I don’t even know how to start. Tapi I kena luah benda ni. Flashback to a dark time. Masa tu I baru je breakup. It was bad. She left me, and honestly, I pun bukan boyfriend yang baik. Tapi I sayang dia gila.
Bila dia blah, I macam hilang arah. Never thought it would hit me that hard. I ingat I boleh handle, I ingat I tough. Tapi sebenarnya, I literally lost myself. Rasa kosong. I had a mental breakdown. That was the lowest point of my life.
Then, I did something really dumb. I reinstalled T*nder, reached out to people I used to be close with. Ajak lepak, minum, and yeah… hookup.
Pernah sekali, I slept with a stranger I kenal tak sampai dua jam. At first, I ingat boleh distract, boleh numb the pain. Tapi obviously, it didn’t work.
That night, lepas everything was done, I baring sebelah my FWB, pandang siling. Couldn’t sleep. Dalam hati, I tanya, “What the hell am I doing?”
Tapi somehow, I got addicted. I still buat lagi. And again. And again. Sex gave me an illusion of connection, walaupun I tahu it’s fake. It’s empty.
I still ingat that one night, I tengah chill, then muncul dua awek. Cantik, playful, total strangers. Supposed to be just another night to forget. We drank, danced, and I tak tahu pun nama diorang. Cuma ingat one of them ada butterfly tattoo dekat collarbone.
Diorang ajak “have fun” after party, and I was like, “Why not?” It had been months since I last had s*x. I tahu it was stupid, tapi masa tu I cuma fikir, “Whatever, lantak lah” I terdesak nak rasa alive.
We ended up in a room bertiga. No condom. Raw, messy, stupid. Honestly, I didn’t plan for anything that night.
A few weeks later, I started rasa tak sihat. Demam, sakit tekak, badan kejang. I ingat maybe hangover or tak cukup tidur. Tapi bila sakit tu makin worse, and bila I kencing, rasa pedih gila.
I started to panic. What if I got STD? HIV? I rasa macam Tuhan bayar dosa I cash. I cried and begged, “Ya Allah, kalau aku selamat… aku janji aku akan berubah”
I pergi klinik sorang-sorang. Buat full check-up. Blood test, swab, HIV screening. Had to sit there, explain everything I did to the doctor. The whole time, I rasa macam manusia paling hina.
Nurse tanya, “You okay ke?” I just fake a smile. Dalam hati, Tuhan je tahu. That one week waiting for results?
Bro, worst week of my life. I terperap dalam bilik, tak reply satu pun text. Just stared at the wall, wondering… kalau ini endgame I, dan I terpaksa pikul semua tu sorang-sorang? I was 21/22 at that time.
But guess what? Result keluar. Negative. Semua clear. Doctor cakap I just dehydrated, badan penat, and ada minor infection sebab low immunity. Maybe sebab I tak jaga makan and tidur. I was safe.
Tapi masa tu, I rasa macam Allah bagi I second chance. I keluar klinik, patutnya lega, right? Tapi I nangis. Dalam kereta, tepi parking lot. I cried like crazy. Bukan sebab I selamat, tapi sebab I realised how far I’d fallen.
I almost destroyed my life just because I tak boleh handle heartbreak. I thought casual s*x boleh fill the void in my heart. Since that day, I stopped everything. I janji dengan diri sendiri, “Enough”
Now, I cuba slow things down. Somewhere along the way, I jumpa someone new. Slowly, no pressure. We talk, share stories, laugh. Dia tak judge I. For once, I feel safe. I stick with one partner now. And most importantly, I belajar to love myself again.
I tahu ramai orang akan kecam. Cakap “padan muka” or maybe rasa I deserve it. Tapi I tulis ni bukan untuk simpati. I tulis sebab I tahu, kat luar sana ada orang macam I. Yang tengah lost.
If you’re reading this and you pernah buat benda sama, I nak you tahu. You’re not alone. Tapi please, don’t repeat it. Don’t risk your health, your soul, your worth for temporary comfort. I bersyukur I selamat, tapi not everyone gets that lucky.

You should ‘bersyukur’ yg Allah dah bgi u “second chance”, n selamat dari penyakit yg ditakuti.. Kalau betul u dah bertaubat, pliz jgn buat lagi dosa yg telah lalu tu.. istiqomah dgn taubat tu, n focus way ahead.. in fact, just keep this to yourself n jgn acah2 ‘suci’ nk cerita dgn org lain.., bkn semua org boleh terima seorang yg pernah jd ‘pendosa’ w/pon sudah bertaubat.. wallahu a’lam.
aku harap semua lelaki macam kau ni tak kira la gay ke straight ke, berubah ke arah jalan yang diredhai Allah dan tetap istiqamah dan dapat bakal isteri yang baik dan korang dapat jadi bakal suami, bakal ayah yang baik. kau patut bersyukur sangat dapat peluang kedua dari Allah.
Laki baik untuk pompuan baik. Ko patut dapat pompuan yang pernah ada sejarah ditebuk. Baru sekufu. Jangan risau, ramai je yang dah ditebuk tapi honest dan baik hati..
semoga jalan taubat adam di permudahkan. apa pun jadi, jangan tinggalkan solat. nak perbaiki hidup, kena mula dengan perbaiki solat. dan mula bergaul dengan sahabat-sahabat yang baik. inshaAllah.
Lepas 6 bulan or 1 tahun make sure recheck. Awal² pnyakit biasa blum triggered. After a few months then will surface. Who knows. Better safe than sorry.
