One of the first thoughts that went through my mind when I found out about the herpes was 'Will I ever have a relationship again?'. Substitute the word 'relationship' with the word 'sex' and you will have another of my thoughts at that time. However being the proactive kind of guy that I am I immediately had a look around for dating sites for people with herpes - I was suprised to find quite a few.
I have considered the concept of online dating in the past and I am always interested in new ways to meet people. 'Herpes dating' seems like a slightly different beast but I figure that going on a date with someone where you know nothing about each other except that you both have genital herpes could be if little else an interesting and bizarre experience. I am a man who loves new and bizarre experiences so I recently joined a two of these sites.
I want to be quite clear at this point that I 100% do not intend to only date people with herpes. I would absolutely encourage everyone with herpes to not limit themselves in this way. I have in fact recently been on dates with a couple of girls who I as far as I know are not members of 'community herpes' (although I guess that there is a 1 in 5 chance that anyone I date has it). Herpes dating for me is just another way to meet and if I meet someone I like on one then who am I to argue.
I am sure there will be more to say about this topic in the future!

I just wanted to let you know I enjoy your blog. :)
Keep it up!! It gives the rest of the community hope :)
I enjoy reading your blog. I felt hte same way when I first found out I had herpes... not only that, but the guy that gave it to me (who might I add LIED about him not having it and we were both using protection as well) told me "I guess that means ur stuck with me for life!"
Two years ago I suffered from a type of herpes and I had no idea what can I do on that moment?. My best friend told me that she suffered the same situation and she found on internet a miracle, a cure. So I tried Generic Valtrex and it worked for me too.
