So my partner(f) has genital herpes. I really care about her and we've had protected sex in the past, I've gotten tested since and im negative. I would like to stay that way of course but now I'm off put by sex with her since I had a pimple that I thought was a herpes sore pop up(this prompted the testing).
She has had other people not as concerned with it who wore condoms as well. She is not on a retroviral or anything of that nature. I am just not clear on transmission rates, I found a couple figures here and there online but I can't really understand it on a practical level.
I dont know if she's who I want to be with forever so it's making this more confusing. Do you have any advice? I just feel like it's selfish of me to not have sex but im also just concerned and I don't know what to do. And if it matters she performs oral on me and I can finger her which gets us both off but I miss having vaginal intercourse. Thanks Doc, I really appreciate your advice and opinions here
