Depressed

so my bf and i had a sexual intercourse. we used protection but he went down on me to only to find out he gave me genital herpes but he had no presentable blister. does that mean he has herpes too?

HSV1 is the cold sores that present on the mouth, so yes he has it but probably on his mouth so when he went down on you he would have transferred it to you. i am sorry that this has happen to you.

okay so the discharge is liquidly and excessive. will it stop once the outbreak is gone?

i really have no idea. i just know that it can be transferred this way.

Yes, the discharge will stop once the sores are healing or have healed up. And don’t be depressed. There’s actually more people with herpes than those who don’t. In the vast majority of cases, it’s just a mild skin infection and nothing more. It’s not a death sentence or anything. Eat well, sleep well, exercise and avoid triggers (once you learn them), and you’ll probably barely have any outbreaks again. Don’t let it get you down. It’s not worth it. I know it’s easier said than done, but please try. :slight_smile:

yes i understand but i do feel like there isnt anyone out there for me. i have this virus for the rest of my life & i cant do anything about it but cry. i cant sleep at night.. its all i think about
