second herpes disclosure...it seems to get easier everytime

[jessi03]

Its almost going to be a year since I found out Ii have herpes. It has change my life but in a positive way. After all the negative thoughts that went through my mind I took some time to be alone and I got to know myself better. This experience made me stronger and I like the way I feel. I'm thankful because I haven't had an outbreak and is almost going to be a year now. My first disclosure went well but we stop talking I must admit it got me sad but that was his decision. My second disclosure was less hard and I'm still talking to him I do get nervous but I'm just seeing how things go.

:) This feels so good to hear, Jessi! I'll never forget your transformation from shy and reserved to POWERFUL JAGUAR on our Herpes Opportunity weekend together. Wow.

 

And I'm super proud of you for continuing to educate others that herpes ain't that big a deal at health fairs and the like. Inspiring. You rock, sista.

Thank you for sharing this. I just got diagnosed 2 days ago and all im looking for is hope and strength. This is really motivating for me. I know its going to take time but I want to be as positive about it too, although its kind of hard still. Im going out with someone whom I believe passed it on to me. Ive been so down that I havent even wanted to see him much less comfront him about it because im afraid of his reaction. I do have strong feelings for him and im not upset with him. I just dont know how to comfront him about this situation.
