r/hsvpositivity

What’s up y’all. I’m a 26-year-old guy in Houston trying to meet more genuine people and build a real friend group. Most of my time lately has been work, gym, and figuring life out, so I’m trying to get out more instead of staying stuck in the same routine.
A little about me:
Into fitness/weightlifting
Old school hip hop & sports
HVAC background
Down for gym sessions, pickup basketball, car meets, food spots, gaming, UFC fights, or just chilling
Trying to improve myself mentally, physically, and financially
Open to meeting both male and female friends — mainly just good people with positive energy who actually want to hang out and do things around the city.
If anybody’s trying to connect or has recommendations for groups/events/apps in Houston, let me know.

I recently got diagnosed with HSV 2. My first OB is so BAD and considering it's also my first time to have intercourse.. I don't know what to do now. (Got herpes on my first time—how lucky right?)

My ex (the one I had contact with) tried to help me in terms of buying me medicine, vitamins, going to OBGYN checkups, and doing errands for me during my first OB. He was very apologetic the entire time and told me that he didn't know he had it since he's not experiencing any symptoms.

He even went as far as telling me he'll help me if ever I have OBs in the future even if we are not together anymore. He wants to take "responsibility" of what happened, he said.

I don't want to resent him but I've been a mess this month because of it (insomnia, crying, and a lot of thinking on how to navigate this so I don't get OBs in the future, and regrets). I'm actually thinking it's the end for me.

I don't even know if I should accept his help. Any piece of advice?
