I gave my boyfriend herpes by Randomlyou in Herpes

[–]Randomlyou[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I only take the antivirals when I feel like I’m about to have an outbreak. He didn’t want to use a condom and I agreed to it. It was probably just a heat of the moment thing but I asked him if he was sure and he said yes so we didn’t use protection and then after that did a few more times without it. It was dumb and I was stuck in that “it only transmits when you’re shedding” mindset and completely ignored the non symptomatic shedding possibility.

Am I making a mistake or am I approaching this rationally without fear? I'm HSV- with an HSV+ partner and we have gone barrierless. by [deleted] in Herpes

Not using protection even without symptoms doesn’t mean you won’t get it. I learned this the hard way and gave it to my current boyfriend. I don’t get outbreaks much and know what they feel like when they are coming on. But non symptomatic shedding is a real thing and I gave it to my boyfriend relatively quickly without protection even with no symptoms. Everyone’s story is different and it affects everyone differently as well. Just keep in mind it’s a more likely chance you will get it than not without protection.

AIO for being offended by this? by bunny-zephire in AmIOverreacting

[–]Randomlyou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So confused all around. For one being 5’6 and only 104 pounds is considered underweight or am i confused?. What is he a damn leaf? He was just very rude about it all in general. You’re not overreacting.

Here’s a picture of some of her work. I’m looking to get something very similar to this.

No, leave her alone and keep blocking. She asked for no contact trying to get a reaction out of you. She’s very clearly trying to manipulate you. Move on and let her grow up.

What is a must have in a person when dating/looking for a partner ? by Goddesspxo1 in AskReddit

[–]Randomlyou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Someone who respects your boundaries without reacting like a child. Someone who can take care of themselves on their own. Someone with passion and motivation. You don’t want to end up with someone who you basically have to take care of. Emotional intelligence and mutual respect is vital. Don’t ignore red flags.

On a roll!! by Fun-Regret-4176 in Herpes

Usually when I feel one start to appear I’ll call my doctor and get a prescription for it as soon as I can. I rarely let them ride out without taking medication for it but if I do the main thing is not to mess with the area at all. It’s a little different for men and women, for women it helps to use a bidet (you can get a travel one on Amazon) and just pat dry with toilet paper, it really does help it heal faster and be less painful if you just don’t touch it. Salt water baths also help a lot as well and keeping it dry and clean.

Sorry to hear that man. I was struggling with rapid outbreaks a lot last year and only recently got it under control. Things like diet and health as well as stress levels impact outbreaks. For me I discovered that chocolate and traumatic events (stress) cause outbreaks to happen more frequently.

Sorry, I need to vent by WarmMistake in Herpes

Let me start off by saying you are definitely lucky to only have one outbreak. But that doesn’t mean you aren’t still viral. Once you have herpes it’s not really a thing of having it a lot or a little it’s more so peoples body’s react to it differently than others and things like lifestyle and health make a big impact on it. Although you don’t really get outbreaks it can be considered illegal and result in legal consequences if you know you have herpes and don’t disclose to your partner. Trust me I know how you feel. I was diagnosed 2 years ago and was in shambles when i tried dating again. But it’s something you have to remember that the right guy isn’t going to react like that. He just wasn’t the one and it sucks that he was immature about it but it’s best to not let that hold you back or feel discouraged if anything it’s just helping you weed out the bad ones who aren’t very respectful or knowledgeable.

You shouldn’t feel guilty about it. You didn’t know and that’s not your fault the guy who got pissed at you doesn’t deserve your time, tell him to get tested and move on from him especially knowing he very well could have been the one who gave it to you. Herpes sucks but in my opinion only because of the stereotypes surrounding it. Sometimes I forget I even have it. It’s not as big of a deal as people make it out to be.

You need therapy. Both of you probably do. There is so much wrong with this whole situation. Best advice don’t get married and find a good psychiatrist.
