Something strange appeared on his package. I do not like where this is going.

Key Points:

• A reader noticed possible genital warts on their friend-with-benefits and is unsure whether to confront them further or insist on a doctor visit; the advice is to continue the conversation, advocate for oneself by pausing sex until testing is done, and consider HPV vaccination.
• Another reader experiences an unusually high libido impacting daily life and finances; the advice suggests checking for hormonal changes with a doctor, continuing mindfulness practices, and possibly seeking therapy or medical treatment like SSRIs under professional guidance.
• A reader struggles with confidence in initiating sex with their girlfriend who wants more initiation; advice includes mirroring the partner’s language, trying direct verbal or non-verbal cues, discussing boundaries, and recognizing that some people have more responsive rather than spontaneous libidos.
• The column emphasizes open communication, self-advocacy, and professional consultation in sexual health and relationship concerns, encouraging readers to seek medical advice and therapy as needed.
