Why is it so hard for me to believe that my boyfriend excepts the fact that i have herpes?
You broke up with your boyfriend to go back to your ex who infected you with a std. It’s hard to believe that your ex didn’t know he was infected and he either didn’t bother to tell you, or he just plain out didn’t care. Got to wonder what the story is there.

Be really thankful you have a man who isn’t hung up on things like that and obviously cares about you. And plenty of people in their right mind have unprotected sex with people w
