Hello,
I got diagnosed with genital HSV-1 over 10 months ago. That OB has been the only one I had since well... I gave it to myself!
Of course, at first I was crying my eyes out and all that fun stuff... But my mom put some sense into me and now I'm ok with it.
I haven't been sexually active since then up until now... Where I made a big mistake... I went out with a guy I've known for a few months, had a couple of drinks and... you know what happened next. That happened around 1 week ago and we hung out lots just me and him since then. I feel terrible for sleeping with him and not telling him, I really like him but I'm so scared of his reaction when I tell him, and I'm not sure when to tell him since we've only been hanging out for a week and I'm leaving for school next week!
The thing is, I went for a brazilian wax yesterday... The wax was super hot. But today I noticed a little sore red spot in the genital area and I'm afraid that it may be an OB. Either that or just a burn from the wax. I'm just... freaking out because I don't know how to tell him that! I know I need to tell him ASAP.....
Thanks.
