I agree with Maven. When it comes to dating, it's not just about not getting pregnant, you have to protect yourself from STDs too. The pill isn't going to do that. I have been in relationships with some very wonderful guys who I trusted and loved. But, I always reminded myself that I really don't know where those guys have been. I'm sure of them were truthful about their history and others might not have been -- and those guys don't know for sure what the history is of the women they've been with. So, you just never know and it's better safe than sorry. So, no glove, no love -- just like Maven said. In addition to protecting you from some pretty scary STDs, using a condom will also give you extra protection from getting pregnant.
