a long comment, so grab a seat. My husband was a ho before we met. He slept with DOZENS of women, unprotected. He didn't even KNOW he had it until I got it AFTER we got married. I'd been tested for every STI there is so I knew I was squeaky clean. I was some kind of pissed when I got SORES on my labia. Every month, too. Hormones affect it BIG time and I suffer for his fucking around. He'd never had symptoms that he noticed. After 8 year together, it still infurtiates me. It causes me pain, emotionally and physically. If I had known, I would NOT have slept with him. That choice should have been MINE to make. I would NOT forgive you. No way. Not being brutal, but I live it. Every month... You were VERY selfish. What if you slept with some guy who hid his HIV status from you? You won't die from herpes, but you get what I'm saying. If you're going to have sex, you know you have to take RESPONSIBILITY.

I had the problem in reverse with a woman who was supposedly nuts about me, and didn't tell me about her Herpes until we had had sex numerous times. I tested negative, but there's always that little "twinge" that I get when I think about her, about what might have happened. So, yes, you can be forgiven, but there'll probably always be a little something in his mind that gives him a momentary scare...
