I just wanted to hop in here because I have struggled with hsv2 for awhile now. It broke me when I found out I had it. I felt dirty and gross and that no one would ever love me again. I dreaded telling future partners and would completely avoid flirting or dating at times because of it. But I just want to say, there is someone out there for you and that someone will love every single part/inch of you and not look at you ANY different because of this condition.
