Be up front and honest about it. You'll be amazed at how many people out there already have it.... though most don't seem to know. Your partner does deserve the right to decide on what they feel comfortable doing though due to the risks involved.

I agree. Honesty is the key to any relationship, especially when an STD is involved. Just have to put the confidence back into myself & not worry about society and what everyone else thinks. Ugg!!

You aren't deformed or hideous, you just have something that many other people have. You still have a lot to offer, and the right guy will understand. When I was in Las Vegas, there were social groups for HSV+ adults. In fact, working in the field I do, the bulk of our patients were HSV+, some for MANY years, and they didn't know it.

As long as you have common sense and are aware of changes occuring in your body you will always know when you about to have an outbreak and YOU SIMPLY REFRAIN FROM ANY/ALL SEXUAL CONTACT until the sore(s) are completely gone.
It is the ignorant selfish people who give all herpes sufferers a bad name!!
Your partner will not catch it as long as YOU care enough to always be in tune with your body.........and ALWAYS be up front with your partner, It's only fair to give THEM the choice to trust you and take that chance...
