I was feeling really depressed, and I was at a crossroads. I had recently been diagnosed with a sexually transmitted infection (STI) called Bacterial Vaginosis (BV).
I was devastated, and couldn’t believe this had happened to me. I had been in a monogamous relationship for six months, and I had trusted my partner implicitly. As I tried to process my diagnosis, I started to suspect that my partner may have been unfaithful. I started to ask myself,
“Where did he go and who did he see?”
The first thing I did was confront my partner. He denied all allegations of cheating, but I wasn’t convinced. I decided to do some digging to find out the truth. I started by looking into his social media activity, and noticed that he had been messaging his friends about going to Geylang.
I could not believe what I was seeing. He had been going to Geylang to find women, and he had been doing it every weekend. I was so angry and hurt that I confronted him again. This time, he admitted that he had been seeing other women, and that he had not been faithful.
I was devastated by my partner’s betrayal, and it took me a long time to process. I eventually decided to move on, but I was determined to find out why he had gone to Geylang in the first place. After some investigations, I discovered that he went Geylang looking for prostitutes. It is also a hot spot for STIs, as many of the women in the area have multiple S partners.
I was shocked to learn that my partner had been engaging in such risky behavior, and I felt betrayed. I had trusted him and thought that our relationship was exclusive, but he had been going to Geylang and indulging in unprotected S with strangers.
It was then that I realized that he was the one who had infected me with BV.
I was angry and hurt, but I also felt a sense of closure. I had finally gotten to the bottom of what had happened, and it helped me put the pieces together. I now knew that my partner had been unfaithful, and had exposed me to an STI.
