Alright, long story so please stick with me here. First off, I don't have herpes, I get regular check ups and am clean. My dilemna is that there is a girl at my work that I have always flirted with and had your basic middle school crush on, we get along really well and consider her a close friend. Never even thought about asking her out because she is incredibly pretty, like way out of my league pretty. She's really smart to boot as well, going to school for accounting and pulls a high GPA. Well, today she asked me to go out to lunch, which isn't uncommon, but when we went to lunch she told me that she has so feelings for me and wishes to pursue a relationship. I was shocked pretty good because I never saw this coming and at the sametime really would like to as well. Yet, my problem here is, she also said she wanted to be upfront about somethings first, and that is when she told me she has herpes. She asked me how I felt about it and if I would still like to go out with her. I said I really didn't know a whole lot about it and wanted to get more informed before I decided. She was cool with that, told me a few places online that I could look it up, and would be waiting for my answer.
So, I have checked it out, as long as you take all the proper precautions, the risk is significantly reduced (it is still there), and isn't entirely as bad as popular myth makes it out to be. Has anyone been in a this kind of situation or possibly been on the other side? What would you do in my situation?
