OK, so I started seeing this girl. And I really really like her. Like, a lot. I slowly feel myself following in love with her...
But... she has herpes. Said she'd respect any limits I care to place on what we do, etc... She's had it awhile, takes medication for it, always uses protection, hasn't had an outbreak in a very long time, etc... None of her previous partners have caught it (partners she was with for a year or more).
Does anyone have experience being with a partner with herpes (and NOT catching it)? Normally, this would be an instant dealbreaker. But I really adore her. Obviously we could only do "safe" things (ie: no intercourse, mostly just manual)... but I wouldn't want her to feel like I was always keeping her at arms length. In time, that could cause major emotional problems.
Experience? Advice? I like her so much, and don't want to break it off. But if I'm going to break it off, now would be the best time before we get more attached.
Thanks!
