Genital herpes is one of the most contagious diseases. It is a STD- Sexually Transmitted Disease. Any sexual encounter with an affected person can get you genital herpes. Genital herpes flare-ups are quite painful and this disease takes a big toll on the psychology and affects relationships. Let us find out about how to prevent it.

Genital Herpes- how does it spread?

The herpes virus lies dormant in those who have got it. Suppose you have unprotected sex with somebody who is in dormant state, you may still get it. If you have sex - protected or unprotected with any body that has active sores of genital herpes, you may get it. Sometimes those who have contacted herpes may not be aware of that. That complicates the situation because they will unknowingly pass on the virus to you. Let us find out about what you can do?

Genital Herpes-protect yourself

To protect yourself from genital herpes you should avoid multiple partners. There is no way you can guarantee that one of your many partners is not having genital herpes. Have monogamous relationship. If you have a new partner, try to find out if she/he has had any symptoms of genital herpes. This may sound difficult, but there are no easy options. Use latex condoms. Avoid oral sex because that is always unprotected. Herpes never leaves you once you get it. Please protect yourself. Learn more about - Genital herpes Simplex

What's going on between us?
By: Candyroses | 03-10-2008
I spent the day with my crush a week ago at my house.we kissed, hugged, cuddled. So I told him that I like him and he didn't say it back, he just started putting his arm around me while walking and started acting like my bf. Now,it seems like were growing apart because we haven't talked for a whole week and now I see him walking with girls in the hallway. he barely talks to me now, well on tuesday he told me to call him and when I did, he said to call him back and I did like 2 times and he never answered.But I'm confused, because before we spent the day 2gether, in class, he would always stare at me, let me listen to slow love songs, hug me tight with his face in my neck, he asked me out for lunch a couple of times, gave me his number for me to call him and it was his idea to spend the day with me.so I have 2 questions: do you think he likes me? and now that were not talking, should I call him and ask him what's the deal with him and me or juss not bring it up at all? srry it's long guys.i really need ur help thank-u

Need a relationship counselors help on this one
By: YoungEntrepreneur | 02-10-2008
I was with my girlfriend for 3 & 1/2 yrs and we broke up a month ago. I sent her flowers twice since then and she just told me to stop sending flowers because it was making everything harder for her. She lives in a house with 4 other girls that are all single and they are all in college, and I think she is just trying to be part of the group and trying to experience life being single again. I started dating her when she was a senior in high school, and I was already a junior in college, she lied about her age when I first met her and when we started dating, she finally told me the truth. I was already in love with her at this point and disregarded the advice from my friends and continued the relationship. She is now a junior in college, she went to the same one I did so that we could be together, and when we broke up, she told me she needed her space and that she didn?t know who she was as an individual and needed to know what life was without me, and she also said there were things that she wanted to do at college that she couldn't do while being in a relationship. Pretty harsh since only a month before the break up, we were talking about moving in together the next year. But at the same time we were arguing a lot and actually spent a few days apart not as a couple, especially on her birthday. She told me on her birthday that she cried half way into the night because I wasn?t there, and we got back together for another month. During this month we were growing farther apart, and I felt it more on her end by listening to the constant complaints she had about me because I never complained about her. She was upset that I was not going right into the work force after college and she did not have faith in my plans for starting an online business. We used to have this little anniversary every month to just celebrate the day of the month we got together, but as time went on, we stopped celebrating our anniversaries like we used to. I used to write her alot of poems, almost one every month, but as our relationship went on, the poems slowed to a halt. At this time, I had already graduated school, was living back at home with my parents, and was in the middle of getting a start-up business going. I spent a lot of time on the business and my ex was still living at home because it was summer and she lives close to the school. As the summer was coming to an end, she was also getting ready to move into this house with her friends and I went on a small vacation with my friends, so we weren't spending as much time together. During the vacation she mentioned not being happy and sounded like she wanted to break up, and I was not giving her the attention she deserved while I was away on this trip which made the situation even worse. I was spending tons of time out on the lake and couldn?t bring my phone with me and I simply didn?t care thinking that there is no way she would ever break up with me because of all the things we have said and done for each other. So at the end of the summer when all her friends moved into their new house for the school year, she was definitely trying to break up. I took her out to dinner and I knew then that things weren't right, she had a look on her face like she knew that she was going to break up with me later that night, and she did, but she just said she needed her space and some time, she even mentioned a few months, and then told me she wasn't looking to "hook up" with other guys. The next day, she told me about not wanting to be in a relationship anymore. I tried calling her immediately but she would not pick up her phone and basically only wanted to text me the rest of what she had to say which was how she couldn?t give me what I was looking for. She said she couldn't promise me that she wouldn't try to "hook up" with other guys because she wouldn't know how else she would ever get over me. So I basically broke down at this point and begged for her back in so many ways, which I read later is one of the worst things you can do, I even sent flowers when she replied with one sentence answers of how they are pretty but to not send them. I even wrote her a poem which she didn't respond to at all.. So after sending her flowers the second time and getting a response to not send them anymore, I just replied to her via email, since she wont talk to me on the phone, and said this: this is all very hard for me... its obvious that you don't want me to be a part of your life anymore, I respect you and I'll respect your decision... and then I said goodbye once and for all. She didn't respond to me since then until 5 days ago when she saw me adding some new attractive friends to my facebook, she replied to me in a personal message on facebook saying: ?I like your new wh_re friend... I?m glad to see you are not sad anymore.? I think that was a jealous and spiteful thing to say. I have been reading some books on this topic and it said if you are trying to get your ex back, you have to always enforce positive thoughts to your ex and never negative ones. They also said that using jealousy as a tactic to get back your ex is not suggested because it only pushes them to believe that you are moving on and so should they or that maybe they cannot meet the new standards of your new friends. That is just the background of my story and I have only one question. It's been 5 days since I received the message on facebook from my ex. Some people I have asked, especially women tell me not to reply to that message at all, because she is playing games, and that she can think that she really is losing me now and that she will finally realize what she is losing once she thinks I'm truly gone. My guy friends, some of which have been in this very situation, tell me to reply to the message as soon as possible and lay down some boundaries. They want me to tell her this: Hey ... I'm sorry I haven't responded in a while, I've been really busy lately, I hope you know it wasn't my decision to do this, but I am going out and meeting new people, and hanging out with old friends I haven't seen in years too, just because I am adding new people to my facebook doesn?t mean I am hooking up with them. I would really like to sit down with you and talk about everything and see if we could work things out. Just give me a call. Is that a good enough response? What do you think I should do? Should I not respond? Should I respond with something else? I personally think I need to say something soon or she will really take this as a sign to just move on if I do not reply, and I don?t want that. I really do want her back so I need to know what the best thing to do here is.

Family vs. boyfriend
By: Daphne | 29-09-2008
Not sure where to begin but my family (an aunt, uncle, a few cousins, and closest brother) dislike my boyfriend.  We have been together for 7 months.  The few times me and him have been with the above mentioned family member there was a lot of alcohol involved and my bf got a bit obnoxious.  My brother is my best friend and things got crazy last weekend.  He threw a full can of beer in my boyfriends direction as we were leaving the bar (which we left because my brother's friend told me that he was upset because my bf was there) and nearly hit him in the head.  Now, my brother is not a violent type of person at all and he had been drinking a lot that day, not saying that is an excuse.  That was not the first night that he has told me that I deserve better.  My other family members (that were mentioned) have blantantly told me that they hate him.  I am so very confused right now with what I am feeling.  I feel like I am never going to be able to bring him around my family, which I am very close to my family and it hurts me very much to have this happening.  Its not fair to my bf that this is happening and that I can not square away my feelings.  Prior to this incident I attempted seducing him and he couldn't perform, which put a damper on our sex life, which has upset him but I don't have a great sense of self confidence so I can not go through being rejected again.  I'm numb right now and need some advice from anyone as to what I can do to figure out what I am feeling or how to make this better for everyone if we are to stay together???
