[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many people get HSV while very young, before they are sexually active.  HSV-1 is extremely common, even among people who never had sex, because people share bottles, forks, etc., and HSV-2 can be transmitted orally too.  There are reasons why standard STD panels don't test for either HSV-1 or HSV-2.  [b]The reasons are that all types of HSV are extremely common and not a very big deal for people who have them.[/b] [/quote]

This is very true.

Most people carry the HSV virus of one type or another.

It’s comical how few adults understand how common HSV really is:

“As of 2016, about 67% of the world population under the age of 50 had HSV-1.[3] In the United States, about 47.8% and 11.9% are estimated to have HSV-1 and HSV-2, respectively, though actual prevalence may be much higher.[4] Because it can be transmitted through any intimate contact, it is one of the most common sexually transmitted infections.[5]”

The posts on this thread make is seem like genital herpes is:
Acceptable
Not bad
All the cool kids have it
It's normal

It is not. And if OP wants to have a normal dating life for the rest of his life he will not risk 3 minutes of fun for a lifetime of genital herpes. [/quote]
Lol. I got it from a long term BF I dated from ages 21-24, 20 years ago. I proceeded to date and find a great husband with no issue. You just have to disclose. Maybe I am somehow lucky finding smart guys who understand public health, but truly I had no issues and haven’t given it to anyone. [/quote]

try to date in your 40-50s with HSV2 as a woman. Or getting married. You will see what people here are telling you[/quote]

Heroes or no herpes dating for a woman over 40 is hard. Sex is easy. She can be 70, a 30 year old horny man will have sex with her.

However, finding a man who wants to seriously date a 40 years old woman good luck. [/quote]

Not sure why you keep pushing your agenda. I had several man dating me seriously/exclusively for over 6 months. I left most of them  myself [/quote]

Why weren't you able to find at least one of these men who was worth it to keep longer? Could it be that they were glad you left them? Or is it another situation where he begged and cried for you to take him back?[/quote]

I had better options . My dating life for LTR is way better in my 40s than 20s [/quote]
