I’ve been feeling really down about having hsv 1 genitally. I recently met a guy that I told up front and very quickly. I wasn’t sure how he would react because of how early I said it. He literally hugged me and smiled and we’ve been doing really great. I’m not 100% if it will become boyfriend/girlfriend because I am still deciding if I’m ready to date seriously. But this was more to say that there is life after a diagnosis. You may not feel like people will want you but anyone who likes you enough will accept you fully. So don’t give up. ❤️
