I was diagnosed with gential herpes back in August. I was not sexually active previous to this, as I have been with one women. My partner believes that she gave it to me, and did not even realize she had it. Since the first out break I had a second, and now I believe a third. This is really getting to me. I feel like my life is over, I don't feel like a good person anymore. I look at myself before this and I just remember not having this in the back of my mind. I'm just really down. I try not to tell my wife how I'm feeling about this, because she feels bad already, and I'm not trying to make her feel bad.
Sometimes I don't feel like a normal person. My wife and I want to have a baby, and now I'm so afraid because I don't want to hurt my child, and sometimes I wonder is it even possible for me to have children. I just feel like the only person going through this, and I'm really not happy with myself. I miss living life without this in the back of my mind. Along with that my wife is going through things, and questioning our marriage, which makes things worse. And now if my marriage doesn't work, I walk away hurt, and left with herpes, wondering would anybody love me, and want to be with me, would I be alone for the rest of my life if my marriage fails?. I just feel disgusting, any advice is appreciated.
