Well I can answer that one. If there are
any leisons, visable- and open- then do
*NOT* have sex!! All it takes is
skin-to-skin contact while the infected
person is having an outbreak you will get
it. The skin "down there" is much more
sensitive and will soak it up like a
sponge.
If the infected person does .N.O.T. have
any leisons, then proceed with a condom.
I would ask, if the partner is on any
meds.. some people take daily supplements,
or prescriptions. Some only do during
breakouts. But be cautious.. even though
there are not any leisons..the infected
person is still shedding dead cells
invisiable to the naked eye. Educate
yourself first, and as long as you
protect yourself and the infected person
does in a healthy way- you can still enjoy
each other.
Be sure the person is healthy, educated
and aware. If they don't give you much to
go on...slam the breaks on that sh*t! If
the infected partner is... listen. Then
do some research yourself. People that
have herpes and maintain healthy
lifestyle.. is a good thing. And those
types of people that have herpes and
control it...and not let it control
them...and is healthy..that takes care of
themselves..give them a chance. Ask how
it happened. Ask ask ask.
Good luck Just because people
have it..doesn't make them untouchable. I
should know. I have it. I do not let it
define me as a person...I cannot stress
that enough.
