I really liked this guy and he felt the same. We were developing more of a relationship and then i had to tell him....i have genital herpes type1. I got it from a boyfriend when he had a cold sore during oral sex. I have had only one outbreak but i wanted to be honest with him.
I feel horrible about myself right now because he no longer wants to see me. He said we can be friends but his whole demeanor changed when i told him and he ended our date quickly. I know i will probably not hear from him again. I feel like i will have to "settle" with someone now who will be willing to deal with this f'ing virus. The guy I liked was somewhat of a germaphobe so i had a feeling this would be a big deal to him. Posted on 06/16/12, 04:15 pm |

there ARE herpes dating sites too. just so you know. but something as minor as hsv-1 is not a big deal. instead of referring to it as herpes and having people get paranoid with these mass forced ideas of horrible weeping lesions all over just say, "i have the same strain of hsv that causes cold sores. An ex boyfriend went down on me and didnt realize that they CAN pass down there too. It has never been an issue for me, it's a very minor strain. But i am also a very honest person." people will really appreciate you talking the time to tell them that.

Your not garbage.
He just wasn't into you enough to accept it. Sorry. I give him props for being honest. You will find someone who loves you enough for all of you. Don't feel like garbage, we all have issues of some sort.

No, there is nothing wrong with you.
The truth is that upwards of 2/3 of the US population (and 90% worldwide) has HSV-1 as it is most often transmitted orally in childhood. If people knew this, there wouldn't be so much fear. This guy is a jerk. You can do better.

i appreciate everyone's opinions. thanks. Unfortunately I really fell hard for this guy and now I have to go through trying to get over him and he is on my mind constantly right now! I know this happens in life, it just hurts so much to lose him.

Sorry you're going through that pain of heartbreak - (((hugs)))
It's, however, really great that you were honest. The fact that you cared enough to be honest, and forthright proves that you are the complete opposite of garbage. I proves you have great character, and integrity! You'll find the right person eventually, just give it time.
