Thanks for the comment @WCSDancer2010. I see you on a lot of threads so I assume you must be a moderator. Regardless you are appreciated! So if she has it on her genitals why do I keep reading how it can be transmitted to different body parts? Not too worried about getting her pregnant. Just was not well educated on what was going on with her body. Just wanted to be safe and make sure that it was something I wanted to do. And we use a condom all the time. BUT now she is talking about what if this relationship goes into marriage, would you feel comfortable not using a condom. I had not really thought of that. Off the bat (no pun intended lol) im hesitant. A part of that is me having "trust issues"... my own problem I guess. I even thought about the whole improving sex life thing too! lol. But she isn't that adventurous.... so that got shut down : /

Man Herry thank you a lot! I've tried calling the help hotlines (206-344-2549 and 919-361-8488) and couldn't get through for crap! There's this huge stigma about HSV and I will say that after reading up it seems to be over hyped. Lo siento my man if I offended you or anyone on here. Was not intended to at all just 100% honest pure feelings. Story Time: I've been trying my hardest to stand by her too. I remember when she called me and told me. I was on lunch at the post office and she was so broken up on the phone that she could barely talk. : / I knew as a man I had to be everything else to the side and be a friend first. And I like her more now than when she told me 2 months ago. She has ended up being my best friend and now my g/f. But lately she has become more comfortable with being positive I guess and somewhat changed. She says I dont touch her anymore but we cuddle at night is an example. It all has boiled down to sex it looks like. I am sure you all have your stories and I plan to stay on this board, frequently visit, and talk to others ... possibly connect. @Herry @ Silliness thanks for the views and taking the time to care. See you all around : ]

we both went to the doctor to go get checked out. she hadn't been in about 3 years for an STD Sti because she was with the same person for 5 years. me on the other hand whenever I switch partners I would get checked after 3 months. she was clean of everything but got the news that she had HSV 2. she broke down bad whenever she told me and I told her we would see how things go. I've done a lot of research and nothing really scares me except the whole asymptomatic viral shedding. which leads me to my questions. And also she hasn't had any visible symptoms 1. can she pass it to me by simple kissing hugging holding hands or anything non sexual? keep in mind she doesn't know what an outbreak feels like or looks like. I'm afraid that she could have it on her arms or her chest 2. is it wise for her to sleep in her panties in my bed? I pay a lot of attention to her body now. like for instance she'll have bumps on her chest and whenever she does I try to stay away from it or she'll have bumps on her arms and I'll do the same and its not on purpose its just that the whole idea of catching it doesn't sit with me too well but I want to be with her. if we were married and I caught it would be a different story but just for the whole boyfriend girlfriend thing it's a bit too much for me. I really do like her and I want the relationship to work but since knowing.... things have definitely changed. she isn't on any type of medication since we stopped having sex also. please help me board!
