwards thing hard about whether you want a relationship with a guy who cares so little about you.

A female reader, YouWish United States +, writes (17 January 2012):

YouWish agony auntSorry about my language, but HOLY SHIT!

First, if you're not yet on the pill, I'd recommending quickly getting the morning after pill and taking it without delay. Given that your period is two weeks away, you're at very high risk for pregnancy.

Second, as other people have also said, he's exposed you to STD's. This is bad, as I'm sure that he wasn't tested before becoming sexually active with you.

Third, do not ever let him touch you again. Do not ever believe him again, and kick him to the curb. This should horrify you to the point of killing any feelings you had for him.

You already knew he had a problem with telling the truth. Why are you wasting time with him? Two months, and he's abusing your trust. You're lucky it wasn't a year down the line and he's committing fraud with your personal information or something like that.

I would never speak to him again except to tell him never to see you again. This is ultimate deal breaker. I sympathize with a guy not liking a condom, but tough beans. They make them out of different materials to avoid discomfort, and there are so many other ways to have an orgasm. He could have stopped the sex, pulled out, and asked you to relieve him orally or whatever. For him to say "I didn't finish" after initially saying "I came outside". BS. Total and utter BS. You can't believe a word he says.

To give him a second chance means that you believe you're not worth a real man, and that you're only worth being lied to, put in danger and did I mention LIED TO? Drop him.

This is not someone who has any respect whatsoever for you or your well-being. What if he had an STD, what if you were ovulating, he literally could have ruined your entire life.

A male reader, Kyle007 United States +, writes (17 January 2012):

How in the world did he put it back on without you noticing? Putting on a condom takes a little work, you know, and putting one back on, I don't even know if it is possible.

Anyway, playing devil's advocate, it is hard, in the heat of passionate lovemaking, to stop and say "sorry, I can't continue because this condom is irritating".

That being said, this could have been premeditated.

Vaginal foam or jelly can be a useful alternative.

Has he lied about anything else? How is your relationship otherwise?

Its totally up to you whether or not you want to forgive him, and even if you do, you can't do the condom thing any more. Its too big a risk. Use birth control that you control. That is the best way for a woman to have peace of mind.

Also ask him if he wants to have children now. You never know, he just might.
