I think I just lost my appetite… and the will to live.
Public Service Announcement from Greg
-
-
I'm sorry, I couldn't help myself. XD
-
XD They told us that in 7th grade actually. I was in a girl school, and they taught us how to unroll and put the condoms on bananas. To use the teacher's direct quote, "just in case your future boyfriend lies back and says, 'Put it on me, baby.'"
And from that point on, we were scarred for life.
Did you eat the bananas afterwards?
-
So, you're saying you like the taste of spermicidal lubricant on your bananas, Polygon? :wassat:
-
I've done many things to get where I am today.
-
Did you eat the bananas afterwards?
No, we didn't. But we did snap the condoms around at each other like rubber bands though. XD
We weren't allowed to keep the spare condoms either. Which, I think, was a pooper and kinda defeated the purpose of the lesson.
And Buuhan, you're a freak-child, you know that? O_o
-
Wow, a class of girls putting condoms on bananas.
That sentence is probably enough to kill a pedophile.
-
-
It's things like these that make me happy I have no interest or desire in pre-marital sex.
And congradulations on the proposal, Greg.
-
-
I've gotten over my slump over my ex and I'm going tomorrow morning, I should have probably gone earlier, but whatever. Wish me luck

We didn't do that our public school, we would put it on our arm and see how far it goes to check how durable it would be. Most of them ripped.
-
Yeah, I tend to be very careful about who I have sex with. If I've been with the person a while (I usually try to be), I go with them and have us both tested. It's the safest thing you can do.
There was only one time I didn't have the girl checked, and I'm still slapping myself for that… luckily, nothing came of it, but it very well could have.
Remember: Before you attack her, wrap your whacker.

Good luck dude. Hope the answer gives you some peace of mind.

@Fire Fist:

That is CLASSIC!!! Bravo, good sir!
-
Oh wow, that is great news that you're alright Greg! I got worried when I started reading this thread, and when I saw that your results were negative, that really made me sigh in relief.
Also, congrats in advance to you and Haruka! Wish you the best of luck when you do pop the question, she is truly blessed to have a man like you that cares about her so much.
Well, sadly, all the times I've had sex I never had my ex use a condom… He has been with a few girls before me, but the last time I ever had sex with him was like over a year ago... I never thought about getting tested or anything, but after this much time, is there any point?
Seriously, thank you for sharing this with us.

YES
HIV can hang out in your system for up to 8 years (possibly as much as 10) years without any symptoms. All the while you could be infecting others.
And of course, the most heartbreaking of all, finding out you have HIV when having a blood test to check the healthiness of your baby after becoming pregnant.
-
Oh damn…. ok, I'll make it a point to do get myself checked asap.
I seriously had no idea that HIV could hang in your system for that long! -

Speaking of faulty condoms, there's been a period in Australia few years back when they discovered that one of the leading condom manufacturers buggered up big time. The condoms they were producing were full of microscopic holes. So my friends and I decided to test them out by turning them into balloons XD (this was when we were watching American Pie marathon…)
Sure enough, they deflated at an alarming rate. Never again have we trusted the manufacturer = =;
-
Until the night where I was a fucking stupid piece of shit, it's exactly what I thought. I was famous for having such 'old-fashioned' views.
If you can, just keep it that way no matter what.
i'm a virigin…and intend to keep that way...but greg..that sux. I hope you'll find somoene that will love you for who you are no matter what. Though in this era and age that's hard to find. I never had a girlfriend...well mostly because i'm picky and i have rotten luck. (meaning they live to far away or they just didn't like me, or they aren't ready for a relationship yet (long story about that one)) . Though someday i'm preety sure i'll get one, ^_^. Well luckily i haven't done any thing like that. But it's good thing people like you are speaking out maybe it would get the point across or it would convince others to you know do something about it. I'm still going to ask my future gf to be tested just because i want to make sure i ain't doing something stupid (don't worry i'll get tested too).

-
positive=infected
negative=not infectedI read Greg's post at like 6am, so for a while there it worried me till it was confirmed what he meant.
-

-
oh good he's not infected horray for greg
^_~
I hope you'll find somoene that will love you for who you are no matter what.
Well somewhere back on page 1, I mentioned I'll be proposing to my girlfriend so hopefully I've found that someone ^_^
Refii, are you doin' okay?
-
yah i found it… so congrats!!! Do something romatic (just a suggestion though) like propose on the beach.
-
I'm planning to propose in the middle of the Shibuya Scramble Intersection スクランブル交差点 'Sukuramburu Kousaten'. It's the intersection more people cross in a day than anywhere else in the world and ALWAYS featured in modern movies about Japan (with the exception of Black Rain).
!
-
Ah, to be able to go to Tokyo.
Congratulations Greg, and best wishes.
-
Awesome. Wishing for the best for you Greg.
-
They got that big monitor, there, right? You gonna pay to get something put on that screen? :P
goodness. anyone who tries driving there, is an idiot. That's definatly worse than downtown toronto. lol
-

Was gonna have three of her friends hold a massive sign up at the Starbucks side and start walking towards us but I considered that. In fact I still wanna look into it.
-
I'm gonna risk sounding like a party-pooper, Greg, but here's the thing. I know absolutely nothing about you girlfriend, so I'm working on the common female perception here.
Public proposal is something you have to approach with caution. To cut a long story short, it really does put us on the spot, and could lead to embarrassment on both sides. Think of how many answers she's able to give you when the whole square's listening, and compare that to the real number of her possible answers. No matter how confident you are (and I'm sure you guys are truly solid from the sound of it all), it may not be a good idea to put her on the spot. It may seem romatic, but it could turn out to be disastrous. (gee…D: I hope I'm not jinxing it)
But of course, I don't know anything about you guys ><
Go ahead with what you think is appropirate, but please consider the possibility too. -

The entire waiting game hasn't been based on her insomuch as it has me being insecure because, among other things, the topic of this thread.
She loves to stand out and have attention and I've pulled in 4 of her best friends on the deal and consulted them and they all love it.
I guess what I'm trying to say it, it's not going to be a question that comes out of left field, up until now it's just been a matter of when ^_~
-
Oh that's good to hear ^^
Righty-o! A revised suggestion would be to hire a marching band. They can play "Can't Take My Eyes Off You", or some other cheesy songs. And hire someone to tape it, too – it should make a great special feature on your wedding DVD. XD
-
And hire someone to tape it, too
Already assigned that task to her best friend ^_^m She's also helping pick out the ring.
Aren't I like every girl's gay friend except for that I'm a raging Heterosexual?
-
And get married in Disneyland!
-
Greg, I just have one thing to say.
Don't get trampled by people when you kneel down.
-
Uh.. derailed a bit, but good luck anyway Greg!
Test was negative, I kind of felt stupid afterwards, the doctor/hiv counselor was saying stuff like "oh then you have nothing to worry about" and "no problem, simple test for you" like I shouldn't even be there because they have to worry about serious idiots that have unprotected orgies and share needles and shit =/
But whatever, guess it's good to have it off my mind.
-
And get married in Disneyland!
XD
hey, greg, have you ever seen/read Love Hina. :P That special was so kawaii. It brought warm fuzzies to my heart. heh heh. <3
-
Greg, good luck!!! ^^
btw, … just an additional warning... AIDS has a 'window' period. meaning if you acquire the disease then took the test the day after, the result will still be negative. only after 3 to 4 months will the result be positive...
-
Refii congrats! All it takes is one time so don't think you didn't belong there. Lots of the people carrying HIV all completely normal people.
hey, greg, have you ever seen/read Love Hina.
I saw most of the series, what happened in the special?
-
love hina christmas special spoiler for greg
! it's been a while, but keitaro, and naru get mad at eachother before christmas eve and the whole gang is wandering around tokyo. the 2 both realize, while on their own, that they are being silly as usual, and are in a race to find eachother before midnight. (something about a christmas eve tradition and proposing your love, i think) anyways, by the end, Keitaro is unsuccessful in finding Naru at the last moment, due to his bad luck, so Naru, who is at Shibuya, gets on the stage where they are filming for that big TV screen, and starts saying she is sorry to keitaro, and what a great guy he is. When Keitaro sees Naru on the TV, he knows to head right towards the stage, and they all have a merry christmas. :Pya, so that's the jist of it from what I remember. It just makes me go aauuuwww. I hope when you propose, it is a supper fuzzy, aaauuuww moment like that too. :P
-
Here's one good reason to put a condom and stay alive - ONE PIECE.
I DON'T WANT TO DIE BEFORE KNOWING THE END! -
Ohh I've walked the Scramble Intersection. It looks a lot bigger than it really is but still cool.
Good luck!!
