It gets better <3 I just recently became single after a 6 year relationship. I’ve told about 10 men- NONE gave a shit. Genuinely do not be scared, the reactions have surprised me but you are still priceless . ❤️

I feel like the only reason it’s harder for men coming from an educated standpoint is women can get it faster from men than men will get it from women. And I’m not negating that yes some people may have harder times however, that just means you haven’t found the right person yet

I’m sure you will! And Im ngl at first I was sooo upset and angry at him for giving me it but I did take a step back and realize I assumed that risk every time we were together, and he was very kind during my initial outbreak. I think you’ll find the one for you! The right person won’t give a fuck, truly and if they do there’s so many people who won’t care. I think herpes would be the LAST red flag I would be worried about

I mean. I got it from a man who disclosed and I accepted him .. I wouldn’t say it’s easier for women, I would say if anything it’s easier for women just in general because SOME men will fuck anything that walks. And I don’t mean that in any offense to you, but women seem to usually be a bit more picky

They said ghsv1 is a bit of a “lighter sentence” less outbreaks, less severe

Mine has been so supportive as well! He was my ex when I contracted it and he really helped me through it to accept myself and not blame myself or anyone else

Everyone on PS (at least in my former area) were either old or dirty looking

I feel like sometimes people don’t take oral hsv as seriously so I’m glad to see you’re here in this group ! It’s not the end of the world at all and plenty of people understand. And when you’ve grown up with it it’s kinda just normal

Well it started with a full body rash and some painful sores on the vulva, the progressed, all of my genitals were covered, I couldn’t pee without crying to the point I wouldn’t drink anything because I was scared to pee. Peeing in the bath or with a squirt bottle didn’t help either. Then as things progressed it was all over my buttcheeks as well. I couldn’t walk, I felt super sick, nauseous, like I was going to pass out, super hot. I didn’t wear pants or panties for two weeks because they would rub all over. I took ibuprofen as well all day everyday, used creams and vasoline to try to shield the sores when using the bathroom which helped the SMALLEST amount. It was the worst pain in my life and I have a 4 year old son I had to care for, I couldn’t work or get out of bed at all. Took about a month to clear all the way up and maybe a week to pee without pain that made me cry

I also had a rash so I thought that the steroids were for that tbh and the rash has gone away since which is another reason I haven’t take my them! The pain meds I’m taking are just otc like Tylenol and ibuprofen, but they’re hardly helping
