I don't like the pill. If I slip up and take one a couple hours later than I'm supposed to, I freak out that I'm gonna get pregnant--because it would be totally unfair to tell him he's gotta use the condoms that he hates just because I can't understand the instructions on the pill package. I am so fucking scared that I am gonna screw this up completely and be the only pregnant AP student.

My advice as an AP student on the pill: chill.

If you've been taking it consistently for at least a week you won't get pregnant and a few hours wont screw with that. As long as you take it once a day you're fine. The hormone levels may fluctuate but I can almost promise you you won't get pregnant. If you miss more than two days don't have sex without a condom but other than that don't worry.

You know what's even more effective than the pill or condoms? Using both.

He "hates" them? He probably doesn't hate them as much as the thought of becoming a teenage dad.

Sorry, I don't know anything about your relationship, but I hope his lack of effort (refusing to use condoms, putting the responsibility on you alone) is not present in respect to all facets of your romance.

Yes, anonymous one can almost promise. Put your mind to rest. Ha.

I'm with GP - if you are a little off schedule he should be HAPPY to use a condom to ensure your safety, not angry with you for being so "stupid".

way to succumb to the male dominated world. why dont you just blindly resolve to be a housewife, and better yet, start accepting that god said that women should follow in men's footsteps. btw i guarantee you there are other ap students like you.

I would say give condoms a go. If he's worth anything at all he'll give them a try.

If it turns out he really hates them, then you have to decide what's really important.
