  1. Hey everyone. looks like i'm not alone. I contracted throat HSV2 from my now ex-boyfriend in May. He had told me prior to me catching it. I had a hard time in the beginning but then accepted it...until we broke up recently. And now i'm having the hardest time. He had no problem with it surprisingly and said "you have it, you have it. move on. take the pill when you feel it and thats it." I wish i had that kind of approach to this but it's really stressing me out. I can't tell when and if i'm having breakouts or if i've had any since the initial one. i don't know anymore. I'm self conscious about being with someone and i keep reading that people leave them when they find out. I mean i know i didn't leave my boyfriend when he told me because I thought he was worth it but now i regret everything :( and now i can't tell if i have it on my penis also because i feel tingling lately. Maybe i'm just my brain playing tricks on me cuz i just Valtrex for 3 days because i thought i felt smth my throat. so I don't know anymore. That's stressing me out even more. This is so debilitating. Why does this thing even exist! It's so stupid!!! i used to love kissing and now i'm so self conscious about it. i don't know if i'll ever be able to kiss anyone the same way again...
  2. @Adrial I'd really appreciate your input and any information about my situation.
  3. @WWCSDancer2010 @JessikaRabbit89 @PositivelyBeautiful Thank you all for your help. It's been really hard picturing a future with someone now that I have to live by my mistake. But I also know things can be worse and this is just a small detail in the bigger picture of life. I'm trying to stay positive and try to live with it the best way possible. Thanks again. I'm happy there is somewhere I can for support.
  4. Hello. I'm a 27 year old gay male and unfortunately contracted HSV-2 in my throat from my now ex-boyfriend. He had told me 3 months into our relationship and I accepted it because i saw a future with him and was very careful. Not careful enough however...I contracted it 9 months into our relationship and manifested itself as a throat infection. I then went to my doctor and got a swab test and came out positive. I accepted it at that point because, like I said, I thought we were going to be together for the long haul. We broke up recently (we were together for 1 year, 4 months) and i'm having a very difficult time coping with all this. I feel like i'm never going to find anyone and no one will accept this. I can't find a lot of information on throat HSV-2 and was wondering what the transmission rates are and any other useful information there is that will help me be able to help me calm down and deal with this better. I'm self conscious to do anything orally. I just feel like there is no hope and that i'm going to be alone forever and it's causing me anxiety. Thank you for any help.
