Flu shots? - Page 9

Aliantha · 10-21-2008, 08:09 PM

So you weren't just being a smarty pants then?

And you couldn't tell me too much I don't know about it. Remember, you're not the only one. I got it the first time I ever had sex, and do you know what the arsehole said to me? Now you can't ever leave me. I believed him at first...but then I grew up.

Griff · 10-21-2008, 08:11 PM

Wow, that was cold.

Aliantha · 10-21-2008, 08:12 PM

Sometimes I think it's a wonder I that I had enough faith left in love and men to ever find the wonderful man I have now. I've been very lucky in my life.

footfootfoot · 10-21-2008, 08:16 PM

whoa, I missed that post Ali. Funny thing, while my GF didn't say that in so many words, there was definitely the expectation afterward. There is a part of me that feels it was intentional. As far as I know the buck stopped here.

Aliantha · 10-21-2008, 08:19 PM

I'm almost certain it was intentional. I don't think he cared that much even that he'd given me something I'd have to live with forever.

How many women have you dated that dumped you once they found out you had it? Only happened a couple of times to me. Most blokes were ok about it, but the couple of times it did happen it was gutting. And it brought back all the anger I was too naive to feel at the time.

footfootfoot · 10-21-2008, 08:26 PM

none of them dumped me since I was upfront, but also I don't think it was ever an issue w/ any of them.

Aliantha · 10-21-2008, 08:29 PM

I was always upfront, but sometimes I think it's the difference between men and women. I think often it was the stage when I found out who just wanted a fuck and who actually cared about me as a person.

I guess the ones that just wanted a fuck missed out, even if that's all it was ever going to be.

footfootfoot · 10-21-2008, 08:34 PM

good point, but there are days when I wish I had said to her "let's just be friends"

Aliantha · 10-21-2008, 08:35 PM

I wish I'd listened to my parents when they told me he was no good.

I've never had herpes, but I've been tested for a couple of STDs at least 3 times. So I've been in risky situations and it's luck that I don't have it.

A friend of a friend caught Hepatitis C from her first partner. He was a drug user and although she claims she didn't inject it is apparently unusual to catch through sexual contact. So although I was luckier than you, she was unluckier than any of us I guess.

TheMercenary · 10-23-2008, 02:35 PM

Well same for chicken pox if you want to look deep into it. People who are exposed to it as adults, from children, can get very ill, esp if you are a prego female. I know it is a personal choice. And I know that there has been a long held belief that it is tied to autism. But I also know that the types, causes, and severity of autism in children are far and wide as well as poorly understood, esp the familial connections.

All the years my father was immunocompromised, I was very grateful to have access to the flu vaccine. The more people around him that were vaccinated, the less chance he would die of it.
Sometimes, it's not all about you.

Griff · 10-23-2008, 08:34 PM

Nice parting shot. I'm a bad person for questioning.

Pie · 10-23-2008, 08:47 PM

It wasn't directed at you.

I wonder if this is gonna work in New Jersey?

I found it from the vaccinationnation.net site. I wonder if it is connected to shaken baby stuff? Oooh all questions and no answers, I hate that.
