IM POSITIVE FOR HSV 1 AND 2

DOES THAT MEAN MY CURRENT BOYFRIEND OF 3 YEARS HAS HERPES ALSO?
I CAUGHT HIM WITH A GIRL IN OCTOBER AND THATS WHY I GOT TESTED FOR STD'S, MY HIV TEST HAD TO BE REDONE, IT WILL BE READY IN A WEEK.

NOW HE SAID SHE DIED, RECENTLY?  I DON'T KNOW WHAT OF, SHE WAS A KOREAN GIRL, THAT HE DATED FOR 2 MONTHS WHILE WE BROKE UP.
SHOULD I TELL HIM TO GET TESTED NOW?

Your bf will need to be tested to see what his own status is. You can't assume anything based on your own test results.

Yes he should get tested for a barage of STDs.. but i heard there is only a few tests that are reliable for diagnosing herpes. Good luck with HIV test. As for the girl dying.. dont know what to say bout that .. maybe he is a BS-er maybe not. If you are dating now he should be open to answering any questions you have. Good luck and be precautious because you dont know what something extra someone is bringing into the relationship. BTW if you have hsv 1 and 2.. and you haven't been with anyone since this guy it is a higher probability that he has both but can't say for sure.
