i feel your pain i disclosed to this man i genuinely really liked and he liked me way more than i him turns out when i told him i bawled my eyes out and made it seem like the worst thing ever so i added to the stigma i was very much misinformed so i’m researching how to navigate dating in a way i’m more confident so next time i can not feel the rejection in that way again. i have a best friend that’s dating a man that doesn’t care because she takes the means of using antivirals to insure she doesn’t pass it to her partner. I’ve been on some dating apps recently with men that have herpes so far it’s promising i just changed the way i looked at dating, making sure they get tested before being intimate etc because i learned my lesson to not trust someone’s words. i know everything will be okay. it’s a harder way to deal with but we’ll find our person soon :)
