Our website has been update http://www.iclicku.com with new features. You can now see who has been looking at your profile. Searches are better and video chat has a new pop up feature. Stop by and make new friends.
The site www.iclicku.com continues to grow everyday and chat is becoming more popular. Several people on the site have started dating Non-H partners. Others on the site are making new friends and forming relationships. A San Diego gathering in June went well and everyone wants to get together again.
The new people recently diagnosed with Herpes or HPV don't think they will ever date again. I wish I could convince them of how untrue that reallyy is. I have dated more with Herpes than without Herpes. Life does move on, it might take time for some, but it really does get better as time goes by. Don't stress the little stuff, take one day at a time, Herpes or HPV does not define who or what you are. You are bigger than H.
Get out and get back your life.
So my out of town friend returned and we continued our " relationship" We shall see, but it shows that the site does work.
Alot of people come on the site who have recently been diagnosed with Herpes or HPV. They have a lot of questions. Everyone handles it differently. One person states she only had one small outbreak but is a "carrier" and has transmitted to her ex, but she told him about it.
Others are in denial about positive swab and/or blood tests. They want the test to be wrong. There are some people who don't date at all in fear of "the telling." What surprises me is that most people say they are open and honest about having HSV or HPV... so why do so many people have it?
Life with herpes moves on...
Unfortunately he lives in Virginia so I am not sure how this is going to end or go, but it proves the site works. Actually we have had numerous members "hooking" up with other members.
Alot of new members come into chat and want to know how to tell someone they have herpes. I always tell them to be factual and provide their partner with information. Do not be dramatic or emotional. Don't expect a certain reaction to your telling them you have herpes or HPV. They may need time to think and research. And even if they can not accept the idea that you have Herpes or HPV... life moves on. Remember you did the right thing. It is not a reflection of who you are. Stand proud, life with herpes continues... you are not alone.

Our site www.iclicku.com has been updated with new features.
So I met someone on my own site. He lives out of state but was in my area for business. To my surprise I really enjoy spending time with him. Unfortunately he had to return home. I didn't hear from him what I wanted or needed that last nite. I wanted him to say how much he would miss me and how much he wanted to stay with me. He didn't . Instead I hear those meaningless empty words... "I appreciate you" and I "want to be friends." I was so upset I walked out on him as he was saying he would continue to date others upon his return home.
I feel empty and sad..
In the meantime, met a H guy at a party, been dating.
Opened the iclicku.com site to both Herpes and HPV. Need to learn more about HPV. They have the same issues with dating. It almost seems as if the entire world will one day be filled with people with Herpes and/or HPV.
So the website www.iclicku.com continues to grow.
It is concerning that some people define their life by having Herpes. If you have herpes that is only a small part of who you really are.
Single people all struggle with dating when having Herpes and HPV. Do we only date other people with herpes?
I am doing both. I have been in and out of a relationship with a man who has Herpes, but the relationship goes no where. My heart lies with a man who does not have H --- and truthfully I have not told him yet.
At iclicku.com I have met some great people and made new friends. Some people are terribly depressed over having herpes and I recently read an article that herpes can be related to depression and anxiety. I surmise the anxiety over having herpes causes the depression.
As you get older herpes because less of an issue for you with perhaps the exception of dating and meeting other people. Don't let Herpes or HPV define who you are. You are bigger than H.

We updated www.iclicku.com It is looking great! More people are coming to chat and look around.
So Friday I meet the non-H man. He is very excited to meet me, but of course he doesn't know about H yet. Will have to see if we click.
As for my site www.iclicku.com update it and it looks great. You can never have too many friends with Herpes. We are a friendly group of people gathered.
In the meantime, the website is growing. Decided to check the landing template. Waiting for it.
www.iclicku.com
So my H friends sends his non H friend an email telling her he has Herpes. He is straight forward and just tells her. According to my friend, she continues to want to correspond and perhaps meet. So she is okay with it. Don't we wish this happened to all of us with herpes?
My life with herpes. I had planned to meet this big time lobbyist, but chickened out at the last moment. I am now talking and have a date to meet a non H guy. He is nice enough on the phone and in email, but we may see. He told me he had a great love that did not work out. I hate when men have had a "great love." I never have.
Life with herpes goes on....

So on the non-H dating site I get contacted by this man who turns out to be a big time lobbyist. Think that will work? I can see it now, hey I have herpes can you lobby some medical treatment this way. Don't think so. Too bad, he sounds like a great guy to know.

Life with Herpes
So I continue to market site, trying to convince my business partner to help. Meeting nice people on the site from all over. The non-H guy I was writing to, suddenly stopped. No reason. Haven't heard if my :"friend" wrote his non-H friend. Learning there are a lot of college students with Herpes. It must be hard for them. There are also a lot of people from Canada on the site. Not sure why.
So I am still in contact by email with a non - H and my friend has not written to his female friend yet to tell her he has Herpes. More people are joining the website www.iclicku.com Marketing is always hard. I made a new video called Super Herpes found on aol, google, and YouTube.
Herpes Dating -- Life With Herpes
Life With Herpes
Last nite I talked to a man who has had herpes for ten years. He has been chatting and talking to a non-H woman for over a year and has now decided to tell her that he has herpes. He decided to write her an email explaining that he likes her and would like to pursue a relationship but that he herpes. I'm not sure an email is the right way to tell this woman, but I helped him draft a letter to her. Let's see what happens. In the mean time, I am in conversation with a man who is also non-H. Let's see where this goes.
Life with herpes continues....

Life With Herpes
Hi!
Welcome to Life With Herpes. I was diagnosed with Herpes when I was in my twenties (over 20 years ago). When I first felt something was wrong, I went to the doctor and was misdiagnosed. They told me I had a yeast infection. A few days later, I realized it was not a yeast infection and went back again. This time it was confirmed that I had Herpes. There was no internet, no immediate access to information. I contacted the man I was dating and learned he had oral herpes. I had no idea that I could contract Herpes in this way. I was consumed with the diagnosed and had many outbreaks my first few years. I believe it was due to my obsession and fear of an outbreak that caused them. Sometimes sweat, tight clothing, and my monthly period would trigger them.
I continued to see the man who gave me herpes until that relationship ended. Then the realization dawned on me that dating might not be such an easy task. Dated here and there, but with no one special. Then one day a friend turned into a romance. I told him I had Herpes and he accepted it. We were together many years --- and yes he contracted Herpes. I don't know if I had an outbreak or not. I honestly can't say. He wasn't upset with me and life went on until we broke up.
Dating is always an issue for the single person with herpes. I willl provide a journey for you and take you on my life with herpes. I am on both a non-herpes dating site and I have created a website iclicku.com www.iclicku.com for other people with herpes who want to network, chat, date, and post their thoughts.
So stay tuned for more Life With Herpes...
