Questions and instructions

Question pretext

Now I will ask about men you have had sexual intercourse with in the last 12 months, apart from your husband(s). Think carefully. It can include boyfriends, men you had sex with once, men who gave you money or gifts for sex, or men you did not want to have sex with or who forced you to have sex.

Literal question

Is the relationship ongoing?
