If you like him, why do you intend to break up with him? If you worried about herpes, it's no need because herpes is a very common disease in America. About 1 in 6 people are living with herpes.
I have herpes and want to let you know that it isn't as big of a deal as it is made out to be. There is a huge negative stigma surrounding the virus. It is more of a nuisance than anything. I got the herpes virus when I was 19 years old, I am 31 now. I have not had an outbreak in over two years, I recently delivered a happy healthy baby vaginally, and no one I have ever been with has contracted the virus. I met my husband over 2 years ago by a herpes dating site
www.PeopleLivingWithHerpes.com . We happily married and only used protection in the beginning of our relationship. Herpes is a virus that is quite easy to manage. I'm sure you already know this but cold sores are a form of the herpesvirus as well. If you have any other questions I would be happy to answer them. Good luck.
