A member asked:
My question is if a guy licks my neck and stuff and holds hand so i need to be re tested for sexual transmitted diseases again or no?

They are called sexually transmitted diseases for a reason; they involve sexual activity. I know of no STD that would transfer to you in that way.

All details matter, however there should not be any risk for STD transmission when holding hands or being kissed on the neck. Check cdc.gov for reliable information regarding STD transmission.
