How did I get chlamydia in faithful relationship?

I've been with my boyfriend just under 5 years so far. In the very beginning he gave me gonorrhea. Now 5 years later he gives me chlamydia!! I have only been with him this entire relationship!!! When he fu*ked me the other day, I new instantly something wasn't right. It hurt, it stung, it burned. He swears he didn't cheat but wtf, is there any other possible scenario? I want to believe him but it's hard. It hurts me a lot. Deeply. Been crying for days (since I found out). I don't know what to think, and I don't want to think what I think already. It's tearing my heart apart.

Hi this is new to me I've never had Chlamydia an I'm 31 years old an yesterday i found out I've got Chlamydia an I've been with my bf for a year an half I told him an all I got out off him that ive cheated on him but I'm not a cheater ive been cheated out in my past an I know how much it hurts I wouldn't dream of doing it to my bf or anyone i just feel discussed that ive got it i knew i got it from my bf i don't get how people lie an cheat"

Chlamydia can lie dormant in the body for many years causing a low grade infection without symptoms. It could potentially flare up to cause a symptomatic infection, especially if there is an alteration in the persons immune system, such as a severe cold or flu, cancer or some other severe illness or severe stress.

It could be possible you got it from an old bf who had cheated on you and it's layed dormant up till now, you will both need to be treated for it no matter what your bf says.

My gf gave me chlamydia. We have been together about a year and I haven't been with anyone else since I had sex with her. At first she denied cheating but when I showed her the paperwork from the Doctor's office she came clean. She was really embarrassed and apologetic. I still love her and we are going to work it out but I can't lie a big part of the trust is gone for now. It is crazy too, this is the first gf I have had since my high school sweetheart that I haven't cheated on. Unfortunately, she once again proved this time tested old saying: If she cheats WITH you, she will cheat ON you! She was in a relationship when we met and we were talking and hanging out and I got that before she officially broke up with him. This is the second time I have proved the saying to be true. Good luck everyone.

You're an amazing pillar of strength:)I was unfortunately diagnosed with this disease around September or October, after having it for months apparently. Apparently using a condom the whole time is not a way to prevent STI's all the way if you only use it at the end of sex, I always forget about prec*m. (Sorry to be gross, but we are all adults right?) but I also say this bc it almost did ruin my relationship. I knew it was me who probably gave it to him bc we were on a break, and I foolishly didn't use a condom for like ten minutes and he didn't last long so I just knew he had probably have mea surprise I wouldn't enjoy a few months from now. Instead of it being a baby ( Took a pregnancy test a couple weeks later but forgot how I should have taken a sti test as well since I had an appt coming up) I kept postponing my appt (out of sheer luck of me missing my appt and me also not wanting to take the time and go.) so I found out me and my partner basically were passing it around to each other for Atleast 5 months but I was confuse bc they say it is dormant and will go away left untreated as long as we aren't infected with hiv. (We aren't) well then again I can say that only about myself bc he won't get tested until I take him bc he doesn't truly believe he has it. I've been treated for 3 weeks now and I want to have sex but i know it's bad bc he isn’t treated yet (don’t even know if he has it ) anyways long story short- LADIES, please get tested before you “dance the dance” with (a) new “partner(s)” seriously save your own life and heart (and lady parts) and future baby making parts if your tubes aren’t tied!

What do you think is gonna happen? You’re gonna get reinfected unless you or your “partner” were clean

So, when is the wedding? XD

Totally jk. I’m so sorry this happened to you! Betrayal is never an easy thing to get over, whether it be cheating, lying, making the same “mistakes or accidents” over and over again. But the be gaslighted on top of it all, is like having salt rubbed into a wound that was created by a cheese grater and putting lemon in it just for the hell of it ( ie- making an already painful situation [they cause] more [painfully] stricken

Maybe stay away from the girls who are giving it away so easy?

So what happened?

I am in the same situation. I don't think she cheated but, all the blame is on me and this relationship of 15 years and 9 years of marriage is struggling. I have read about 5 different studies about this bacteria and I am convinced she got it another way. However, I am still to blame, even after I got tested 1 week after she exposed it to me with sex and another week after that, before taking any medication. Both tests negative.
