Funny, I was actually thinking about this exact thing over the weekend, but more specifically about AIDS. I get myself tested every six months, and recently started a new relationship. I want to get my girlfriend to get herself tested. I'm wondering how she'll take my request, and then I'm also wondernig what will happen should her test come back positive.
I wouldn't end it on the spot. I think I'll educate myself first, and then also gauge her own "development". Her demeanor is bound to change, and I would just play it from there.
In general, though, what would you do if you found out your partner has Herpes specifically. Apprently 1 in 8 americans have it, and since HSV-1 especially is so common and incurable, what would you do? It can be kept under control, and it essentially nothing more than a nuisance. Would you kick your SO to the kerb?
