"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

I've been a regular condom user and it has likely helped me.
I was an idiot dude. I got caught up in the moment and sacrificed the embarrassment of not being able to get hard with a condom to enter a girl for 30 seconds without a condom, to then put one on. As my cousin said "if a girl is willing to just let you stick her d!ck in her on the first date like that with NO condom, how many other dudes do you think she also let?"
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Why would they give you antibiotics prior to knowing the results? You may just have a simple irritation or inflammation. This is how we get antibiotic resistance by taking antibiotics prior to knowing the results. If I treated you, we'd be waiting until we can confirm what it is unless you are incredibly uncomfortable. Unwise on the NP's part.
Really? **** man, I hope she wasn't wrong about anything else. Will this make antibiotics for a UTI less effective then if I have to take them in a few days with the results? I know this would be a different strain of antibiotics though.

They'd prob. give you Ciprofloxacin or Levofloxacin IF it's a UTI. For an STD, it's different. I am not sure why she treated you for Gonorrhea if you've not been diagnosed with it yet. I assume she injected you with Ceftriaxone. Doxycycline is for Chlamydia, but can also be used for Gonorrhea; just it's not a shot. There is no cure for HSV or HPV as they are viruses.

If she's a registered nurse, then I am sure her intentions were good. However, how does she treat a patient without results? They didn't test there with the urine? A rapid result is within 20 minutes. Wonder if you saw a nursing student, not actual nurse. That means she's under the guidance of registered nurse, PA or doctor.

Follow the nurses directions, as she's the one who treated you. However, I'd call in the morning to see if they have the results and then question them if they do not have the results, why were you given antibiotics? In the end, you will be fine, but the practice of giving antibiotics prior to results is why we have antibiotic resistance to many common infections and bacteria.

She was an NP and she did a rapid test with the urine and said there were no cultures, just a trace amount of blood. She told me they would send to the lab to check for gono/chlamydia as well as culturing the bacteria in the sample to better analyze for a UTI. She pretty much just asked if I wanted the antibiotics and shot to be on the safe side, if the results were to come back positive I would of already had the antibiotics. But I agree with you - interesting that they were given before a true diagnosis.
