Hi. I have a problem. I have a girlfriend. We are together for 5 months now. She wants to have sex. The problem is I have genital herpes and I can`t have sex with her. Should I tell her that or not? Maybe I should just leave her. Are condoms safe enough when you have genital herpes?
Hi. Genital herpes is a sexually transmitted disease, as you already know. You should avoid sex with uninfected people. You should avoid any sexual contact with them. You must tell your girl about it. She has a right to know. Condoms are no good when you have genital herpes. They can`t cover all the sores. Sorry, but you can only have sex with infected people.
not true! if you're not having an active outbreak it should all be finee. the partner should know, and decided based on the risks, what they feel comfortable with. but it should be fine, fine, fine. :)
