Herpes In Remission I got herpes by having sex with my ex wife after we had split up. It might seem crazy to keep having sex with her after we had split up, but that's what we did. She was my second wife. We were married almost 4 years, and our sex life was great. After we split up, neither of us had another partner, and we stayed in touch because we had some rental property together. One time after some wine, we had sex, and after that we decided that we could just be "sex buddies" and still be separated. I never went with anyone else, but it is obvious that she did, and that is how I got herpes. I got angry and I was really bummed out and hostile towards her. Our rental business really suffered, and I made some poor decisions which cost me a lot of money. I started seeing a therapist who was also a relationship counselor. And I read books on relationships, as I wanted to learn more, because I wanted to learn how to make a relationship work and not have the same thing happen again. From one book, I learned that good sex can prolong a poor relationship three to four years. When I think back, it is very obvious that that's what happened in our case. I think that if we had just dated for a while without going to bed, things would have been different. If we had dated maybe six or eight times, one or both of us might have seen that there was no real basis for a relationship there, and that would have been the end of it. That's hindsight now of course. I learned about relationships, but I still had herpes. I started learning about herpes from the internet, and found there was no cure. But, I also found that there are many people with herpes who do not have outbreaks, and I wanted to become one of them. I learned that it all revolved around having a strong immune system. When we have a strong immune system, the herpes virus stays in remission. When it is in remission, we do not have herpes outbreaks. This is something similar... most of us had chicken pox and the measles when we were kids. The virus is still in us as adults. But it does not surface anymore, because our bodies have build up anti bodies to the viruses, and so the viruses just stay below the surface and do not bother us anymore. Our immune system is strong enough to keep it in remission. I found a product for herpes that does that. I tried it, and it really works. I haven't had a herpes outbreak since I started using it. I recommend Herpes gone to anyone who is having herpes outbreaks. I now have a much better life, and I am starting to feel happy again at last. |
