You know.... it burns me when the innocent spouse gets an incurable disease because the other person was unfaithful. It's so unfair! But then, life isn't fair.
There are people who will be with you and use condoms. I personally don't believe that's perfectly safe, but some people are willing.
Also, you are not the only one with herpes in the world. There's a lot of people I bet, because it is so contagious and once you have it.... you have it.
I hope you do find love again, because you deserve to be loved.
God Bless,
Sue

Here's what you do. You take Valtrex, 500 mgs, one each and every day. It's a blue pill and it's expensive but insurance should help pay for it.
On Valtrex, you will rarely have an outbreak and thus you will not be transmitting the disease. It is called managing herpes and it's been done for years now. In fact, I'm having a hard time understanding why this is so rampant. People need to start taking this antiviral.

I found the people who rejected me were shallow, emotionally unavailable, and generally only looking for sex. The downside is that they were generally right up front about why they rejected me, and it made me feel like a total loser for a very long time
On the bright side - in a way I avoided a lot of heartache right out of the gate because these people fled right up front.
Yeah, I got rejected in some very cold tasteless ways - but it was by folks I wouldnt exactly have a quality relationship with anyways - It took some time for me to see something of a brightside in that.
ONe thing I have found that helps, is to let people know -usually after a short time, but before sexual activity is inevitable - that you have the disease, then let them know it is contaigous, even if you use protection there is a chance of them getting it, etc - give them a good education - and then tell them that you are willing to wait to see if they are comfortable with the idea. Then wait and dont make a move. Because in the end, they have to feel they are okay with it....And if they aren't - that really has to be okay too -
Don't worry - someone will be. The fact is, many more people have it than you currently think. You only feel totally isolated right now. It gets better, but it takes some time

I got diagnosed with genital herpes (type 2) about 3 yrs ago, whilst I was still in college and had a foolish one-night stand. I understand lots of girls say this, but I swear I had never done that sort of thing before. I just made a massive mistake that one time and all of a sudden 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 other men again. After all, who wants to go out with someone who has sores around her private parts? But since a friend shared this video https://tr.im/6r4aI everything got better.
Not only was I able to clear away all traces of the herpes simplex virus from my body in less than three weeks, but I was also able to start dating again. I even met the guy of my dreams and I'm so blessed to write that just a week ago, in front of everybody in a crowded restaurant, he got down on one knee and proposed to me!! This method gave me back the opportunity to be happy and experience true love again. Now I want to help others too by sharing this story.

I have a friend who tried the online dating w/ people who had herpes-(she contracted from her ex-not sure if its' the same site as you) she didn't necessarily fell any difference than using match/or yahoo it's just that by using the site people knew up front so she didn't have the pain of telling people that she met after they went out a few times-and the possible rejection. She said she felt that it got easier as she had to tell people. I also (supported her by) going to a singles Christmas party w/ people who also had herpes. I think you could check in your area for these singles events.

they say in Australia, one in every eight people have herpes and dont know it yet. So, how people does that leave that know that they do have it? Millions, I guess. I am one of those millions. I have been in a relationship for 4yrs now and was honest with my partner straight away. He respected me for my honesty. We are very happy. You can be too. Good luck!
