So, I am currently plating this girl right now and I found out I have a jock itch. I’ve read about it and it can be transmitted during sex. I took the responsibility and told her about it, cancelled and told her we can meet another time.

In a way, I feel I did wrong because I ‘validated’ her too much by explaining my absence. What should I have done in the future? Should I have just cancelled without explanation or told her “I’m sick”?

I didn’t really know what best course of action to take because it was the first time I had this fungal infection and I thought it was an STI at first.
