OK so someone told my crush that I have herpes!!! I don't!!! What to do?

Question

I was out at the bar last night with this guy I have been talking to for about 3 weeks now. While he was in the bathroom an old fling of mine was in there too. He told him that I have herpes!!! (Wich I don't!)

My guy asked me about it and I set the record straight with him but now I am worried he will always have that in his head. I am scared he will fall off the radar.

What do I do about this?!?!

Answer 1

If he's going to believe your ex, that's his problem. Tell him your ex is a pathological liar. And, make sure to write your ex's phone number on the bathroom walls everywhere, say "For a Shi((( time call -

Answer 3

How do you know you do not have it? 80% of the population has oral herpes and 25% has genital. The vast majority has no idea they have either.

What would make me nervous is that your ex may know something you don't know. Maybe he has it and is assuming that he gave it to you, or that he got it from you. In any case, your ex sounds like a real piece of work. Anyone who would do that, does not deserve to be trusted anyway.

The best thing to do is go to a dr and have a blood test taken. That way you can be sure for youself that you don't have it, and you can show the lab report to your boyfriend. It is a good idea to have a test done before you begin any sexual relationship. That way both of you know what you are getting yourself into!

Answer 4

that actually happened to me in high school!! some girl didn't like me so she told a bunch of people i had herpes, and it got around to my boyfriend. i told him it wasn't true and he believed me. he was a really good guy.

i think if this guy trusts you and really cares about you, he will believe you. if not, then you don't need to be with a guy who doesn't care about you enough anyway.

good luck, i hope it all works out.

Answer 5

Well you already set him streight, that should be enough. If he brings it up and you really like him let him know you would be willing to be tested to prove it to him. But I believe if he really likes you that shoudn't even come up. The guy that told him should be kicked in the you know what for even putting that in his head.

Good luck to you.

Answer 6

Well, I believe in today's time that everyone should have a Sexual blood test whenever we decide to date or sleep with a new partner. Easy, have a test and if it comes up show him and ask for his. Be aggressive.

Answer 7

if he likes u and know that the person who told him that was an old fling of urs. than he wouldn't have that in his head and would believe u.

Answer 8

if it really is an issue go to your dr.and have the test run and given that the test comes back neg, thats all the proof you need.he is only saying those things to be hurtful for he is probably jealous that you are seeking involment with someone new.

Answer 9

Tell him how gossip is made up up erroriferous things as dumb as your epidermis is showing then mention you don't have herpes but a bunch of the population does The survey conducted from 1988 through 1994 showed that 21% of 9,165 participants tested positive for herpes simplex virus type 2, compared with 17% of 11,508 participants in the more recent survey

Public Health & Education | Herpes Prevalence in U.S. Declining, Study Says
[Aug 23, 2006]
The prevalence of herpes in the U.S. is declining, according to a study published in the Aug. 23 edition of the Journal of the American Medical Association, Reuters reports (Reuters, 8/22). Herpes is treatable but incurable, according to the Washington Times. Women with active herpes usually undergo caesarean-section deliveries to prevent transmitting the virus to their infants during delivery because genital herpes can be fatal for infants, the Times reports. In addition, genital herpes can increase a person's susceptibility to HIV transmission. The study -- which compares data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey conducted by CDC from 1988 through 1994 with research from NHANES conducted from 1999 through 2002 -- finds that the prevalence of herpes declined among people ages 14 to 49 between those time periods. The survey conducted from 1988 through 1994 showed that 21% of 9,165 participants tested positive for herpes simplex virus type 2, compared with 17% of 11,508 participants in the more recent survey (Wetzstein, Washington Times, 8/23). The overall decline of HSV-2 might be because of "unmeasured factors, such as careful partner selection, condom use, and/or choosing oral sex over vaginal sex," study author Fujie Xu of CDC said (Reuters, 8/22). In addition, the study finds that the greatest decline in HSV-2 prevalence -- 5.8% to 1.6% -- is among teenagers (Washington Times, 8/23). The decline among teens and young adults "provides biological evidence supporting findings from behavioral surveys that sexual risk behaviors decreased in adolescents," researchers wrote. However, there are not enough questions in the survey about sexual habits to definitively explain the decrease, Xu said. The study also finds that HSV-2 prevalence among blacks since the first survey decreased by 4% to 42% (Reuters, 8/22). In addition, the researchers found that herpes simplex virus type 1 decreased from 62% to 58% but that genital herpes caused by HSV-1 might be rising (Washington Times, 8/23). A rise in oral sex rates might explain the increasing HSV-1 genital herpes rates, according to the researchers (Reuters, 8/22). "Overall, this is good news," Xu said, adding "There is a decrease occurring in all youth, males and females, and in all racial groups"

Answer 10

Don't worry about it. If its a huge deal tell him before you two have sex you want to make sure your both clean, go to the doctor together and prove to each other your each clean.
