Today, my husband and I were diagnosed with herpes. We've been together for five years and were both virgins before. Even the doctor couldn't give any other explanation. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I found out I have genital herpes. I'm a virgin. FML
Today, I found out I have herpes. I'm 9 months pregnant and have only been with my husband. It just so happens that our roommate just got over herpes. I thought they were just spending time together, bonding. FML
Today, we're in the middle of a contagious deadly pandemic, and despite not having physical/sexual contact with anyone in over a year, I managed to contract herpes. I don't even know how I got it. FML
Today, my boyfriend, who I have been seeing for a year, decided to tell me that he has herpes and has not taken any precautions to stop it from passing on. We have had unprotected sex quite a lot over the last year, so now I most likely have herpes too. FML
Today, I learned I don't have a yeast infection. I have herpes. FML
Today, after receiving a negative herpes test four months ago, my doctor called me and told me it was a false negative and I’ve been living with herpes for four months. I then had to tell everyone I’ve slept with about it, and worst of all my new boyfriend broke up with me. All in one day. FML
Today, I found out my boyfriend gave me a surprise birthday present: herpes. FML
Today, my fiancé is going to Planned Parenthood to see if he got herpes from a prostitute. FML
Today, I went in for a routine check up. I also found out I have an incurable STD and that I’m pregnant. I’ve been married to my husband for 7 years and have never had sex with anyone else in my entire life. FML
Today, one day after our 12-year wedding anniversary, which my husband failed to acknowledge, I found a receipt in his pocket for chlamydia testing. We haven't had sex in two years. FML

ummm #200 and #276 you are both DUMB AS SHIT. type 1 doesn't MAGICALLY turn into type 2 depending on what body part it's on. if you have a cold sore, and you blow a dude, he doesn't now have genital herpes. he has a cold sore on his dick. Totally different situation. TAKE A SEX ED CLASS.

Wrong, I'm an MD and yes, they are different strains, however, the sacral ganglia can become infected with HSV-1, just as the trigeminal ganglia (in the face) can be infected with HSV-2. The other way around is MUCH more common, but it does happen (especially if you combine open cold sore with oral sex). Sorry to burst your bubble.

take a bio class you idiot.....the virus that causes cold sores gives you genital herpes if you have oral sex during the infectious breakout.....it is not cold sores on your dick as you so eloquently put it its genital herpes

cold sores are herpes and transmit down there if you go down with it. surely the doctor would know that?

Children can be born with herpes, passed by the mother during birth.

oral with cold sores and then sex after will definitely cause it too. there was an article in cosmo a few years ago and it seared into my brain because my boyfriend constantly gets cold sores.

I agree. There is the possibility that someone lied or cheated. But it has also been proven that you can get herpes from non sexual activities, such as using a public toilet. Or, one of them may have spread it through oral sex if they were not aware that their cold sores are actually a form of herpes and can be spread that way too. Keep your head up. At least you are married and don't have to worry about spreading it to others. Sorry for your luck.

I'm an MD, and yes, you can can Herpes from cold sores. Cold sores come from HSV-1 most commonly, and genital herpes comes from HSV-2 most commonly. However, they are similar enough viruses that they HSV-2 can infect the oral cavity, and HSV-1 the sacral ganglia in the genitals. Unfortunately, it is more likely that someone cheated, so I would ask to have the HSV typed.

What makes you think it's more likely someone cheated? Granted, if neither had any kind of symptoms for the last 5 years then yes it's unlikely that the virus was dormant for 5 years and it's more likely that one of them cheated in the interim, but we don't know this - it's poss one of them might suffer from cold sores and haven't made the connection? Maybe the doctor (GP?) isn't aware that both strains may be responsible?
