I was tested positive for syphilis. my partner is negative. is this possible? dating him for 4months now

Need more info: Were you treated for syphilis? Depending on the test, it may not mean active infection. Some of the tests remain positive despite successful treatment of syphilis. If you have any doubt, both of you should see a doctor. Wish you good health!
