Has anyone filed a law suit over someone giving them herpes when you feel like they knew about it along and didn't disclose?

    That's a good question.  I'm pretty sure that I got the virus from my ex, but I don't believe that he knows that he has it.  Sadly, many men don't visit doctors as often as they should.

      Well I still haven't been diagnosed yet but sure I have it not wanting to come to terms with it though. But mine told me he gave it to me and laughed and my life isn't going to be easy now and I feel like he should go to court over it. My friend said I should file a lawsuit.

      You should speak to an attorney about it.  See if someone will take the case.

    I've thought about it. People can sue for HOB given to them unwrongfully, why can't we for herpes?

      Yeah I read somewhere where it is considered negligence or sexual battery for not disclosing. And the only thing is how do you prove it with these hippa acts. I can show them my negative result 3 months ago now I just need his.

      It wouldn't be against hipaa if you ask him permission. There are papers for permission. Working in healthcare, if we have an accidental stick, we get tested, and also have the patient sign a paper giving permission for the testing. I believe something similar would happen if it's court ordered.

      Do you think he would give me permission to put a case against him v

      Have you tried asking him to get tested first? If he already had been tested, they could probably do subpeona the tests results. The only way of knowing if you can is actually talking to a lawyer and seeing if you can get a case.

      Yes he tested first that's how I knew. He supposedly got tested a week after we hooked up and told me. But I feel like he knew otherwise he wouldn't of said we couldn't cuddle when I first seen him and he wouldn't of laughed at me when he told me.

      Sorry, I was getting your story mixed up. You might be right. Honestly, Werth laughs when they give someone a virus like this?

      Right!!!! I wish I would of never let him touch me and I hate myself for it. I knew I shouldn't have and I beat myself up everyday and just think why why did I do anything with that POS.

      I thought about that too, I'm still FURIOUS. But I would think technically it might be public record, I'm not POSITIVE, but STD's are, aren't they?? AND that's what we are dealing with right?
