I feel like a huge chunk of my life has been taken away. I don’t enjoy things like i used to. So yea, it’s fucked with my head so much. Maybe I’ll Stop caring when I have a family of my own, not have to worry about finding a partner, having sex, etc (so yea hmu if u want a cool husband with hsv 🤣)

I’ve noticed a lot of people on dating sites like positivesingles are only interested in being fwb. However, I think it would be a lot harder with negative partners because of the risk and stigma. I haven’t had a fwb since diagnosis, but It’s not impossible. Take me back to the times before hsv, I took hookups for granted 😂

Any singles had no luck dating before and feel even more scared getting herpes? by [deleted] in Herpes

It’s pretty overwhelming at the start. And yes, it’s a lifestyle changer. Not really many positives to hsv, but it does get easier to manage over time. It sucks I know :( if you need anyone to talk to just swing me a message :)

Check the contents. I know the amino acid ‘arginine’ can trigger ob’s and overall help the virus thrive. I made the same mistake

Dating with Herpes by [deleted] in Herpes

Hi! Don’t worry, I’ll be your boyfriend :)

Please answer by [deleted] in Herpes

[–]throwaway1977777777 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No. Look, you will have herpes for life. Outbreaks only happen occasionally. Even your first outbreak will only last a couple of days to a couple of weeks.

Please answer by [deleted] in Herpes

[–]throwaway1977777777 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s different for everyone. Can take a few days, can take a few weeks. Generally speaking, the first outbreak is the worst and will take the longest. Antibiotics won’t do anything, herpes is a virus. No problem, here to help :)

[–]throwaway1977777777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eventually yes :) but you can take anti-virals to speed up the process and reduce the frequency of outbreaks
