Hi, I don’t know how and when should I tell my boyfriend about herpes. We didn’t sleep together, but he already asked me if I want to do that. I am very embarrassed, but I feel that I have to tell him.
Yes, you should tell your boyfriend about herpes. It would be insane to infect him on purpose, because this disease can cause some serious complications. This virus is for life, and you certainly don’t want to ruin someone’s life. Be brave and tell your boyfriend! You can use condoms and have a safe sex, it doesn’t have to be over. I believe that you’re embarrassed, but know that you’re doing a right thing. There are too many people who have sexual transmitted diseases, and everything would be different if they have just used condoms. Tell your boyfriend and let him decide what to do.
