Hi Thumper it's been a while, anyway your right, there isn't anything on handling rejection. I had one of my best friends come visit me this weekend with this girl i guess he's messing with now. We were bar hopping last night and Friday night and he kept trying to be my wing man, which is cool but i was afraid of the rejection that would come later on down the line. Though I'm not too worried about the sex thing for now cause my schedule is pretty full with fights for at least the next 2 months, i should be able to hold off but i still have that floating in the back of my mind.

@ 2Legit2Quit I agree with you. I'm just gonna take it easy and focus on what needs to get done with me. I actually have a few fights coming up anyhow so i don't really have time to date anyone anyhow. But when i feel ready to date again maybe giving girls with H isn't a bad idea. But i wouldn't even know how to go about that. It's not like it's writen on our foreheads lol. Something i would like to do is meet with people with the same condition just to hang out. I libe in Baltimore now and my days are work and boxing, its pretty much all work no play with me. I obviously don't know where your at but if people get together from this site in the Baltimore area countme in. Thanks for the advice.

Wow this was an awesome story. It gave me a bit of hope but i still feel down cause of everything that I've been through in such a short time. But I think i wanna remain Abstinent, in the hopes of running into someone worth investing time into. This way i don't really have to say anything about my condission cause i don't really have intenssions of having sex. It's a really hard task for me to do tho because i have a really high sexual appetite. But the stigma of just talking about it i think is enough to keep me abstinent. Thw last rejection bothered Quite a bit

@ LB12 I completely understand where tour coming from. So far I've had the samething happen to me twice. It's really taxing on me emotionally and mentally. I first found out about it a week after i got marriedand my ex wife said that she was ok with it and that she loves me and we'll work through it but over the last 2 years of the ending of our marriage i could see the look in her eyes were different. There was no desire for me all, i tried so hard to bring the romance back and her hart belonged to someone else now I've been single for a while I've tried to get back out there and it just sucks. I've meet 2 women that i really liked and wanted to be with and ad soon as i told them it was a complete 360. It was both at the same time or anything lol they were both months apart. But it just hurt so bad. I was told the same thing you were told that i was a good guy and i was amazing, but i guess that's not worth anything anymore. I mean i understand where they're coming from but it does suck for people like us who are constantly rejected. I'm having a really hard time dealing with it cause. When my ex left she left 2 states away and took the kids. Now i live in Baltimore and i dont know anyone. So I've had ti deal with my divorce, my separation from mt kids, the lose of my family, doression, loneliness, the list goes on, I've had to do it all by myself. I think thats the worsed part of it all. Im also just looking for support, a friends, something so that i can feel normal again. That's the reason i joined this forum, so far i haven't really interacted with anyone yet, but the information is good and the stories. But i still get depressed.

@ 2Lefit2Quit nope not at all bro. I actually got shut down like a week or 2 ago. And we were hitting it off real good, but i felt like i had to tell her so i did. Than she completely switched up on me and made it seem like i caught feelings way too fast. So i just let it go.

Hi everyone, I'm a 21 year old female from New Jersey. On NYE I started feeling sore down there but attributed it to rough sex (my gyno asked what "rough" met lol awkward). Anyway, a week later I finally took a look down there and was totally at a loss of words. Although not in a relationship, I had been sexually active with this one person for months. I was diagnosed with H the next day. Still waiting to figure out which simplex although at this point I'm thinking HSV2. It hurts and it's uncomfortable. It looks a lot worse though than it feels I suppose. The emotional damage is unreal. I have always had clinical depression and now this just makes it 100 times worse. I know in the end no matter how careful you are, sex is like Russian roulette. I really would like someone to talk too. Anyone. I don't know how to date on a good day and that was before my diagnosis. Hi there I'm Alex I'm new myself to this forum and I'm back on the market i guess you can say. I'm not having much success tho because of the issue, ive been in a state of depression myself cause of it and other things but i hide it pretty well lol. Anyway idk how this H buddy thing works but i know i could use one. If you wanna talk that feel free to write me.

That's cool man. I had 1 good disclosure story. The relationship was strictly ssexual, it lasted about 2 or 3 months but i had to cut it off with her cause she was getting to attached, and i didnt wanna hurt her feelings. I was just going through a divorce and wasn't at all ready for a relationship. She understood and were good friends now. But ive had no such luck ever since her tho lol.

Are there any support groups in Baltimore? I can also do PA I go there alot anyhow. What days do they have them?

Hello everyone. I'm new to this forum, or any forum for that matter. I've had a really bad few years and this passed year has been the worst EVER. To make a long story short, my wife of 4 years left me, took the kids and moves to Virginia after we all moved the year before to Maryland. So I'm stuck in Maryland trying to get back on my feet aafter the divorce because Maryland is the closest to my kids that i can afford. Things are pretty much civil between us and we work with each other as co parents should but things are still hard. Emotionally I've been a reck not because of the divorce. I'm over that. But because I found out I may have the virus a week after i got married, apparently things didn't work out and i never thought i would be single again. But the dating scene hasn't been go ao well for me. So far I've meet to women that i was really into and thing between us were awsome. I was into them and they were into me, but as soon as i told them about my issue they completely changed. It has adfected me really bad, not because they changed and didn't want me anymore but because of the reason why, the reason being the virus. It makes it even worse that i don't know anyone out here where im at. My days consist of work and going to the gym because i ddon't like being home. I'm a boxer so i spend alot of time training, probably more than i should but when your depressed and have no one to talk to it's either find something constructive or get into a bad vice, and i refuse to let my kids see me beat. In all reality I'm looking for some support, meet new friends and see what this site has to offer. Hopefully i can get some insight or something. I don't really have any problem sharing so just ask away if any questions.
