STDFriends.com might have a somewhat outdated name, since STIs is the current term, but it has done a recent update to its Web design and interface. You'll find great features, such as group chat rooms, personal blogs, members' forums and more. Access is limited until you upgrade, but many options allow a certain number of actions to be done during a 24-hour period each day. The site currently has a limited number of visitors to its pages, but it is reasonably priced and does allow you to pursue friendship and romance in a spirit of openness, understanding and caring.
