ABOUT ME:

I'm pretty average, I like to go shopping, hang out with friends, go to parties. I'm 24 years old, caucasian, blonde hair, blue eyes, 5'4" I was diagnosed November 2007. Once I found out I told my boyfriend. He said "we'll get through it together". Long story short, he's NOT with me to this day (year and a half down the drain). Guess he didn't really love me and couldn't look passed Genital Herpes. It's probably better this way anyhow. All he used to do is ask me if I washed my hands after useing the bathroom. Of course I do, but gee does he really have to make me feel alienated? He lost all sexual interest in me. All he would do is talk about other women and put me down. I feel so alone, no one in my family understands. My Mom is CONSTANTLY telling me to go get re-tested. I was considering it until about a week ago. I have got to get out of denial! I'm so sorry it's so hard for EVERYONE to deal with. I couldn't even tell my Mom I had Herpes until about 3 months ago. I wish I never did. When I go to the Doctor, the nurses are so nice... that is until they find out I have Genital Herpes. After they find out, there's so much tension in the air, they're so rude! Just because I have herpes doesnt make me a slut! I got a bladder infection and I asked the nurse how can I prevent getting another. Her answer was, "well if you didnt have so much sex". WTF?!! Who says I have sex??? People assume too much and it hurts! Ever since I found out I had herpes, I haven't had any sexual intercourse! PLUS I've only had 5 partners in my whole life! One of my X's cheated on me, contacted it and spread it to me. Who says life's fair? I've had one outbreak, and that was when I went to the doctor to get tested. What is the big deal?! Why are people so afraid of herpes? My X was so afraid! He couldnt even try with a condom! What, does he think his balls will fall off? I'm not saying, "hey everyone! lets all go get herpes!". I'm just saying, if your in love with someone, nothing else should matter... unless their infected with a life threatning disease. I just met someone, he doesn't have herpes, but he still accepts me for who I am. I couldn't have been more surprised! I was so scared to tell him, I wasn't planning on meeting anyone. Now I'm glad I told him, he likes me for me. (0: We'll see how it goes. Either way I've now realized, there ARE people out there that will still want to be with you! Until the world accepts it, it will only be harder for the people affected.
