My ex wants to sue me because I told his new gf he has herpes

Posted , 4 users are following.

Basically I got with a guy and found out 2 months in he gave me genital herpes type 2 

He denied it blind but I wasn't with anyone else for 2 years prior and o tested negative for everything then

Before I tested positive I saw medication in his room 

'Lidocaine' and 'acicilovir' both herpes medication 

When I found out he gave it me I googled the drugs and realised both were herpes medication 

He denied and said they were his dads for his dads nerve pain hahaha

Anyway I finally broke out of the relationship after months and months of wanting and trying to kill myself 

And I've got a new man who knows my status and loves me regardless 

My ex got a new gf and I asked if he told her because she deserves to know and he said he's not telling her anything because he 'doesn't have it' 

But I told her anyway because I will not watch another woman go down like I did

He's now saying he's going to get me done for slander for telling people he has herpes

Can he do this?

I'm not lying about it everything I said is legit 

He's making people suffer constantly and he's still trying to ruin my life

    I feel your anguish & frustration. I'm not an attorney but guess it will be a complicated & long legal battle eventhough you seem to have hard proofs. Better consult a good defense attorney. Wishing you the best outcome.

    Hiring a lawyer is expensive and the process troublesome, so he's probably only bluffing. Lidocaine is not for herpes, by the way. It is a topical pain relief that can be used for anything.
