Definately go and get tested, talk to your doctor and explain the situation, don't think your alone because your not, its not the end of the world, dont panic, i was with my ex for 6 years having unprotected sex, one night after having sex he looks down and says "öh i've got a sore", he never told me before and i did ask him in the begining if he had anything, i even asked if he would get tested, he told me he had been tested and that he didn't have any thing, it took 6 years of unprotected sex, within 7 days of comming in direct contact i was diagnosed on my first out break. but it took 6 years of near contact and i was tested yearly because of my job, each year i tested negative, you may to, but there is only one way to know, go and get tested.

if you are positive there are plenty of support groups, and remember that it is only a virus, not a disease.

Best of luck, blessed be.

I also was exposed to this... I was 28 yrs old, and now I am 39. Every year will get better. I havent had an out break in about 7yrs. I was with the same guy for 8 yrs and he cheated when I was pergnant w/ our 2nd child thank god I did not have an out-break until a few weeks after my baby girl was born it could have been deadly to her... she is now 12 and healthy and happy and since then I have had anouther child who is 6 no problems with that birth. I did leave the man who gave it to me and started a new life with a wonderful man and he has not contracted it from me in 8 yrs. keep your chin up life will work out.... you can find someone with uderstanding and love for you!!!! Best of Luck!!

It is quite possible that you will NOT get it so please don't be afraid.  Also, coming into contact with semen does not have anything to do with transmission.  Herpes is transmitted by skin to skin contact and as your regular skin has a protective shield on it, is most often transmitted to the soft mucous membranes of your body such as genital and lip area.
