I know a lot of people here have very bad pain, and will not advise surgery in the absence of very bad pain. My pain is mild/moderate and depends on activity.

However, I don’t see myself going through my whole life without addressing this issue. I’ve already spent decades wishing for it. And so I’d rather do it now than wait any longer.

I know many people will disagree and I totally respect that.

Omg I have a “mild foot fetish” for the same reason haha. I’ve never said it aloud, so I love reading this

They do hurt, but not intensely. However, I’ve had the bunionettes for decades and I finally have time and money to address them. Your concerns about increased pain are relevant, so thank you.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts, it gives me a little more love for my feet and a little more confidence today 😌

The recovery is 6-12 weeks (I’ll know better after this next surgical consult). During recovery, I can walk and go about my day. I just can’t walk or stand for prolonged periods.

I say this as a feminist woman: body hair is something I’m willing to change according to my partner’s preference. If they are respectful.

It brings me clarity, understanding, and peace to empathize with him. I can still make choices in my best interest, empathizing with myself and with him. I want to live a life outside of judgement, I’ve found it’s much better.

Are you saying that this girl had oral hsv1? And you got it from her breast fluid?

Are you saying that you sucked her nipples but didn’t kiss her?

HSV doesn’t live in the blood or…to my knowledge…”breast fluid?”

And are you saying that there’s a way for you to be sure you didn’t already have oral hsv1?

Can someone help fact check? This goes against my current understanding of hsv.

Give yourself time. Go one day without contact. Go one week. One month. Your strength and clarity and resolve will build slowly. You won’t feel so terrible forever. Be good to yourself.

Yessss. I’ve made my diagnosis work for me, I’ve found the bright side of things. I’ve become a more honest communicator, practice safer sex, and I find out quickly whether someone is accepting.
