Herpes
So my boyfriend is almost positive he got genital herpes from an ex-girlfriend. However, he hasn't been tested and he hasn't had an outbreak. We've been having sex, intercourse and oral, protected and occasionally unprotected. I'm wondering what my possible chances of catching or having caught herpes are. Thanks in advance.

well you might have a chance of getting them if he has them.. and symptoms may not even show if you have herpes so what you should do is both get tested and always use a condom. good luck!

you should both get tested asap and if you're going to have sex make sure it's protected.

whoa chicana.... get tested ASAP... how could he not have gotten himself tested... how could you have sex with him KNOWING he could and hasnt tested. Honey... go to a clinic.. herpes are not curable. EVER. think about the consequences of your actions a little more closly.

your boyfriend needs to be tested ASAP and if he does have herpes then you have to be tested ASAP too.you have a good chance of getting them from him when ye didnt use a condom.i hope everything turns out ok,xxaoifexxx

Yes, he definitely NEEDS to be tested. And so do you! ASAP!
There is a VERY big chance that you could now have genital herpes. NEVER have sex (any kind of sex) with him unprotected. Herpes is very serious and contagious and it's a lifelong thing...herpes is NOT curable and you definitely don't want to deal with that your whole life.
My sister is 25 and has herpes. She's only slept with 2 guys her whole life, both very serious relationships...and now she has to deal with this infection her whole life with ALL of her future sex partners...having to tell them and deal with the consequences.
Here's a reality check, there is a 50% chance of getting herpes from someone who has it, outbreak or not (it doesn't matter, it's still contagious), when you ARE using a condom. 50%! That's not good, you definitely need to use condoms from now on.
Get tested for sure, and I wish you luck on the results.

If he does have it, you have a high chance of getting it too.
The both of you need to get tested immeadiately.

He has to be tested ASAP! If he does have herpes, you're chance of getting it is very high. Here is a whole website on it-

That should give you most of the information you need. He does not need to have outbreaks to have herpes. There's about 100 commercials about how most of the time, someone's partner can get herpes with no signs of an outbreak. You can't do much about it until he's tested & you both know whats going on. After that, the website shows you the steps you should take and the doctor will give you plenty of details.
-hope that helped!♥
