Well, I have lived with genial herpes for 1 year, but have not told a soul. I haven't told family or friends, not that i would be judged but I have already judged myself. In a way I don't feel like they need to know, but I do know I would have to tell future partners. I just want to get to know me and my comfort zone. Is it really any of my family and friends business? Should it be something to be shared? I'm ready to move on with trying to date, but I have my own worries playing in my mind, how do you get back out there? Because of what has happen I find myself very scared to be hurt by people. What to do?
