I have recently been invloved with a man that does not know what I have. We have great chemistry and he is a great kisser. He has made it somewhat clear he wants to take the next step. I keep delaying the matter. But I know I am going to have to come clean and tell him. This really sucks but I suppose this is what living with Herpes is. Having to break the news. But I guess if he wants to leave me because I have what I have...then he wasnt all I thought he was. Which is okay too. Maybe I should use the old standard line that I will only sleep with a man that is willing to marry me. Marriage usually scares men don't it? Much more than a STD...HaHa. We shall see what developes.....I will keep you posted.

He was willing to have sex but I wasn't

Hi MariposasButterfly, my name is Camilo and I am monitoring this Sharepost Community. I would like to thank you for posting your story on our site. If I may be of any help, I suggest that you consult an article by our featured expert, Dr. Grayson. The article is called, "How to tell your partner". Good luck with everything, and I hope that it works out between you and your significant other.

Hi Mariposas,

Thanks for writing. I know how you feel because I have Herpes and have found myself in the same situation many times. I'd love to help you, but must tell you I'm not a doctor and so cannot offer any medical advice. However, I can tell you that the key is knowing both when and how to tell your partner. I have been pretty successful at doing this...although not always. I will be posting two blogs in the next week going into detail about when and how to tell your partner. If you can wait just a little bit, I will let you in on my tips! For now you can read my first blog about Getting Diagnosed. Also, the page about Dating and Relationships is useful as are Dr. Grayson's tips on How to Tell your Partner, which has the general ideas of what I will discuss.

So please check back and I hope I can be helpful!
