Hi Jasmine10: Girl, I can totally empathize your feelings as I was just diagnosed two weeks ago yesterday. My outbreak was horrendous and now that I finally feel better from that, I've been dealing with urinary retention for 9 days. I met a guy on Bumble at the beginning of November and I thought he was a really great guy and that we were heading towards a relationship. He even waited until the 4th date to get physical with me. I thought I hit the jackpot. Almost 2 weeks later I had my first outbreak and I knew what it was immediately. He ended things with me that day and had all kinds of BS to tell me. That he had slept with people who have herpes but he never caught it. That he's never had any symptoms and his doctor said he has nothing to worry about. And that since he had chicken pox, the HSV antibodies show up in his blood. After doing research I know that is all a big freaking lie. I even found his ex-wife on Facebook and messaged her to see if she knew of him having herpes. I know it's him though because two weeks ago I tested negative for HSV because the infection was so new. Like you though, I'm not even mad at him. In fact, my anger and disgust with myself subsided rather quickly. I actually believe that nothing but POSITIVE can come out of this situation. Dating has been a total nightmare for me and I've met oh so many frogs. Well this is going to filter out the frogs real quick and I'll be able to find someone who truly cares about me despite my HSV. You'll be surprised by how many people actually have HSV but they just don't talk about it. This is also going to give me a personal growth opportunity. Instead of trying to get a guy based on sex, I need to use my other MANY qualities to form REAL relationships with people. This is also going to get me back in the gym and eating healthy again to keep my immune system up. I KNOW how crappy you feel right now and for a few days I wanted to end my life. And if someone rejects you, they could have easily rejected you for the way you wear your hair or the way you chew your food. I urge you to try and find the positives in this situation despite it feeling so bleak right now. Hang in there ❤️
