2 years and 3 disclosures later.... herpes is no longer holding me back

I haven't been on here for a while. how is everyone?? if ur buggin about disclosure... DON'T SWEAT IT. really ;)

I remember the way i used run away from everyone and try to hide myself from the world. Feeling guilty, ashamed, and tainted...... but those feelings are long gone.

my first disclosure i was rejected as u all know... but i consider that a blessing bc he had too much baggage with the ex. <>

My second disclosure happened by accident. the guy saw my h forum email.. we talked it out and finally moved forward in our relationship. (But he turned out to be a very insecure, argumentative, intolerable person) <>

Third disclosure was just last week and i just told him. I know we have been seeing each other a while now, I'm not trying to give u blue balls..... but i was trying to build my courage bc u have the right to know i have herpes. he just asked if i had been taking my medication everyday. I said yea and then we moved past it. (Not that it matters now, eveything fell apart this week for other reasons)<>

from my experience i just hope to make someone else feel better by knowing that ur life is not over.. u can still have sex and relationships. Disclosure isn't as bad as i thought it would be....... but relationships still are. :/
