is herpes a deal breaker for you?
 

i know there's already a sticky on herpes. Recently met some chick i really like, but she has herpes. i am clean. Before any bros go into "does the girl even like you back" etc etc, ans is yes but that's not the point of this discussion. Just assume that the only issue on the table is herpes.

Is herpes a deal breaker? Anyone in this situation before?

Statically, you will bound to get it in your lifetime either from her or from some random encounter. For all you know, maybe you have it too just asymptomatic.

Most people have herpes so it's pretty much unavoidable.

However there's a high chance you'll never experience any symptoms so I wouldn't bother too much if I were you.

usually the herpes will re-appear if the immune system is low. always try to boost your immune system, that's the key.

If the person is worth in your life, go for it.
We are outsiders, we won’t know how this would end..

Finally you have to make a decision.
I think reversely from what I have seen and know,
Girls or ladies , most of them if they really fond or love the person, they have lesser huddle to clear to stay with whom they want.
Not a good answer, just personal experiences and observations.

So how does she know? Where are her outbreaks? And what kind of herpes?

Herpes can be caused by two different types of herpes viruses, and then there's herpes zoster, caused by another common virus.
