  1. Breathe, your words truly uplift my spirit every time I read a post by you... Lively, and Virgo Girl, the same goes for you. Thank you so much for your support. Today is a new day and I am going to start it off healthy, and with a clear mind. Since I don't talk to people about this much you ladies re my rock and are very much appreciated ;) just wanted to write this quick not before I get ready for my day..love to u all ;)

  2. So, I have been talking to this guy for two weeks. We have seen each other everyday, and text all day and night. I have not felt this way about anyone in a long time. Yesterday we were at my house, laying down, and he asks about stds. This is the first time a man EVER asked. So, after hesitating for a moment I told him my story and status. At first he had no reaction. A blank face, no words. Then, he said thanks for your honesty, got his stuff together, and left. No kiss, no nothing. I explained the disease in the best way possible, even letting him know transmission rates, and ways to be careful. I have not heard from him since. Needless to say I am upset as he made me smile in a way I haven't for a long time... Any helpful comments?

  3. Thanks very much lively!

     

    You are entirely correct- I think I am more upset with myself for even bringing myself down enough to go to a mans house at two am as if I didn't know why he called me... I do have some self esteem issues as one stemming from having herpes, and some from other things. Very good suggestions on how to approach him with the info. I am just terrified he will tell people at work :/ there haven't been to many people I have told about my "situation" and I have never let anyone get close enough to me (men) to be able to find out. I appreciate your love and acceptance...I saw him today and he did not say a word, so I was really feeling sorry for myself :/

  4. Let me start off by thanking everyone for opinions/comments/suggestions.

     

    I have had herpes for about 11 months now. I got it from a guy that I knew, who I wasn't exactly dating- more like just messing around. The very first time we had sex I knew something was wrong- I was in pain two days after our encounter, and could hardly force myself to go to the bathroom. I noticed two or three white-ish bumps the next morning. One day after that, I could barely walk. I was diagnosed within 6 days of the original encounter.

     

    In any case, I had not had sex since that day.. until two days ago. There is the guy that I work with- I don't know him well... basically just went out to lunch, talked in the office, and hung out this one time. I just started this new position in his department recently, so we have been talking more. Anyways, he called me early Sat morning around 2am asking me if I was busy, I was up, not doing much... so I agreed to go to his house. I get there, and within 20 minutes of me being there he was feeling on me, and our clothes came off. Before I knew it, we had sex and he passed out next to me. Immediately I freaked out. I had not told him about my little "gift", I work with him...and now I have to see him everyday knowing this. I was not on an outbreak to my knowledge, and had started taking Valtrex again only a week before this encounter. We used a condom, which came off when he pulled out. But as far as I know, our sex was protected the entire time. Due to me not having sex in 11 months prior to this encounter, I did bleed a bit during intercourse and there was some blood on the condom. I felt myself multiple times- and I didn't feel any bumps,,,, I looked in the mirror and don't see any where I had my initial breakout, but needless to say I am at home now going crazy.

     

    I feel horribly guilty- and tried to rationalize everything when we woke up the morning after and he told me he actually had a girlfriend that he had hung with before we did what we did. I asked him when the last time he had sex was and he said a few months... anyways, I guess I am not sure whether the Valtrex was working to help prevent transmission since I has only begun it a week prior to this,,,and now I don't know how to look at him again at work. Please help!
