  1. Im not going threw this type of thing right now but I recently had a HIV test drawn because as I was told that this infection is stronger between 8-10 year xpand rather than the first stages of being exposed to AIDS. Which leads to my original question about Having unprotected sex with a female that has not contracted this STD. I have had sex with my EX-ER faithfully for 10 years before my first outbreak 8 years later and she was never infected. I thought that she had HERPES but controlled her condition. It's been 2years without sex and im concerned about exposing my condom to another female. Will she be protected against my STD?

    I'm not sure I understand your question but people's immune systems act differently. I was with somebody and within 3 weeks, I had caught herpes from him. My roommate was with a guy who had herpes for 3 years, had a baby with him, but never contracted it. It varies from person to person.

    All you can do is try and protect the person... but there is no guarentee that they will or will not get it.

    most likely you can transmit the std by doing unprotected sex.

    OH DUDE really? you should only consider having sex with other people with the same virus. Unless she has all the information and is not concerned about catching anyway. I do not believe that anyone who has read all the information and seen the pictures and understands the reproductive repercussions and difficulties in having children while infected with herpes would follow through with continuing the relationship to a physical level. 75% of all people infected with herpes caught it from a partner who was not showing signs. That is what the studies say but my own experience with some very honest friends tell me that they always feel a tingle as much as 2 months before a sore appears so My guess is that the 75%Er's are deliberately infecting their partners in hopes that they will stay together since they both have it.
    There are tons of support groups and dating sites and organizations to help you find a partner in your same situation. Seriously...look for your dates there

    There is always a risk of passing herpes, even if condoms are used and even if you have sex while there are no signs of an out break. If you have herpes this can make you more likely to contract HIV because you now have sores or blisters down there that HIV can easily travel through.
    I would wait to have sex until you can find out your results for your HIV test before having sex. There are precautions you can take to prevent her from getting herpes, herpes isn't always automatically passed on when you have sex, but there is always a small risk of passing it. Also you should know you still have a small risk of passing herpes even if condoms are used. You should be taking antiviral medication regularly and never have sex if you even think your having an out break, or while there is an out break in progress. This can help prevent passing herpes but it doesn't completely eliminate the risk of spreading it.

    Your walking on thin ice Pal. You'd be safe to use a condom to protect your partner. In most states now, having a std and passing it knowingly is a felony so, there is a two part issue here.

  7. Tony, don't you think you're being a little selfish. Putting someone else in harms way because you want to have sex? Was herpes worth it to you, for just sex? A lifetime affliction, just for one night of sex? No. I'm sure you would take it all back to be disease free..no? Why don't you put off having sex with her, tell her about your virus. Tell her the risk involved and that it's really not that safe. Then if she complies..it's on her and not so much you. You have to stop thinking about sex and start using your brain. Think about how you felt when you contracted it, would you really want someone you care about to feel that way?
    And with your ex lover, why would you assume she had herpes? You need to start working a little harder and be more upfront. Sex is supposed to be a loving and binding experience...and STD'S prove that it should stay that way. Because when it's not, it's just nonsense. You are at risk and you are continuing to put others at risk. You need to re-evaluate your strategy in life, or you will constantly be putting people at risk. Tell her the risks in having sex with you, give her the choice you never had.
