I have had herpes for 20 years. I am professionally successful, have many friends, had many relationships, and have not let herpes define me. Over the years, I have gone out with four men, all long term, and had the talk with each of them. All of these men were wonderful about it, including one I was married to for six years. It didn't turn them off at all. About a month ago, I met someone new and really liked him. He was that typical "nice guy" ... he said he often had problems with women because he was "too nice." Unlike many of the men I have dated, he had led a somewhat sheltered life. We talked for hours on the phone each night, said that we felt we had known each other for longer than a month, and were looking forward to doing things together later this summer and fall. Earlier this week, we had the talk. And he dumped me. He said he was surprised and disappointed that he couldn't get over it. But he couldn't. I am crushed. I had come to believe that no many I ever met would react this way. Does anyone have any words of comfort or wisdom for me?
