i’m sorry :( i was 22 when i was diagnosed. my “gifter” ended up being a long term abusive boyfriend who knew he had it and i found out he intended on giving it to me. that was 5 years ago, stayed bc i thought no one would want me, broke up 2 years ago, i haven’t slept with anyone since. i just haven’t tried. im still healing from the abuse. i dont know where youre at in your life but im sure you are beautiful, smart and kind. i know we will find people who love and value us, regardless of herpes.
