This. Depending on the STD, I would tell him to move out and file charges. I had ti have a full panel after ex-H cheated when I was pregnant. Gaslit the crap out of me. I finally left for good when she was 4.

Cheating on a spouse is a form of abuse.

Why should she model a dysfunctional relationship for her child, and share her home with someone she hates?

Why do you think women should have such low self esteem (and options) that they have to subject themselves and their children to this existence.

HE broke up the family, not her.The damage is done...don't make her feel like it is her responsibility.

I think this because there are just not a lot of good men out there. Might as well use them for something worthwhile. Unless she's beautiful and wealthy she's going to have a hard time finding a guy to care for her and her 5 year old.

Sorry but are you projecting here and trying to make yourself feel better about choices you have made?

Different poster. Why does it matter?

HPV could be from >12 years ago

Exactly. I got it when I was 25 from a fling, way before marriage and before the vaccine. Treated it, then it went into remission. Has returned twice and gone away twice on its own. Has come out of remission when I am under extreme stress.

I think I'm going with OPs assessment since they see it alot more. Planning to broach topic tonight after DC goes to bed. Regardless, good PSA here that this STI exists. Maybe I'm naive, but I've never even heard of it until now.

We have been quite detached and I've been unhappy but this has really taken me by surprise. We share a child who is 5. What would you do? My DH is generally dismissive and in denial on most things so I imagine he'll gaslit me and deny it when I broach the topic. It's a nightmare to think of co parenting and sharing my time with my child. Can I ask him to move out? Should I call a divorce lawyer before even bringing it up? There is no chance of reconciliation as far as im concerned.

And to preempt what I know at least one person will say, yes I know and am aware I need to now get a full panel std test. Believe me, I know.

Have you gotten tested for TV (Trich) when you’ve had “yeast infections” previously? Maybe your “yeast infections” have always been TV and your husband had nothing to do with it. Even if he’s infected he might well have zero symptoms.

A sexually transmitted infection caused by a parasite.
Trichomoniasis is among the most common sexually transmitted infections. Risk factors include multiple sexual partners and not using condoms during sex.

And dirty towels

My doctor indicated that it’s not uncommon for married women to catch their husbands cheating that way. Something about a change that your body can detect.

I’m sorry OP. Start compiling your financial information and talk to a lawyer (talk to several, he won’t be able to use the ones you talk to) before you let on that you know. Hopefully the std can be cleared with antibiotics.

Same, I got my first ever UTI and then first BV 6 months later. I'm embarrassed to say it never clicked (I thought something changed after having kids) but a year later I found out he was cheating during that time. It is so disgusting and violating. I'm really sorry OP.

BV is not an STD

Also a UTI is not an STD

No, but both can happen when someone introduces a new partner’s germs. Gross.
