Joey,

Try to stay calm. You are definitely not the worst person in the world. You are not a bad person. If you love your girlfriend and she loves you to then you should just talk to her. Explain to her what you're feeling and that you're worried about STDs and you think you should both be tested. Then you'll know for sure what is going on and you guys can try and handle things together. I know it feels overwhelming and out of control, but trust me, this is something that a lot of couples have to deal with so you're not alone. Let me know if you need any help talking to your girlfriend or getting tested. We are definitely all here for you.
