I had unprotected sex before disclosing to a partner that I have HSV-2. I had no intention of that happening. I feel horrible and am having a lot of anxiety over the situation. How do I tell him now that this has occurred without ruining the relationship? Is that even possible?! If I were in his position, I would be LIVID. I don't know how to handle this. Please help.

I recently ended a LTR and discovered an app where people are very open about their sexuality and partnership preferences (FWB, dating, poly, etc). We're all human and have desires and needs. It's a question of morals, I suppose. How do I handle these situations? Do I just avoid casual sex? How do I tell a potential partner? I tested positive for HSV-2 probably 6 years ago. I have been fortunate to have only had one outbreak, which is how I discovered I had it in the first place. Hopefully I've expressed my issue clearly. Thanks in advance for the help!

This is my first time dating as a sufferer (?) of HSV 2. I'm pretty positive that I'm going to get all flustered come disclosure time, but that's not the main issue. My question is WHEN to disclose. Obviously, prior to doing anything sexual. What I mean is, I don't want to be presumptive and say something too soon, but I also don't want to "ruin the moment" and say something as we're moving in that direction. What about casual sex? At what point do I disclose in that case? Many thanks to all who provide advice 🙂

Hey all. I'm looking for a buddy (or buddies) in the Los Angeles area. Male or female, preferably someone who has been dealing with HSV2 for a while. I'm 29 and was diagnosed about 2 years ago. I fairly recently ended a relationship and am very nervous about dating with HSV2. Of course, I'm always happy to offer up any support that I can, as well 🙂
