Can Herpes Be Cured? My Ex-boyfriend Gave Me Herpes And Broke Up With Me

Dear Tee, first of all, can herpes be cured? I feel like this new situationship infected me with Herpes after having sex. I met this guy in November and we had been talking for about a month.  We did kiss and have sex fast and after a week things were normal between us.

We had a real date planned for later but something came up and we couldn’t go again. But something felt off about that day. For starters, I started experiencing some Herpes symptoms. It started with a rash on my lips and I felt extremely dry all of a sudden.

I dismissed it but after I read about Herpes symptoms, I noticed that the symptoms had progressed into a burning itchy sensation. I knew immediately something wasn’t right.  Can Herpes can be cured? And can it kill? I am asking because I am worried and sad.

I didn’t go to the hospital to get an official diagnosis earlier because I was heartbroken. He called later and said he wanted to talk about something serious between us then proceeded to break up with me.  He said I’m great and intuitive and I’m beautiful but he isn’t ready for a long-term relationship.

I never said I wanted a long-term relationship since he’s going to college anyway and I didn’t think it would last longer than that. But he cut things off with me and stopped talking to me almost instantly everything stopped. The next day after the breakup, the herpes symptoms increased and I started to feel sick body aches etc.

Now, I have gotten tested for herpes. And the result came back that I had it in my body in low numbers. But my body had built an immune to it. So immediately I knew what I thought had been confirmed. I feel so terrible because first you break up with me then I find out you’ve infected me with herpes. My whole thing is he rushed everything and forced me into a relationship.

I am sad because the doctor said the Herpes will keep reappearing. I don’t know what to do. Have you had any case with Herpes? Can Herpes be cured completely? Tell us what you think in the comments section.
