Hi i was told i have herpes over a yr ago. I started seeing this guy in sept 2013 and then o had my first outbreak In dec 13 I was in a terrible state. He had never had an out break that i knew of anyway untill nov 14. He has been so cool with it for all that time never asked questions or accused me.

My first out breeak was awful. I cudnt sit down. Go to the toilet. I was in such an awful state.

BUT his "first" outbreak was a few blisters and i mean a few like 3 and so small. Lasted for 4-5days. I was shocked....... which made me think has he already had an outbreak before i met him??

    Women typically have FAR worse outbreaks than men, even primary outbreaks. Chances are, this was in fact his first outbreak, but it just didn't present quite as badly as yours might have. Not fair, I know.

    Yep, notice how you mainly only see women posting on here and how horrific it is? One of my friends had herpes for some time before her primary ob and her first ob, she only had 3 sores. Some peoples immune system, does better w herpes than others. Did you tell him before hand that you had herpes? He was OK w it? Did you ever ask him of he's been tested?

      Thank u for the reply.

      I told his as soon as i got the blisters and even before i went to the docs. We are very close and i phoned him straight away. He was ok dealt with it really well. He then went to the docs and got tested and it came back positive.

      I'm not gonna lie... It sounds Luke he didn't even get sick either and typically your first ob, you do get sick. The fact he never questioned, which most people would and is so cool w it, leads me to believe he knew he had it or suspected it

      People lying to others about their status is a common theme on here.
