for quite sometime with people he meets over the net. He got the clap once... But he hasn't learned, and he still does it (barebacking). His behavior is a bit erratic, since he uses condoms sometimes, and sometimes he doesn't. He picks up dirty looking girls as well. Should I tell him to have himself tested?

Oh no. I'm not messing with people's heads here. It's just that I feel like I don't want to step on anyone's toes as far as their private lives are concerned.

Yes
I had a girl like that in my care last year. She is now in long term rehab. Drugs and alcohol were involved as well as risky sex with Internet contacts and other nasty boys. She finally became so self destructive she lost all her freedoms for awhile.
Your friend is playing with dynamite, his own body. It is your duty as a friend to speak to him. But he is an adult, you cannot force him to do anything.
Such behaviour is not normal, it is driven. He knows what he is doing. He is choosing to play Russian roulette with his life. He is choosing low women with no self esteem, that in itself says a lot about his opinion of himself.
He sounds like a sex addict and needs psychological help. If you care about him, and it seems you do, just have a hard conversation with him. I am sure he knows what he is doing. These folks usually do. There is not much you can do for him other than support him should he see what he is doing.
He needs a friend and he needs to see a counselor before he picks up the answer to his death wish..
He is risking his life. You are concerned. You are doing the right thing to speak of this to him. Sometimes we have to step on toes to do the right thing.

Ewwww he sounds asthough he could have a whole lot STD's...i think he should get himself tested....and hopefully he won't be passing whatever he's got to anyone else.

You can try to make him aware of the dangers but when it comes down to it, its his life and his choice. Its totally irresponsible and will probably backfire on him at a later date

He should know he needs to get tested and he is taking a risk. He is playing with fire.

yes he should be tested and my suggestion is find better friends.AIDS is forever and we need to stop the spread of it.Only protected sex with untested partners should occur damn now imagine if he has sex with the girl down the street a year later you have sex with her you now have slept with everyone she has and all there partners(including his)

You should, if he is a close friend and one you care about. What he's doing is really risky sexual behavior.

Yes, he's just asking for an infection.

Yes, and for mental illness as well--he must be suicidal.
