Thanks so much for your feedback. I am a gal. And I've told one partner and they rejected me. So the last guy I did not tell because of this advice. However, I don't feel that way. I feel I want to disclose and if they reject me then I'm quite fine with that because I'm not ashamed of it and deserve love just as much as the next girl who doesn't have it. I wanted to tell the last guy I dated but we went out got drunk and ended up in bed. So at that point I took the advice of not disclosing because of the advice given and with already sleeping together I didn't know how I could now tell him. Nor did I think we would continue dating but we really fell for each other. We broke up because he has a lot going on his life and just not ready for a relationship. Although we are not together, if we were ever to reconnect I want to disclose before any sexual activity. Do you have any advice on how to go about this?! This is hypothetical because i don't know if we will cross paths again, but If it does happen I want to let him know because this is someone I could see spending my life with and I want to be completely honest. If I find a new partner I'm ok with how to disclose, but with this guy I don't want him to feel like I deceived him because that was not my intention at all.

I acquired hsv 1 genitally. It's been years with no outbreaks. I've talked to a few doctors and say disclosure is up to the individual due to it being extremely rare to pass and that transmission rate approaches 0 after the first 6 months of initial exposure, and that transmission is limited to a woman giving birth if she is shedding during that time. I would like to know peoples opinions and thoughts on the advice that I've been given.
