Thank you for your comment. It makes me feel much better to know I did, in fact, do the decent thing. He is still MIA, but that has given me time to reflect on his reactions. His being livid and closed to my point of view, then disappearing says a lot about his character - or lack thereof. However, it is still very hurtful.

Hi, looking for someone to talk to and offer advice about my current situation. I recently disclosed to the man I've been seeing for 2 months (whom I have not had intercourse with) that I have HSV-2. I feel I was doing the right thing, but his reaction was livid because I deflected the question when he asked me 1 month ago if I have an STD. I just didn't feel ready at the time to talk about it, but now I am made to feel I am immoral and distrustful. I have not heard from him and feeling very depressed. Any support would be much appreciated.

Thank you for your comment - really do appreciate it. Been very depressed as I have not heard from him, and I keep vacillating between punishing myself for being dishonest and telling myself that I did disclose prior to sex and perhaps he is not as understanding as I need a man to be.

Hello, I met a man 2 months ago, whom I have not had sex with; however, we have been intimate. 1 month ago he asked me point blank if I have an STD; I deflected the question out of fear, inability at the time to discuss it properly and not being secure in our status with each other. I did vow to myself that I will tell him before sex. Anyway, I finally just told him, and his reaction was livid for not telling him when he asked. So my question is, am I immoral and distrustful for not disclosing sooner? We haven't slept together, but am I still wrong, especially since we've been intimate? Trust me, I can't eat or sleep over the guilt. But is he overreacting?
