Dating With Herpes
Are you or someone you know diagnosed with
Herpes? Most people worry that once they have Herpes
they will never be able to engage in a long term
relationship or even date a member of the general
public again. The good news is this isn’t true.
There are a number of things you can do to
facilitate a long term relationship and even healthy
and active dating life if you have Herpes.
Communication Is the Key
If you have Herpes, the first thing you need to think about is
discussing your condition with your partner. It is vital that you
are open and honest with any partner you may be interested in
maintaining sexual relationships with. Communicating the facts
about your illness is the best way to approach your illness. Try to
approach your condition with an open mind, and you’ll find that
other people do the same.
Finding a Like Minded Partner
There are actually many online dating sources available that make
it easy for someone with Herpes to meet and date other people.
Match.com is one of the largest of these online dating services.
Other dating services for people with STD’s that are decent include
the following:

The secret code of herpes dating
If you have herpes, you can place the numbers 437737 in your
online add. These numbers actually spell out Herpes on the phone key
pad, and let others know of your condition, so they can make an
informed choice about connecting with you before you even meet them.
Most people are interested in meeting other people that are willing
to be open and honest with them. Revealing this information right
off the bat lets people know that you are not ashamed of your
condition and that you are willing to be honest and safe.
Responsible Dating
You should never compromise your ideals simply because you have
Herpes. You don’t have to settle for someone that doesn’t meet your
expectations. In fact you should date responsibly and be honest with
a potential partner, looking for someone that holds the same things
dear to life that you do. There are literally hundreds of thousands
of people out there in the same boat as you, thus there is no reason
that you can’t date responsibly and honestly.
Practice safe sex
Remember that responsible dating also requires that you practice
safe sex. If you have Herpes you should always use condoms unless
you are in a long term relationship with someone who knows of your
condition and chooses not to use protection. You should also avoid
intercourse when you are having an active outbreak. Remember that
dating is about connecting with someone. Your physical appearance
doesn’t make up your whole persona, and you aren’t solely the
product of the disease that you have. We are all complex people made
up of many things none the least of which is our personalities and
intellect.
You are far better off meeting someone that appreciates you for all
these qualities than someone who is simply concerned with Herpes.
