I have hsvII. I'm single and want to know how it has affected peoples dating lives. I know it makes it a lot harder. I've just had to tell my someone while on a date, i thought they wanted some sex. Everything has changed since I told them. I've only known for about a month, and i'm trying to remain positive (lol, positive *sigh*), but i know my life has changed. left brain >I have hsvII. Really!? Me too!! :) > I'm single and want to know how it has affected peoples dating lives. I > know it makes it a lot harder. It didn't have a negative impact on my dating life whatsoever. And it doesn't really make dating that much harder. Why would you say that? > I've just had to tell my someone while on a date, i thought they wanted > some sex. Everything has changed since I told them. Was this a casual and quick relationship OR was this somebody that you took your time getting to know? > I've only known for about a month, and i'm trying to remain positive (lol, > positive *sigh*), but i know my life has changed. That doesn't sound too positive. Describe how your life has changed and maybe we can help you out a bit. Maybe you'll be able to see a different perspective? Hang in there, Angela :)  SignatureYahoo!

I was never mister confidence, and now i feel like a walking virus with a rotten cock. The moral burden of having to tell people that i have the virus if i want to have sex with them has changed the way i see dating. I've just stared taking valtrex daily. I now have a renewed fear of std's, and sti's. And i've just had to write to my ex and tell her that she may have it. left brain >> It didn't have a negative impact on my dating life whatsoever.

Wouldn't you want a potential partner to tell you if they had an STD? Isn't being honest the right thing to do? I tell people if it comes up in conversation about the Omaha HELP herpes support group OR that I have herpes. You don't have to tell people if you don't want to ~ but you do need to tell your potential partners that you have herpes before you have sex with them. If you aren't going to have sex with them then it's really none of their buisiness. Now some of my close friends know that I have herpes and so do a few family members. It's not really that big of a deal to me. >> Describe how your life has changed and maybe we can help you out a bit. >> Maybe you'll be able to see a different perspective? > > I was never mister confidence, and now i feel like a walking virus with a > rotten cock. You are the one making yourself feel bad about this. That is what fuels the negative stigma that is often times associated with this STD. You have to stop doing that to yourself or you'll never be happy. > The moral burden of having to tell people that i have the virus if i want > to have sex with them has changed the way i see dating. How did you see dating before? And why is being a responsible person such a problem for you? > I've just stared taking valtrex daily. > I now have a renewed fear of std's, and sti's. > And i've just had to write to my ex and tell her that she may have it. Why do you take Valtrex daily. (I'm curious about this because everybody has their own reasons for being on suppressive therapy) As far as stds go ~ you don't really have anything to be afraid of as long as you are responsible with what you know. Why would you feel the need to contact your ex? Are you on good terms or something? Hang in there, Angela :) SignatureYahoo!

Link Exchange: http://www.yoshi2me.com/link-exchange.html STD Message Board http://yoshi2me.com/phpbb/index.php I was put on Valtrex b.c I was having outbreaks ALLL THE TIME! I thought my whole world was going to end, but then I got on the internet and joined groups like this and realized that this isn't such a bad thing that everyone makes it out to be. What made me feel better about it, is that I started to think that I would use Herpes to weed out the bad ones and helped me realize the new ones easier. you should maybe think of it that way. >I was put on Valtrex b.c I was having outbreaks ALLL THE TIME!

Messenger - angelals1970 STD Message Board: http://yoshi2me.com/phpbb/index.php Dude. I feel for you, I'm in the exact same situation. Having herpes isn't a big deal, but telling people is. I nearly killed myself because of the turmoil that came along with HSV2. I've built this: www.datesafe.co.nz - you may be interested in it.
