Should i tell my male friend i have herpes if i do not plan on having a sexual relationship?!
Question: Should i tell my male friend i have herpes if i do not plan on having a sexual relationship.?
Im not ready for a relationship right now. I just had a baby two months ago and had a very rocky relationship with the father that ended about a month ago. So im focusing on my children and work right now. Im not at all ready for a romantic relationship with a man or in the near future. Its going to take me a long time. Anyhow, i have been friends with my ex fiancee for the past 1.5 years. 12 years ago we were engaged to marry but it didnt work out. After ten years, he got divorced and called me out of the blue and apologized for what happened to "us" years ago. I was shocked and also forgiving. We were both alot younger and immature. We talk to each other maybe once or twice a week as friends. Our relationship is strictly plutonic. We also go out once in awhile for lunch or dinner, etc. I have no sexual feelings for him at all or any attraction at this time. He makes comments to me all the time like, "you are beautiful" or "dont feel bad about yourself" or "you need to get out sometimes and have fun".

Of course you should tell him!Health Question & Answer
If you dont plan on having a sexual relationship there should be no reason to tell him, unless you want too. Herpes isnt that uncommon and with proper steps and medication you can easily prevent spreading it to someone, im sure you know this and if he is an adult and you do find yourself on a more intimate level with him, telling him this shouldnt interfere with his felings about you.Health Question & Answer
