    with herpes there is no "blame game" unless someone had been with you and did not disclose that they had the virus. there's really no way to tell how long you've had it or who gave it to you. has your boyfriend tested positive ?

    Well I would recommend you to hurry up and do a swap test before it heals since its the most accurate way to know if you have HSV or not. because your dr doesnt seem to be confident.

    however unfortunitly i dont think there is a way to know who gave it to who. but try to talk with your bf

    Ive read everywhere that you cant tell how long youve had it or who gave it you BUT when i spoke to a doctor last week (im in the middle of my first outbreak) she said it was highly likely my boyfriend has passed it on to me. We slept together and i got symptoms the next day. He has no symptoms at all but she said to have an outbreak as bad as i have had its unlikely ive had it for longer than that. I asked why have i caught it now if weve been together for a year and she asked if id been run down, which i have. And she said thats why. So much contradicting information everywhere its confusing.
