Hi,

 

I feel your pain. I was diagnosed 2 years ago with HSV2 and have just been rejected from a guy I really liked because he didn’t want to catch it. 

 

I’m sad it didn’t work out but I’m trying not to take it personally. I just worry is there anyone out there that is mentally stimulating for me and who also accepts the fact I might give them herpes. I think the social stigma is the worst and sticking together to share success stories will help.

 

Here’s to hope. Xx
