I also stumbled upon this website as I was looking for information on a cure or even a vaccine. I am only 16 years old and im just hoping they come out with one before im in my mid 20s I've been with my boyfreind for 2 years and I sometimes I feel as if no matter what happens in our relationship I will never be able to leave him because I do not want to ever have to tell a partner about this, in my future who will ever love me knowing I have this...I've only had 1 sexual partner and I do beleave my boyfreind did not know he had it. I donot wish this on anyone but it gets me so mad that there are so many other people I kno who have had so many more sexual partners then me, but im the one who gets a desease that will never go away...I can't take it anymore and sometimes I wonder if I would still be with my boyfreind if I didn't have hsv

I also agree that I wish I had it on my lip rather then genital herpes...and the odd part is I have the hsv that is more commonly on the lip rather then in the genital area...if any of us had hsv on our lip then would we never kiss anyone again? Or never share a glass of water with a freind or boyfreind/girlfreind?...I know I would kiss again so why not do the other stuff because of the same desease...why do bad things always happen to good people?=[...please someone help...I beleave everyone should get together and start up 1 large organization in order to help people get tested more regularly and help get money in order to find a cure, instead of complaining and feeling bad for ourselves just as with hiv and brest cancer awareness we need to make our cause just as popular...and since there are so many more of us then hiv or cancer patients our needs should b LOUDER!
