fanou22 Posted March 24, 2005 Posted March 24, 2005 Facts before the question: - You start dating someone you like. - That someone has herpes. - You haven't had sex with that someone yet. Question: - Would you date someone with genital herpes? - If so when would you like to be told about the herpes?
Pocky Posted March 24, 2005 Posted March 24, 2005 Yes, I would date someone with herpes. I would like to be told as soon as the relationship turned serious. For example, if I went out on a first date and didn't ask you into my apartment, I wouldn't expect you to tell me you have herpes. If I invited you into my apartment, I would expect to be told as soon as you come in.
Herpes Posted March 24, 2005 Posted March 24, 2005 I recently contracted herpes from my boyfriend and it was very hurtful that he didn't tell me about it but I don't want to bring it up to avoid putting him on the spot. I think he should've told me though but maybe he was too embarassed or afraid i'd leave him.
Stone Posted March 24, 2005 Posted March 24, 2005 Yes I would & Have dated someone with an STD, and I was very happy they we're honest about it, I think that it took alot of courage to have the conversation.
RecordProducer Posted March 24, 2005 Posted March 24, 2005 I would date someone with herpes, but would expect him to be careful just like he would be worried about his children or parents. I mean, he should know that he shouldn't sleep with me when it shows up and overall take all steps of protection on time. I would expect him to tell me when we know that sex will happen. And he should use a condom, of course.
JoL Posted March 24, 2005 Posted March 24, 2005 Hmm this is a tough one. If i REALLY liked the person and could see a long term serious relationship blossoming out of it, then yes i guess i would..i would just take the right precautions to minimise the risk of contracting it myself.
