I see a lot of people answering you are completely ignorant of HPV and how it works. To answer your question.... I don't know. It would depend on how much said guy cared for said girl. In an existing relationship it's somewhat better to stay together, to prevent spreading the disease further. As far as dating with HPV, there are web sites that people with all types of STD's use to meet people in their area that share the same virus. There's not much harm in sleeping with someone who already has what you have. For a guy who is free of disease to go into a relationship with a girl who has HPV..... that could take some work. Honesty is the best policy though, and if a guy wanted nothing to do with a girl because of a minor, treatable disease, who's really missing out? Could be the guy. But as I said at the start, most people think they know a lot more than they do about HPV, so I'll share what I know.
The papilloma virus causes genital warts in BOTH males and females. There is a misconception on that because there are MANY forms of this virus. The rarest forms can cause cervical cancer in woman, and very, very rarely cause cancer in men (like less than 1%). The most common forms are all around you, I mean EVERYBODY is getting it. It stems from the fear of getting a positive test result. Most people would rather not know, and in a lot of cases they just have no idea they have it, expecting to see symptoms arise if they contracted something. It is true that SOME FORMS can be carried by men with the men never knowing, going their entire lives without an outbreak. I'm going off memory here, but I believe this is the most rare form, the same form of the virus that causes cervical cancer in women.
It can be transmitted from men to women, or vice versa, or through gay sex. Most commonly men with HPV will get warts, as well as women. There are many medications used to treat these outbreaks, but for now there is no cure. There is however a new vaccine which can be given to young girls, which is said to prevent contracting HPV. I don't know a lot about it though, sorry.
If you are young ladies who haven't started your sexual escapades, look into it. It is a minor disease, but why end up with it if you don't have to?
Also, don't think condoms will save you. Herpes and genital warts can be transmitted by skin contact alone. This doesn't mean that shaking someones hand will give you HPV, it means if you are sleeping with someone who has it you'll get it, condom or no. The warts are located in the groin area, and even with a condom there is still a massive amount of contact being made down there. If you want to be safe, respect yourself and the person you'll be partnering with, tell them you need to do something with them first. Go to a testing facility, and know for sure that you are safe, at least for the moment. But I'll tell you now, chances are you will contract an STD in your life. Luckily for all of us, as these diseases spread faster and faster, the medical field is finding more and more ways to fight them. Go medicine!!! Hope this helped, be careful out there. It's a wild world...

I've had Herpes problem over 3 years. I tried everything, of course I went to the DR. about a hundred times, probably not that many, but it sure seems like it. It never did any good for long and caused all kinds of other issues having to do with taking too many antibiotics. It wasn't until I stumbled upon the information on this site http://herpestreatment.kyma.info that my life changed completely.
I'm feeling so much better now and all of my symptoms are totally gone. I haven't had an outbreak since using that info. Best news: It works even if you’ve already blown hundreds or even thousands of dollars on conventional herpes medication without significant relief…even if you’ve been suffering from herpes for years, and even if your virus is currently in hiding and your doctor claims nothing can reach it.

I know it can work miracles for you if you just let it. See more: Shocking video reveals why Herpes/Cold Sores meds are dangerous

A lot of guys would date girls with HPV. I've read about 75-80% of the world has HPV and only about 20some% of them realize they have it. For all the guy knows, he could already have HPV and not realize it. Since it can take months and even years for symptoms of the virus to appear, most people don't realize they have it and end up spreading it on to other people.

HPV really doesn't do anything to males. It can cause genital warts for them, but those can be treated. It can also cause penile and anal cancer, but this is pretty rare, and happens at a much older age (like 50+). The main concern with HPV is the cervical cancer. It kills 4,000 women a year. That's one of the benefits of this new vaccine coming out for HPV called Gardasil. It protects against 4 strains of HPV (6, 11, 16, and 18). Type 16 and 18 account for about 70% of cervical cancer and types 6 and 11 account for about 90% of genital warts.

I have personally had HPV for over 5 years. I got it from the second guy I had ever slept with. I developed cervical cancer that same year from it when I was just 17 years old, and about 8 months ago I got genital warts from it. When I started dating my current fiance (boyfriend at the time) I had to tell him that not only did I have HPV but I also have genital herpes (I got them both at the same time). I told him before we had sex of course and he was completely shocked because he didn't think something like that could happen to me because I seemed so "innocent". It can happen to anyone though, all you need is one time to get infected. He was super nice about it and didn't make me feel disgusting or dirty about it. We just talked about it for a while and I even gave him some good web sites that had some good information about both viruses so he could look at them in his spare time. He still chose to date me though and so did my ex's before that. I have honestly never had a guy tell me he couldn't date me because I had HPV. All you have to do is take precautions, like ALWAYS using a condom. Even though condoms are not 100%, they are the best thing to prevent spreading STDs (other than abstinence of course).

I got clinically diagnosed with the herpes simplex virus (type 2) about seven years ago, while I was still attending college and had a foolish one-night stand. I realize loads of young ladies will declare this, but I swear I had never done that sort of thing before. I just made a mistake that one time and suddenly I felt like I was going to have to live with the implications for my entire life. The worst part was feeling I could never date guys again. After all, who wants to go out with someone that has sores around her private parts? But since a friend shared this video https://tr.im/1xHhL everything changed.

Not only was I able to eradicate all traces of the herpes simplex virus from my system in less than three weeks, but I was also able to start dating once more. I even met the man of my dreams and I'm so lucky to write that just a week ago, in front of everybody in a crowded cafe, he got down on one knee and proposed to me!!! This method gave me back the chance to be happy and experience true love. Now I want to help you too by sharing this with the World.

To answer your question, yes, I think I would, depending on my feelings towards the girl. I think that the girl also should be able to be upfront and share that info with her partner when they are ready to be intimate.

I'm not a doctor, so I won't go on and on about HPV... and it IS a yes or no question.

Wear protection it is considered an STD. Men get it and are carriers of the virus and can (with some strains) get genital warts. Women can get it from unprotected sex and if their moms have it they can get it when they travel though the birth canal. There are no tests to tell if men have it so any men on here that think that it gross, you could possibly have it and then pass it on and never know it. In women this may or amy not ever show up on a pap smears (yearly exam). In some cases it can go away on it's own others have to be treated with surgery.

If a person truly loves you and wants to be with you they will accept you, meaning all of you.. including your flaws. Nobody's perfect. Also, most men respect honesty. A woman wouldn't like it if a man lied to her about it.. though most have, maybe because they don't know.. maybe they do. After all, if somebody wasn't lying, how would we get something like HPV?

There are two types of herpes simplex virus: HSV-1 and HSV-2. Both virus types can cause sores around the mouth (herpes labialis) and on the genitals (genital herpes). Cold sores are caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV).
Cold sores sometimes called fever blisters, are groups of small blisters on the lip and around the mouth. The skin around the blisters is often red, swollen, and sore. The blisters may break open, leak a clear fluid, and then scab over after a few days. They usually heal in several days to 2 weeks.
The herpes simplex virus usually enters the body through a break in the skin around or inside the mouth. It is usually spread when a person touches a cold sore or touches infected fluid—such as from sharing eating utensils or razors, kissing an infected person, or touching that person's saliva. A parent who has a cold sore often spreads the infection to his or her child in this way. Cold sores can also be spread to other areas of the body.
Luckly there is a cure for herpes https://tr.im/68d90

Human Papilloma Virus, or HPV is carried by the MALE and then females are infected. HPV sorta hangs out like normal flora on the male and does nothing to him. Same with women, it USUALLY doesn't do anything to you, but some women can develop cervical cancer.
