How to date knowing you have herpes???

Posted , 4 users are following.

I have hsv2 and I seen people talking about dating while having this same std but I’m just curious how? How do know when to tell someone you have it? How do you know the won’t bash you? How do you feel comfortable enough to think they won’t tell the world? I go to college and I’ll say I’m attractive most guy at my school that try to talk to me are athletes or fraternity guy or people that are well known and I’m just like I could never date these people now they will probably tell all there friend about me? Like I just don’t kno how to live anymore. Like I look down on myself now and I’ve lost all self confidence and I just don’t kno what to do? I could really use some kind of advice. I’ve told no one about it because I feel so disgusting and know they will think different of me. And what makes it worse is my whole family think I’m just amazing when I just don’t see it anymore.  There always bragging on me to people which makes me feel worse. My family and my mother especially is always ask me about who I’m dating or If I have a boyfriend...my mom always asking about marriage and having kids...which just makes me depressed. I’ve been talked about my whole life growing up (not being the prettiest but having a nice body and then I had acne) and now I’m at the point in my life where everyone think I’m pretty not just for my body and it suck that I can’t see what they see. I’ve never really seen myself as pretty and I only lost my virginity to make myself feel pretty and I ended up with this....I regret it so much. It just really suck I never really enjoyed my life always getting called ugly, or she has something because I had acne but now that everyone think I’m pretty it just hurts even more know that if I just wouldn’t have ever lost my virginity I could be living life like I always wanted....I know it’s not the end of the world but it really feel like it

    Your in a trap of no self love. That’s what needs to be worked on. And the universe is forced you to because now you can focus on guys or sex anymore go on the herpes life website and read some of their articles they’re very spiritual and perfect for what you were talking about there’s actually a girl I’m talking about it right now I am reading the thread send me a private message

    I feel the same way but if God send u or me a man from Him I feel they would not do that. My son's father gave it to me and is so shamed he won't even admit he's had it for years but his mom told me she thought I knew. so he's trying to blame it on an ex of mine who I haven't had sex with in 12 yrs. my son's father n I have had unprotected sex for 7 yrs I never cheated. so now we're broken up and the man I love can't even support me. we broke up before this that's why I got the std test done and every year I get a std test along with my pap. try not to worry and don't be ashamed and tell your self you are worthy and beautiful daily. you are God's princess I hope this helped
