writes:Do you think it is possible to live a meaningful happy fulfilling life when you have no partner, children etc but a great career and a close group of friends? Im asking this because due to a cheating ex I have an STD. I am an extremly sensitive person that has been hurt so many times in the past. I got this awful thing because of my ex cheating on me he was the guy I thought id marry. It turns out that he was just using me to pay for the bills/house and as he so elegantley put it never loved me...who would.I know an STD is "apparently' not the end of the world blah blah but I could not look a person I love in the face and say that I have genital warts........ waiting for the revulsion, disgust, pity etc that would follow. Iv always desperatley wanted a family, I love babies and children and I cry every time I see one at the moment because ill never have that.Will the rest of my life be miserable or can I make something of it? Any suggestions? Iv been thinking about joining the defence forces.

 Plenty of women with STDs have babies. So you can still have a baby, just Caesarian (sp).

Dear Lovable,Okay, so you have genital warts, so what. You still deserve love and believe me, someone will love you. It's not the end of the world. I've heard so many stories about couples with genital warts and couples with one person with it. Don't let this guy taint your image of men and love. When you meet someone who loves you, they won't care about your STD, they will care about you. Here in America, I believe 1 out of 4 adults have an STD, I'm not sure what it is where you are. There is a chance you might meet someone in your situation and if not, someone will love you even with the STD.Please don't be so hard on yourself. Best of luck to you.You are lovable.

One idea that popped into my head is that there must be STD positive dating sites. I did a quick google search and found that they do exist. It might be easier if your prospective partner knew from the outset that you have an STD. It might not be the easiest thing in the world, but it must be better than bringing up the subject later on.
