Today, during an unrelated appointment with my GP, he offered me a free check for chlamydia. Despite me reassuring him that I was STI free, he insisted that I should undergo the test. I ended up agreeing, only because I was too embarrassed to admit that I'm still a virgin. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I went to the free clinic down the street to prove to my girlfriend I don't have any STDs so that we can finally have sex. Turns out I have one. FML
Today, when my doctor told me I had symptoms of an STD, I had to repeatedly try to convince her I'm a 28-year-old virgin. Even as I left she still didn't believe me. FML
Today, I confessed my feelings to the guy I've been seeing. He confessed that he gave me chlamydia. FML
Today, I found out that my boyfriend cheated on me by testing myself for STIs/STDs and got a positive result for chlamydia. FML
Today, I went to the doctor's thinking I had a UTI. Turns out I have an STD. FML
Today, at my physical, I found out that my ex-boyfriend who broke up with me 4 months ago was not only cheating on me, but had also manage to catch chlamydia and give it to me. I'm now dating someone else, so I had to explain that I've had chlamydia for 4 months without knowing, and he should probably get tested. FML
Today, I went to see a doctor because of some blood in my stool. Not only is the matter embarrassing enough as is, it turned out the doctor was a young, crisply dressed, extremely handsome man. I then had his finger in my ass for a check-up, all the while him being very nice about it. I'm still mortified. FML
Today, I got a text from a guy I hooked up with once before my current boyfriend. The guy told me he has chlamydia, and I should probably get tested. I had to call my boyfriend to explain what happened and tell him to get tested. I'm meeting his family this weekend at his sister's wedding. FML
Today, as a gynecologist, I’ve spent years telling people to be safe during sex. I should have known better, but I let my vagina do the thinking for me in a moment of weakness, had a meaningless anonymous one night stand, and I'm now pregnant and positive for chlamydia. FML
Today, I went to the doctor for my yearly checkup. After getting my blood-pressure taken, my finger pricked, etc, the doctor began to ask me some questions. When asked if I was sexually active, I responded "Yes". The doctor started laughing. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

nothing to be embarrassed about.

Your future partner will most likely appreciate you being a virgin and STI free.

Isn't being a virgin a good thing

It's not good or bad. It's just a thing.

I wish I was still a virgin

Next time, OP, just tell the doctor you're not currently sexually active and decline the test. Honesty is generally best when talking to your doctor. They don't judge you for it—it's just their job to make sure you're healthy.

why be embarrassed about that? be proud that you're waiting until you find someone you really love.

Similar thing happened to me the first time I got asked, I ended up telling the lady I'd get it done another time. But honestly you get used to patiently explaining intimate details of your love life to medical professionals, they only press you because they want to make sure you're well informed and being healthy. It can seem like they're treating you like a child who can't look after your own sexual health but I'm sure their double checking has helped some people who have been too reluctant to ask for the tests. They get all sorts walking through their doors, you'll be one virgin amoung many so hold your head up and let them know, you shouldn't feel pressured into unnecessary tests.

There isn't anything wrong with being a virgin still. I'm a 21 year old college student and I am one too.

I feel your pain. I recently had to get a new doctor as the one I had from birth retired. I had to explain why a responsible woman of my age had yet to get a pap done. Just steady yourself and tell him.

The risk of cervical cancer is very low if you haven't had sex, but it's generally worth having smears done anyway just in case
