Herpes 2

I was recently tested positive for herpes 2 and I have a few questions (hopefully you all can answer them)

1. How do you like the suppressants? Do they help overall? Do you still have outbreaks if you are on the suppressants?

2. Should I tell my mom? I am 20 years old, but like me and my mom are very close. I just feel like she would be crazy disappointed so I don’t want to tell her at all.

3. Can I still be eaten out without giving herpes to anyone? (I read on here that as long as you’re not having an outbreak that I should be fine, is that true?)

4. What is the best way to have that conversation with a person you are very interested in?

4. Scenario: I had sex with this man that kinda slept around with a lot of people throughout his time. I let him hit without a condom because it wasn’t working with a condom on like it wasn’t going in and I was like screw it (BIG MISTAKE) However, the sex was absolutely fantastic. I am like 100% positive I caught herpes from him because I had an outbreak about 4-5 days after me and him had sex. I had never had any prior issues before him. I have not told him that I got tested and that it came positive for herpes. Should I tell him that he gave me herpes?

There is just a lot floating around in my head about the entire situation. I know a lot of people in the world have herpes and I am slowly getting over the fact that I have it because I mean in reality (from what I have read and what I was told from my doctor) it really is not that big a deal. If you have any advice, please feel free to share! I’m open ears :)
