I was diagnosed with herpes a few months ago and my boyfriend and I were both unsure of when or who had it (as it can be present in your body for years without any beeakouts). Occasionally it seems he gets breakouts that he doesn't see as "herpes" but rather dry skin on his dick and refuses to get it checked or tested. I feel he's in denial about it and doesn't believe he actually has it. Whenever I break out I feel super alone and disgusting. And honestly because he seems to think he isn't infected (which I suppose he could not have it...but very unlikely) I feel I have no one I can talk to about it. Does anyone else's SO behave like this? Does anyone feel like they're of less worth since they found out? That you're tainted? That you're not the same person you once were?
