Listen with your heart. Not sure if that's any consolation.. Type 2 rarely causes complications or spreads to other parts of the body. Below the waist is bad.

Not surprisingly, education, honesty, and openness. No offense was meant. Feminists these days, am I right. I pointed that out. What's more, anyone who disdains or humiliates you for having herpes was never worth your while. Take things slow and lovingly. Also, if I knew I was likely to catch HSV-1, I would prefer genital over oral. Many, many microorganisms we encounter in our environment enter us and change us.

For example, what if sexual pleasure and intimacy is explored at a level of comfort for both partners as the two people get to know each other emotionally and romantically and take the measure of their compatibility? I've never, ever heard of anybody actually using one. The discussion could take place anywhere you feel safe and comfortable.

Stop worrying and get tested! - It was like the UTI from hell with all these weird other symptoms thrown in.

I've met a great person whom I like very much. We've had a few sexual encounters that are just shy of intercourse, but needless to say, I understand that this is enough exposure to transmit STD's. After the 2nd enounter, she mentioned that she is HSV2 positive. I'm now torn between my desire to continue dating her, and protecting my own health. I understand that the chances of having picked up the infection from her over these 2 enounters is very small, and I also get it that if I choose to date her and have regular sex with her which is a given if I do date her , then I'll have about 5-15% risk of getting it. I'm also getting tested myself again just to check that I'm not already HSV2 positive - again I understand the national statistics of 25% incidence and there is a good chance I have it and don't know about it. So I'm educated about it.... If I turn out to be positive, I'm sure I'll continue seeing her. It's a simple decision. If I'm negative, I'm inclined to reject her. But this feels wrong on so many levels... For the next 3 days while I'm waiting for my own test results, I'm not likely to share this decision framework with her. Not sure how to feel ok about this... She is a great person. We are a great 'fit' long term. And the sexual chemistry is the best I've felt among all people I've dated and feeling is mutual. Passing her by for fear of HSV2 sounds stupid. I'm pretty desirable for a niche set of people who are in turn interesting to me , this is a rare crowd. You don't have to like my line of thinking, but its pragmatic : , and adding HSV2 positive status to my list of limiting constraints would make future dating pool only smaller for me. So taking a chance on her now might not work out very well for me in the long term if this relationship doesn't pan out and I'm unlucky and catch it -but considering our chemistry, I expect there will be significantly above average freqency of sexual contact... So I have a dilemma. Do I go with the bird in hand, or move on and hurt a decent person in the process... I don't know how to think and act in a manner that is right by me, right by her, and is also pragmatic. I'd appreciate any thoughts here... I accept that I'm flawed, imperfect, selfish etc. It is of course true that many people are seriously impacted by genital herpes, especially if HSV2 not so much with HSV1. Still, it is also true that norainbow's experience is atypical. The large majority of people with genital HSV2 quickly learn to live with it, without serious disruption of their lives, romatically or otherwise.
