Well as stated I am new here. I have had this curse for almost 9yrs now. Its sucks and it also is embarrassing. I contracted this curse from a past gf who didn't tell me she had it after cheating on me. At first I was so upset but after I came to terms with it I just learned how to deal with it. I just wish there was a cure for this ungawdly curse. I have always been open and honest with women who would like to go the next step. Some have left and others have stayed. I am in no means a manwhore. But I know how it feels to get this curse and not be told. Thats why I always let my partner know and wear protection. Sorry for the ramble but it feels good to vent. Ty.

My amazing boyfriend contacted it 30 years ago and he was open with me. We thought we were being careful but I guess not.
I was devastated but reading what others have to say has truly helped!

Would you mind sharing your experience in more detail?
- how soon into dating did he tell you?
- what was your reaction?
- how protective measures did you take to reduce risk of transmission?
- how long were you all sexually active, until you got it?
So sorry you got it, but as much as I hate having it and I have days when I'm angry, as I experience symptoms every single day.. Even on daily suppression and about two obs a month, there are some positives I did get from this as well. I know that sounds weird, but I think it's forces me to be stronger, reevaluate things more, establish boundaries more and many more things...

Have you ever passed it to anyone? Do you have 1 or 2?

You say you feel bad for rejected but if you really think about doesn't it make you feel better being rejected then lying to someone and not telling them and they end up catching it and then the real troubles begin. Your name and good nature would mean nothing anymore, you would be an outcast in your own town or city. I do get symptoms once in awhile where my spider senses tingle. The back of my left leg starts hurting, I pee every 10mins it feels like. As for the type I have I don't know. I was told I have it because I went in when I was having an outbreak. I get what looks like little water blisters on the bottom of my head on my penis. They are there for a few days then they go away. I have learned stress is a huge huge reaction to an outbreak. So I try and live stress free as much as I can. So again I am sorry if I ruffled your feathers.

The condition itself is absolutely nothing in relation to HIV, Cancer, Blindness, Paralysis etc. By the sounds of things the cards you've been dealt aren't bad at all, you've got a wife-to-be and a kid. Yeah it's not ideal, it hurts and is embarrassing, however, there's people going through so much worse.
