Hi oloni! I’m desperate to lose my virginity but I don’t know how to do so without being in a relationship (which I don’t want to be). I just want to explore my sexuality, have a healthy sex life and gain experience. How do you suggest I go about doing so? 13. April 2017

Hey hun! Just be patient, when the time is right you’ll lose your virginity. Make sure you’re educated on safe sex in terms of contraception. Now we’re done with the boring stuff, focus on meeting new guys to develop a relationship. I don’t mean boyfriend/girlfriend btw, but instead someone who makes you comfortable sexually. There are several ways you can meet guys also, so through a friend of a friend, dating apps, social media etc.

Do keep me updated and let me know how everything works out.

Hi Oloni, this one’s a bit complicated. A couple months ago, I caught my friend’s man (unawares) messaging another woman. Sending each other nudes, dirty messages all of that. The thing is, this woman is in another country. I have not told my friend like I know I should because this woman is abroad and I can’t prove any messages her man can delete. Plus I am scared to break down their long term relationship. she is truly quite fragile. No exaggeration when I say she would break down, honestly. I also don’t know how to confront her man because I rarely see him without my friend being there. However, I recently managed to swipe the other woman’s number off his phone (asked to ‘borrow’ his phone on a night out, saw he deleted their msgs but remembered her name when I went through contacts) and I’m considering taking matters into my own hands by telling this woman to back off. She’s not in the country so this is about all I can do… is this the right thing to do? what do I even say? I’m quite conflicted 13. April 2017

Oohh girl pump your breaks! I get it, you’re just trying to be a good friend, but you’re doing a bit too much by wanting to message the girl abroad.

I think the only thing you can/should do is tell your mate what you saw. I understand that she’d feel quite torn about it, what woman wouldn’t be? But sadly, that’s all you can do, as well as be a supportive friend.

I’m struggling with genital herpes, how do I go about dating? 13. April 2017

LAID BARE – LIVE ON RADAR – THIS SUNDAY 8PM-10PM – #LaidBareLiveOnRadar – radarradio.com 

Heya hun, thanks for writing in there are plenty of people living with incurable STI’s so please don’t feel like you’re alone. In fact, we’ve had several people write in about the same dilemma in regards to dating. I was able to find one of the replies, where we shared a detailed response followed by guidance regarding herpes..

‘I know people with herpes in happy relationships and or thriving in life, so do not think having herpes means your life is over or ruined. For as long as you are alive you can do all the things you planned to do. It may not feel good now but it’s possible, so what you need is hope. So I’ve done a bit of research for you:

  1. Genital herpes is a common condition, especially in people from 20 to 24 years old.
  2. According to the National Institutes of Health, many people with genital herpes never even have outbreaks or their outbreaks decrease over time (one or two outbreaks a year is not uncommon). The virus can lie dormant in your system for years without coming to the surface.
  3. HSV has no effect on fertility and is not transmitted via men’s sperm or women’s ova (eggs).
  4. Women with genital herpes can experience a safe pregnancy and vaginal childbirth. This is especially so when a women has a diagnosis of genital herpes prior to becoming pregnant. In the situation when the mother already has a history of genital herpes, she will have antibodies circulating in her blood which will protect the baby during the pregnancy and delivery.

Given this you genuinely don’t need to freak out. You can live a happy life with herpes, so many people do. I would say it may be of help to sign up to an online community of people who are living with herpes in order for you to hear about their experiences and understand that you are not alone.’ – Ebi

I also think that you shouldn’t think of it as something to struggle with, you can live a pretty normal life. Go about dating like the average person would, join Bumble or Happn. Make eye contact with that guy who always catches the same 8.30am train as you, flirt on social media, go to social events. Just make sure when the times comes before sex, you explain your sexual health status.

You’ll find that some people may be ignorant and not have a clear understanding, so that’s where you ask if they know what it is and calmly explain it. Herpes doesn’t suddenly mean that you sex/dating life is over.

My bf is against having a 3som but your article on bi-sexuality is too true for me …. What should I do ? 13. April 2017

Decide what you value more at this stage, the threesome or your relationship.

Hi Oloni, i’ve been with my boyfriend for just under six months now. Whilst we were watching movies he had to make a note of something in his calender and i saw his ex’s birthday written in it. They’ve been broken up for a year now but she still talked to him 2 months into our relationship until i told him it made me uncomfortable and only then did he lock of the ting. i just wanna know is that something i should be worried about? 13. April 2017

You should have said something when you saw it. If I’m honest I wouldn’t make a big deal out of it, he’s probably just forgotten to remove it.

Enjoy your relationship, as long as he’s not communicating with her, it’s no biggie. Believe in your sauce girl.

Oloni
