I recently disclosed to someone who asked for a second chance. I was scared and embarrassed along with every other emotion imaginable to someone who was diagnosed 4 months ago. I gave the person time to soak in what was said.....finally the result......I was told "herpes, well if youre gonna get an std, that's the one to get, hahahaha".......
No idiot, I thought to myself, but I smiled cause quite honestly I had no idea how to react. Needless to say that I see why H and disclosure is not a bad thing after all. I still cry and I still try to see the positive, even when my inner girl says otherwise, but I know that if someone could start off being supportive but make jokes after what was said, then that person is not for me.
