Hi Everyone,

      I was just thinking, this website should have a dating/match forum. So many people here are single, educated and understanding......

Awesome, let us know when you post that dating area and i think there will be a lot of people who have an interest, hence i thought it would be a great idea on a site like this....after all, we all wouldnt fear each other or have to explain and educate each other since most people here seem very well educated about hsv :).

I heard of a fb group called Swirls that's for herpes dating but when I look the only groups that show up are bi-racial dating groups. I'm sure it is hard to find the right one I read about because of anonymity but I am wanting to find it with no luck. Please if anyone knows how to find it so I can request to be joined to that group, I'd really appreciate it and I'd share it here so everyone can gave the opportunity to join something like that.

@Retiredarmyguy, you are correct, the main secret HSV social FB group is called Swirls and because it's secret, you can't find it on FB by searching. The only way to get in is to friend someone else that is already a member and have them add you (and message an admin for approval). From the Swirls group there is a FB group files section with literally hundreds of HSV related groups - mostly by geographic area and some by common interests, etc.

I personally have a second FB profile that I use for these groups (although it's not necessary as these groups are secret and your friends can't see - some prefer to keep the friends they make through these groups separate). I can help you or you can search in here on "Facebook" and you'll find others that can help you too. Feel free to message me.

Try www.h-ype.com- Mostly UK members. Less "datey" than others. More a forum and support for many, including myself. Lots of get togethers, camping outings etc.
Like other dating sites you pay for the full monty but there is a free option.

This site should have a dating aspect. There is a site: positivesingles.com. Although I have not had much luck on it, as there isn't a lot of people. Still I think it is the most popular site. 

Though we could start a dating thread. ;)

Good Luck

I joined for a total of two days and in that time I got 100 views, the messages I received all said the same thing. Either so and so wants to see your private album or this person is interested in you , message them. This site comes off as fake to me and is only trying to get you to upgrade to premium membership

Swirls down under is not a dating group it is a support group.  The secret Facebook groups are secret and you can only join by knowing somebody he was a member on there.  And swells down under is for Australia

That is exactly correct but if a guy is really interested they will message you I had plenty messaging me and I did not pay.  Personally I think that a herpes dating site is not going to be any different to a normal dating site it's just an easier way for people not to have to disclose.

I belong to a secret Facebook group and they tried to do a separate dating site but it still resulted in the same thing the young desperate guys would hit on all the women then all the women would start being b***** and talking about the guy and everyone else would know what was going on.

Sadly, I got herpes from a woman on OK Cupid. I wish I never internet dated. People are more prone to lie and be deceitful.  One of my biggest regrets.

Not just an easier way to disclose.. For some dating a person with their type of hsv would just be a more stress-free relationship (no worries about transmission from either party)..

I signed up for a couple of those secret facebook groups. It really looked no different than the group I am on for thyroid patients. Lot of people all asking the same kind of questions I see on here and hoping for answers. The so called dating secret face book groups were all group meet ups. 

what was I expecting? I was expecting a place where grown ups with similar conditions can get together to try to get to know one another, mingle, talk about topics of interest ( outside of the diagnosis) to see if there is any kind of interest or connection

I know what you mean about the thyroid groups, a hundred questions a day but they're all the same question -.-

      By Nameshame · Posted

      @WilsoInAus i requested my partner, but they are refusing from testing and saying they dint had any symptoms. Now the only way i left is to wait untill 12 weeks window period right? I am not getting what to do in this case. Any suggestion for any other tests?

      SUCCESS STORY: Herpes is an opportunity to built trust and connection through vulnerability.

      By CHT · Posted

      Hi "Jeremy"..... I agree, the topic of your HSV status does not need to be something you disclose too soon in a developing relationship..... get to know each other first....see how it's going and as it progresses, then the HSV issue will naturally need to be revealed.... it's my personal opinion though that before there is any sexual encounter you ought to disclose your HSV status.... I know some will disagree with me on this but, I think it is morally wrong not to disclose first.  This can be a make/break situation for most people but, again, I feel it is simply wrong not to give the other person the whole story since your decision not to disclose could put their health at risk.... that is simply not an option in my opinion.  Looking back to my "pre-HSV" life I most certainly would want my partner to disclose their HSV+ status before intimacy so that I could make my decision as to whether I want to take that risk or not....

      By Jeremy Spokein · Posted

      Thanks, CHT. I appreciate the feedback. The whole trauma of going through this has led me to figure out a lot about myself and my attachment wounds, so I'm taking courses to come out of this better. This girl really was my dream woman in so many ways, it's been the hardest heartbreak to deal with ever. I'm truly in a lot of pain, but using the pain as fuel to launch that new business and work with coaches. I also opened up to my family about HSV, so my parents and sister know now, and they were very loving and accepting of it. Since opening up about it, I feel way better around this thing. After opening up, I also found out that some mutual friends in our family have discordant couples who are married with children, so HSV hasn't stopped them from living a loving life. The thing is... all of these couples I mention did not disclose until 6-8 months into the relationship. So now I'm thinking it might be better not to disclose until I know things are very serious. I'll of course stay on the medication and use protection, but maybe this is a better route than disclosing upfront and scaring women off.

      Could this be hsv-2?

      By WilsoInAus · Posted

      Hey @Lcj987 and welcome to the website. You can be sure that isn't HSV-2, looks nothing like it. It is much more likely to be folliculitis or inflamed fordyce spots.
