i know this seems so mild and silly but i have never had one before and i hate the idea of getting one. It isnt a huge deal but im super anxious about it. I hooked up with a guy and he said he was totally clean and gets tested often. It coud just be a cut on the corner of my mouth from dry lips which could turn into a bactrial infection. im just so spooked rn

I wouldn't worry, everyone gets them some point in their life and Ive never heard of anyone getting a bacterial infection for a cold sore, they're really common. don't worry about it :)

Not my business but don’t you have a boyfriend? I thought I saw you post something about him in a previous post somewhere. Maybe it was some else’s post, if it was sorry in advance.

i do have a boyfriend he is awesome but we took a break for a few days and we are back together now. Me and him both needed a few days to realize that we do really wanna be together. We were both kinda freaking out and scared bout hoe serious we were getting with eachother. In that time i did something silly cause i use sexual activity to validate mtself which isnt a great way to feel better. So all i did was smoke some weed and make out with a guy and then afterwards was like nope this sucks
