Since dating someone who was absolutely riddled, I’ve become a sexual health hypochondriac. Until 2016, I had mainly only slept with a handful of people, who I was in relationships with, and they had each slept with as few people as me. Plus, I was a goody-two-shoes about contraception.

The morning after our 2nd date, the Bearded South African Man (BSAM) texted me, just a few minutes after leaving my flat. I find this screenshot hilarious – I think it perfectly captures a date that has gone well. Over the next week, we were in touch quite a lot by text. He texted me…
