I was alarmed by this as i have always been tested and i know he has slept with about 15 people. he said that he has always used condoms apart from with 2 other long term girlfriends. I asked him if we could go and get tested just as a precaution, but he advised that in his opinion this is only for 'tramps' and he knows he doesnt have anything. he has reluctantly agreed but seems to be very annoyed at me. How do i deal with this? Am i being out of order?Thanks for taking the time to read this, your views would be really appreciated. xxx

 You're not out of order. He needs to get tested for his own health and yours. He can act as annoyed as he likes, it's an immature reaction to a very adult and responsible thing he ought to be doing. As Frank suggested, maybe he is nervous about the results.
But nervous or not, don't accept no for an answer, get him to the doctor and get him tested.

He is being immature and stupid.
Some people are scared of reality, and getting an STI is a dose of reality that lots of people can not handle.
You are doing the right thing. Your future children (with or without him) will be grateful.
