I am in my 40's, divorced twice. The guy who I have been seeing for the last 2 months told me he found out he has herpes right about the time he met me. We haven't been intimate yet, but I really like him a lot and want to take it to the next level. Does anyone have any advice on what I should do? Should I walk really fast or run in the opposite direction? Is it worth the risk to give the relationship a chance? Did I mention that I like him a lot...

Yeah I think it is wonderful that you have risen above the occassion with two divorces that is really hard. Good for you. As far as your new man you really like and is it true love do you think this time? I say go for the GUSTO just always and forever PROTECT PROTECT PROTECT.....before you become intimate with him be sure that he truely is the one. I have a friend who meet a man who knew he had herpies and didn't tell her and she found out at the birth of their 1st child it was a terrible experience for her. At least he is for real with you. May you have LOVE, PEACE and HAPPINESS in your new life to come.

Give him credit for being upfront about his condition. Says something about his character.

Best thing for you to do is learn as much as you can about the STD. Might even consider speaking with a doctor. You need to know the risks and best ways to prevent transfer of the STD. At the end of the day you need to make your own decision what to do.
