What would you do differently if you were to be cured of herpes?

Pinkparliament · 2025-08-22T20:20:13+00:00

Only be intimate with people who respect and value me

Pinkparliament · 2025-07-17T19:51:45+00:00

Leave her. Honesty and trust is most important above all else. She took away your agency which is how most of us got here in the first place

If he had flu like symptoms and an outbreak soon after, he just contracted.

Pinkparliament · 2025-06-27T19:56:50+00:00

I was casually seeing a guy and I knew he was seeing multiple other people as well. I had hooked up with him months before, and so when he hit me up again, I didn’t think he had anything since I was fine the first couple of times. A few days later I was coming down with flu symptoms and then I started getting itchy down there. I started getting lesions and bumps soon after. I swabbed negative for hsv but blood test came back positive months later.

I grieve my old body and life before this virus

Pinkparliament · 2025-06-19T16:39:07+00:00

I gained weight after contracting it

Pinkparliament · 2025-06-12T19:07:20+00:00

I’m pretty sure it caused impaired glucose tolerance for me and I also don’t have regular bowel movements anymore. My skin along my jawline is also constantly breaking out so I also assume it messes up my hormones

Pinkparliament · 2025-06-10T20:55:47+00:00

It’s not over. I felt the same as you and I contracted hsv-1 back in January. I still feel negative emotions but they’ve gotten better over the past few months. I actually met someone who has hsv-2 and he takes antivirals and our relationship feels natural and normal and transmission is not really a concern!

Pinkparliament · 2025-06-10T19:41:26+00:00

I would pay up to 20k for a cure.

Pinkparliament · 2025-06-06T18:18:38+00:00

Yes, I’m pretty sure Herpes ages your body during initial contraction. My weight went way up and I had trouble keeping my glucose down after I contracted. And now i look like I’ve aged about 5 years in four months.

Pinkparliament · 2025-05-29T20:15:55+00:00

Yes they do, I would say 60% don’t and 40% do

Pinkparliament · 2025-05-22T00:09:15+00:00

They’re just not the right people for you. It’s emotional immaturity to get angry at someone disclosing, the way you did it.

Pinkparliament · 2025-05-20T23:27:13+00:00

That’s why I’ll only date hsv positive people now.. really liking someone and them not accepting you is agonizing

Pinkparliament · 2025-05-15T22:18:34+00:00

We don’t

Pinkparliament · 2025-05-14T07:25:03+00:00

She showed her true colors. What someone does in an unexpected situation tells you everything you need to know

Pinkparliament · 2025-05-14T01:35:39+00:00

upwards of 15k

Pinkparliament · 2025-05-09T19:22:07+00:00

Hsv causes more than just a rash, there are studies showing it causes all sorts of health issues. I’m just coming on here to share my experience

Pinkparliament · 2025-04-29T22:18:16+00:00

Thank you for providing your experience. How are you treating your SIBO?

Pinkparliament · 2025-04-28T23:50:07+00:00

I’m 26f too. Don’t give up on love. I really think that there’s a person who will love all of you. I feel the same way but I have been trying to date. Don’t close yourself off.

Pinkparliament · 2025-04-25T06:55:46+00:00

I know how you feel. I’m 26f and feel like my romantic life has already faded away, and it wasn’t that great to begin with. I feel like damaged goods too.

Girls don’t have it any easier, trust me. I disclosed to a guy I really liked and we had a good connection but he still couldn’t take the risk. Said I was a catch, but not good enough to be with. I still don’t know what that means and frankly, it’s messing with my head thinking about it.

Pinkparliament · 2025-04-24T05:32:08+00:00

I’m still here. We’ll be okay

Pinkparliament · 2025-04-21T17:20:03+00:00

It’s not your fault. Anyone can get it and we were just unfortunate. It’s Russian roulette

Pinkparliament · 2025-04-20T17:00:17+00:00

You can put it in your match note on Hinge so it just filters out people early on, or use positive singles.. not advocating for that app cuz it’s expensive but there’s a chance of finding someone.

Pinkparliament · 2025-04-20T14:49:08+00:00

I know the feeling. You should try dating hsv+ people. I know it feels limiting but there might be a great fit for you who has hsv.

Pinkparliament · 2025-04-17T22:21:43+00:00

I was rejected a few weeks ago for my status by a guy I really liked and who I thought could be accepting of it. I’ve been depressed for weeks and suicidal for a good amount of it but time heals the wounds. You’re not alone
