My ex boyfriend's cold sore episodes were rare. 2 or 3 in almost 8 years! Also didn't know how easily it could be passed on.
I was infected genitally and orally a day or so before prodrome symptoms. He doesn't have gHSV.
How long since you were diagnosed? How have things been in your relationship(s). This is all new for me and I'm feeling my way through how to handle disclosure to others.
I've also had concerns about passing infection to my children. Luckily found some good resources!
I've been adjusting to the infection, although I still feel less desirable, and more vulnerable than before.
Ah well! It's early days. Only infected in July!
