Omg, of course. I personally get tested every 6 months and before anything happened between us, I made sure we both got cleared! He said he protected himself as much as he could that time in Mexico (I know that sounds contradictory!)

Not to sound patronizing, but I think it's great that you both got tested. I'm not out in the dating world, and haven't been for a long time, but I sure hope it's easier to get done these days. I know not everyone will agree, but I think that people should get tested before each new partner. Sure it's not romantic, but neither is finding out you have creepy crawlies or worse!
