Title: cold sores
Post by: маразм1 on June 25, 2009, 08:10:43 PM
Hi all.
I have a problem.  This girl who happens to be an ex-gf of mine is driving me crazy.  She thought she had a cold sore and that I got her infected.  She got tested and is clear.  Now she's telling me that I'm irresponsible and I have this extremely contagious incurable disease that I can spread to everybody I come in contact with.

But the truth of the matter is that yes I have cold sores every once in a while.  It's not an STD -- I've had it since I was I don't know, an infant.  What do you guys think?  I know that more than 70 percent of people have them and nobody makes such a big deal out of it.  Should I be?  Should I now provide a disclaimer before kissing a girl? 

help!

Yes, you possibly should (just joking) but this site will tell you why you will never be free of herpes simplex and possibly why your ex was not infected by you
