dude... for all you guys trying to say it's no big deal... 1/4?? wtf did you get this stat? It's more like 9/10 HAVE HAD some form of herpes. This includes shingles, chx pox, smallpox, cold sores, etc. BUT remember, 1/4 do NOT have genital herpes. It is serious.. one of the only 4 viral std's. Right now it's time to decide. Can you see yourself being with this girl for the rest of your life? If so, go for it; if not, it's not worth jeopardizing the rest of your dating future for her. Remember, you CAN still spread herpes even when there is not a breakout. Obviously chances are slimmer but it can happen. Take a BIG step back to think about this one before you continue. Don't be a fool, wrap your tool.
