Hi, I’m kinda new to this subreddit but I wanted to share what’s going on in my life. The title is a little misleading because I haven’t come out to anyone yet but I need help to do it today.

I’m an introverted 19 year old male . I guess I identify as gay but I think it’s more bi. My story begins in June when I decide I want to experiment with same sex relations. I download a gay dating app and begin to make a profile and get matches. I meet this guy John (fake name) who says he’s into me and wants to invite me to a group he is hosting. John said it would be perfect for me because new guys like me would be their. I said I would think about it because I was taking summer courses at the time. Fast forward to a few weeks ago, I get the urge to step out of my comfort zone and just experiment to see if I like it and if I don’t that’s fine. I text John and ask when the next group is and he says it the upcoming Friday. I lie to my parents and say I’m going to go to the movies with a friend from class instead of telling them where I was really going. I drive to Johns house 30 mins early and meet him for the first time. He was nice and funny and explained what was going to happen. I’m not going to explain what happened but I did use condoms but some guys didn’t. After two hours I left and went home. Fast forward to five days ago. It was really cold in my house because we don’t turn on the heat. I began to get a sore throat then started to get a dry cough, then began to feel weak and have some joint pain. I realize what this means and that I might have contracted HIV and that it turned to AIDs. I only say might because I haven’t gotten tested yet but I know that there’s a 90% chance I do have it while I’m typing this. The scariest part is that when I do tell my parents I’m going to have to stop going to college in order to afford the medicine. I’m broke because of the summer and fall semester. I don’t have a job and I’m screwed.

I know what I have to do and that is to tell my parents like now, because I’m dying from a lack of immune system. Can anyone who reads this help a introvert explain this horrible situation.

Also I’m typing this on mobile

TLDR; I have to tell my parents that I’m Bi and that I also might have AIDs.
