    Did she tell you before or after you had sex?

    If she told you after and knew about it and is "oh, by the way..." that is just fuckin' wrong! The deserves a serious bitch slapping!
    If she told you before then it was you that was playing with fire.

    She told me before.

    correct, one is not a "good" herpes.

    I disagree.

    Have you ever seen a Valtrex commercial? Couples in love hiking, biking, canoeing, holding hands, and other such shit.

    If that's what herpes is the sign me up! ;)

  • Couples have some options, but none are 100% effective. The pill that you take only "supreses" the virus. This means you will have less breakouts. But, even if there is no breakout you can still pass it from person to person. That same medicine can make an outbreak much shorter. I think the average outbreak is like 7-10 days. But with that medicine it is like 3 or something. From the liturature that I have read, the first outbreak is the worst, then they are a bit less severe. Condoms will not protect against this b/c rarely it is directly in the right place of the condom expecially on females. Plus, having sex during an outbreak is said to be very unconfortable, so I doubt there is sexual intercourse going on.

    My best girl friend has been diagnosised with this about 3 years ago. Her ex fiance cheated on her and passed it to her. She is now married (to a different man). Her husband knows about, and they do just fine. He is aware that he may and even probably will contract the virus...but he is willing to take the chance I guess. She has also told me about some concerns with pregnancy and the virus.

    yeah dude, they do seem pretty happy and more active than the avg person.
    But I notice that most medicine ads in the US show people really really really happy and whatever, then the narrator quickly says "this product may cause dizziness,diarrhea,cramps,blah blah blah". Gotta love advertising.

    This type of stuff is unnecessary, joke or not, it's just not very mature.

  • If you've had chicken pox you have herpes.
    Not a spreadable kind once it's dormant though.

    Perhaps I can offer you some NON-VIOLENCE education. No woman (or man) deserves a bitch slapping. I am fond of the following teaching, and apply it's principle of forgiveness in my life (towards my childhood sexual abuser):
    "Not an eye for an eye as the golden rule?"
    "No. It just leaves a room full of blind men." -This can be heard on Dave Matthew's recent album "Stand-Up". Another teacher includes Ghandi, who said, "It just leaves a world full of blind men." I first learned this by reading the bible.

    Take some personal responsibilities for your actions, gentlemen. Perhaps if you do not know your partner's sexual history, you ought not sleep with that person.

    I don't think that's always true, if a guy beats a woman up, then beats another woman up, then continues to do that to women for years, do you not think that some older brother of one of those women should find the guy and slap him silly? or do something about this guy?

    I dislike violence, don't me wrong, but if someone puts their hand on you in an act of violence, break that hand.

    I just got a call from my doctor, my blood work is in, i'm herpes free. i'm kinda surprised really, I thought I had symplex 1 for sure since it's so prevalent.
