28. Female. Hsv2. NY.....Looking for similar aged female buddy...

yeah I remember when I first got it how painful and extremely uncomfortable it was... But I know they say the first times always the worst... Just curious if I could mistake it... And I just wanna make sure I know as much as I can about what's goijg on and how I could possibly spread it to others... Thank you both so much for responding! @bearose @wcsdancer2010

I see a lot of my questions being answered but by people effected by Hsv-1 not Hsv-2. I am on valtrex and haven't had a noticeable outbreak... Is it possible to mistake a singular zit for a herpe? Also, since I'm Hsv-2 NOT 1 that means I'm only contagious in my genital region correct? I can still kiss people and GIVE oral sex with 0% transmission rate? It's just when I involve my downstairs region I can infect someone?

thank you so much @WSCdancer2010 its great to hear you were able to have normal relationships without spreading! I was under the impression that was nearly impossible, so thats uplifting. and thank you for the links i will definitely be checking them out.

I feel like the more I read up on Hsv-2 the more confused I get... I read to throw out razors etc that have come in contact because it could trigger another outbreak, but than I heard that it doesn't live long airborne and can only be spread genital to genital contact. I just want to understand... I want to have relationships with people without the fear of spreading it to them... Has anyone had a successful long term relationship without spreading it to their loved ones? What precautions do you take? Can it be spread through oral sex too or genital sex? Has anyone worn condoms and still spread it? .... I apologize ahead of time for all these questions....
