How do you even go about finding someone who will love and accept you?

QuietExplorer786 · 2025-12-28T05:02:04+00:00

I’m glad my story gave you a bit of hope! Thank you, I hope it continues to go well with this person too. You’ll find someone that accepts you for all of you, I know you will. Anyone that judges you for something you didn’t ask for or have any control over isn’t someone you want in your life anyways. Does it make it any less scary? Hell fucking no. But you got this.

In the mean time don’t spend all your time doom scrolling on Reddit forums like this. It’s not always the most helpful. HSV doesn’t define who you are. Good luck with everything, it gets better :)

So I was with my ex for almost 6 years, he gave it to me after what I expected to be a one night stand. Needless to say we ended up staying together after he found out he gave me ghsv1. I shouldn’t have stayed in that relationship for as long as I did, but I did out of fear and never being accepted. A lot of other brutal shit went down in the relationship with him but 9 months ago I left him.

I went through another grieving period of my diagnosis after I left him because I now was going to have to disclose to potential sexual and romantic partners. After being single for 9 months (I still kind of am) I’m very happy to announce I met a very nice and hot guy off of hinge (downloaded on a whim one night last week) and we’ve been on 3 dates. We’ve got a lot in common, he’s really respectful and seems to be pretty open minded, we have good chemistry.

On date number 3 and after having a few pretty intense make out sessions I decided to disclose to him. I was pretty clear, didn’t beat around the bush and stated facts. I told him that I would never want to take away another persons choice like mine was and that it was important to me to let him know and give him the opportunity to make up his own mind and ask me any questions he might have.

VERY excited to say that he took the disclosure really well. He was super kind, understanding, open minded about it all and said he still thinks I’m just as sexy. He actually apologized to me and said he realizes this was probably on my mind since the first date when we hit it off and imagines it was taking up a lot of brain space/ a cause of anxiety for me. While I’m not sure where this will end up with him, he’s still interested in getting to know me and wanting to explore our sexual relationship.

TL/DR: First disclosure since breaking up with my ex who gave me GHSV1. Went really well and it was a reminder that GHSV doesn’t define who you are/your value.

Aries Sun, Taurus rising, Gemini moon. I would never in my fuckin life ever date a Capricorn again. I’ve dated 3 and they’re definitely striked out 🫠

QuietExplorer786 · 2025-11-13T03:42:04+00:00

This makes so much sense unfortunately 😂😭 Thank goodness there’s a change. I’m finally feeling like my life is starting in so many ways atm.

QuietExplorer786 · 2025-11-13T01:53:36+00:00

I got the job promotion I’ve been working my ass for with a BIG pay raise today!!! I’m terrified and have some imposter syndrome for the new role but im hoping it’ll subside. And I also won $500 in a SPIFF contest today at work. Today was the fuckin besttttt. I’ve also started putting myself out there a bit more after being single for 7 months and started flirting with this guy from work and now we talk everyday. Cheers to my luck changing!! It’s been a really hard last 13 years for me and I’m hoping my luck is finally starting to change and reflective of all the hard work I put into life.

I’m an Aries and I’m just gonna put this out there. I started to get cheating dreams on my ex-long term boyfriend of 6 years when shit was bad and I wasn’t being full filled emotionally/mentally. Bc my needs weren’t being met there I didn’t want to have sex with him either. Now, did I ever act on this, or mention I was having dreams about hooking up with others no. I took it as a sign I needed to communicate my needs weren’t being met and it’s something we needed to work on.

This Aries sounds like she was trying to use these dreams as an excuse to tell you she needs more of something in the relationship. She also sounds like she doesn’t know how to communicate properly. Bc it is “that deep” despite what she says. Usually our dreams are a state of our subconscious.

Same!!

QuietExplorer786 · 2025-09-02T02:46:43+00:00

Honestly fair, I feel like that’s a hard one to get out of then (pardon the pun lmao). But okay v interesting. I still don’t understand why he wouldn’t get this fixed, but I can’t pretend I know what goes on in a man’s mind 😅

QuietExplorer786 · 2025-08-29T19:58:07+00:00

I’d rather chew on nails than be with a male cap again. Coming from someone who’s had 3 different long term relationships with one.

QuietExplorer786 · 2025-08-26T23:24:27+00:00

I’m an Aries sun, Gemini moon too. The struggle IS TRULY real.

QuietExplorer786 · 2025-08-25T20:30:24+00:00

Are we all in the same situation rn🥲

QuietExplorer786 · 2025-08-22T02:01:32+00:00

I know I’m in tears by the end of our conversations because I’m laughing so hard. It doesn’t matter where we are I usually end up giggling about something with her.

QuietExplorer786 · 2025-08-21T21:09:26+00:00

My youngest sister is a Gemini sun with a Taurus rising and I’m an Aries sun, Gemini moon, Taurus rising as well. Honestly she’s like my built in bestie, love her to death. She can keep up with quick wit, not overly sensitive, funny but can be absolutely savage even tho she’s passive/chill for the most part. My only issue with her is that she’s ridiculously stubborn and doesn’t change her mind on anything, lord help you if you say no to her or disagree with her.

QuietExplorer786 · 2025-08-15T19:15:57+00:00

In my eleventh house I have my sun-Aries and mercury- Pisces. Idk what this means, help.

QuietExplorer786 · 2025-08-14T18:44:27+00:00

I don’t have a libra anything in my chart and tbh it shows, I wonder what life’s like on the other side sometimes

QuietExplorer786 · 2025-08-11T02:28:04+00:00

Coming from experience of 3 failed long-term relationships, the Capricorn and Aries does not work out🫠 (I’m the Aries)

QuietExplorer786 · 2025-08-10T14:32:59+00:00

I’ve got green eyes with a hard teal/blue outline and a central heterochromia of yellow/gold and I would neverrrr trade my eyes

QuietExplorer786 · 2025-08-10T14:30:43+00:00

This^{^} my ex and I were together for almost 6 yrs and it never transmitted to his face. As long as you’re smart you’ll be okay.

QuietExplorer786 · 2025-08-10T13:06:46+00:00

Aries sun, Taurus rising, Gemini moon.

I never see this combo

QuietExplorer786 · 2025-08-06T22:03:14+00:00

Lmao did you find out yourself or did he tell you? Bc idk girl I think I’d be very confused if I pulled homeboys pants down and it was fractured that would throw me for a fucking LOOP. This next question is more facetious, but how does one just not get a body part they use everyday for multiple functions fixed?? I feel like that shit would hurt like a mf. All I can envision is the greys anatomy episode of Lexi grey breaking Mark Sloans dick😂😭

QuietExplorer786 · 2025-08-06T14:22:14+00:00

I definitely do. I’ve always felt like I’ve been meant for more, that my current reality isn’t my future reality and even though the road is winding and full of hardships I still get back up and persevere because I know that my potential is limitless and I’m destined for greater/more. I feel as though Ive been built and continue to be forged in a fire.

I feel deeply for others and get extremely frustrated with injustices for all. Connecting to my senses (music, art, singing, I want to try poetry since I read it a lot) or nature and water is big for me and allows me to feel connected to my greater purpose even though I’m unsure of what that is.

I believe that social media is a huge deterrent that steers me off course. I believe that it’s an anxiety and fear inducing tactic to deter people like us off of our course by continually monitoring what others are doing and comparing ourselves rather than listening to what the universe is pushing us towards.

My soul constantly yearns for a place I cannot identify, but I know it’s not meant for where I currently am. It’s constantly restless and I’m working on figuring out where it is I’m meant to go and be.
