Life changing news.

[Ritch]

I went to the doctors a few days ago for a rash. He looked at it for 3 seconds and told me to pull my pants back up. He smiled awkwardly at me and told me "you have herpes". I didn't want to believe it and did everything but yell violently at him to give me a test. He was right, I have herpes. My girlfriend was tested and is currently waiting on the results. She tells me she will love me no matter what and wants to be with me either way. This is just too hard for me to believe. For those of you that have never been told those three little words, it hits you like a bowling ball in the face. Everyone knows it doesn't go away and now it's always funny to joke about it until you get it. It sucks.

I am looking for some advice with my girlfriend and will the disease if anyone has it.

Thank you.

Sorry to hear that. I hope that all guys out there will be careful. It's not all about just getting laid, it's protecting yourself too. Most guys just worry about results, never thinking that their lives will change once they bang a dirty little sluvt. Do you know how you got it? From who? It's up to her now whether she stays with you. Don't be surprised if she walks if she doesn't have it yet.

I would suggest researching it a bit more. Herpes is forever, but you only get out breaks a couple times throughout the year. A lot of times you may even forget you have it.

There's a possibility your girlfriend may not have it. For some people, they are just a carrier.

There's also a possibility your girlfriend GAVE it to you. Either unknowingly, or knowingly. I wouldn't run it past anyone these days.

I'm sorry to hear the bad news. But life moves on. A lot of people have it. At least your girlfriend is understanding. If all else fails with her, then there is dating sites dedicated to people who suffer from with STD's. So don't think it's the end of the world.

ya 89% people in the world have herpes... well, type 1 that is, and most people don't know about it. If you get sore or ulcer in your mouth, under the nose b/c you overworked, you have herpes.

herpes II is sexual, yap so don't feel too bad. you know, in that sense i have herpes too, although it's type 1
