– How could I start to ask if she uses the pill?
– Should I bring a condom with me? When should I start asking and mention the word condom?
– I think I had sex without protection, will I be pregnant or have a sexually transmitted disease now?
– Where can I go with my doubts, my fear and my questions? Will they believe me?
– Are you mentally and socially prepared and fit to become ‘father & mother’?
– Should I accept this drink or present from him?
