Let's have a real talk about intimacy. Before diving into the sheets with someone new, it's essential to prioritize your health and safety. Here are three things every Pretty Please girly should do before getting intimate with a new bae.
1. Get Tested: Prioritise your sexual health by getting tested regularly for STIs. It's a proactive step that not only protects you but also shows your partner that you value their health too. Remember, it's not just about protecting yourself – it's about protecting each other. You should also ask them to get tested too, offer to go with them to make them feel more comfortable with it.
2. Communication is Key: Before getting intimate, have an open and honest conversation with your partner about sexual health, boundaries, and expectations. Consent is crucial, and it's essential to ensure that both parties are on the same page.
3. Birth Control and Protection: If you're not ready for a bun in the oven, make sure you're using effective birth control methods. Additionally, always have protection on hand to prevent STIs and unwanted pregnancies. Safety first!
So, before you take that leap of intimacy, remember to prioritize your health and well-being. By taking these proactive steps, you're not only looking out for yourself but also setting a standard of care and respect in your relationships.
Stay safe and sexy,
Pretty Please xo
