Re: Lacking sex due to Herpes

I can understand your dilemma. I know this may sound strange but, for extra protection about the condom line, you may want to try saran wrap. I have been told by my clients over the years that many babies have been prevented with plastic wrap also! Weird, huh? As for me, I was diagnosed almost a year ago with HSV I and II and haven't touched a single soul. I am so put off by this herpes virus that I don't have even have sex with myself! I have avoided kissing completely and I question whether or not I should ever try to date again. It helps that I am 52 and have been married before. A cheating husband gave me both HSV and HPV. A lovely gift, right? We are no longer together for fairly obvious reasons. I wasn't going to wait around until he brough HIV home to me. So folks, my question is 'how do you explain your virus' to a potential date/relationship or do you actually look for people on herpes dating sites? I am taking the Miracle-Mineral-Supplement now. Prior to this, I took a half a dozen things including Quick Clear, ravensara essential oil and astragulis to cut down the viral load. I have only had one outbreak since I found out and I have been under tons of stress with my divorce, house foreclosure, etc. Thanks for listening/reading
