Thank you, your words are so helpful. People on this website are so honest and forgiving. I’m happy the website creator made this available. I know it’s saved lives. I’m not sure how to message on here, so that might take me a minute to figure out.

Omg! Your story describe me to a T! I just broke up with my first bf of 2.5 years this week. I’ve been crying all day long. He messaged me (he couldn’t even call) and told me his result were negative. I was shocked! I never been with anyone sexually but him and I also had those nagging feelings that he wasn’t the one. I stayed with him because he was going to buy a house and gave me a promise ring. But, I felt stuck and settled when I found out about my diagnosis. I knew I couldn’t be with that man but he was a good guy or so I thought. I know it’s hard rn but it will get better. My sister told her diagnosis to the family several years ago and I looked at her horribly. I regret that and now she is my biggest supporter and we talk nonstop. I appreciate you sharing your story with me. My sister tells me to realize how I am discovering the journey of loving myself. We both had a super critical mother so we do have issues from that. I feel a bit sorry for my ex. He is not accepting what happened to him and will waste time caring that baggage and hurting people.

Hi! I have to say reading all these messages and made me feel not so alone. I was in a 2.5 year relationship. I just ended it. I tried to be in denial or try to cover things up and not pay attention to my pain. I realize that has done more damage to me than reaching out and saying yes I have herpes. I have hsv 1 and 2. I’d really appreciate a Hbuddy. At the moment, I would appreciate a female buddy. Thank you all for your kind words.
