That is just making a whole lot of sense to me and I'm surprised it never occoured to me before.

edit: I am in no way thinking about having sex with her. i'm just amazed that she said other healthy people have had sex with her knowing she had herpes.
the context
- became close friends with a girl/woman (she's 32).
- she wanted to sleep with me... i said no and told her it was b/c i wasn't mature enough to handle extended casual sex (i'm 26 if it matters...though the reason was that I'm just not attracted to her). she was upset, but we continued to become even better friends.
- during a serious conversation a week ago or she mentioned that she had genital herpes.
- last night she asks me to have sex with her, and i reply, "I... uh... can't really can I (because she has herpes and i don't)"
- she then tells me that it (herpes) hasn't stopped anyone else before... meaning at least three people she's friends with have had sex with her knowing that she has herpes... which just totally blew my mind.
Do people normally knowingly have casual sex with people with herpes? the entire concept just blows my mind. i just spent an hour googling herpes, and it still sounds like a dumb idea to sleep with people who have it.
disclaimer: this is my first new topic and I've probably screwed something up already, but this is the only place i can really talk about this since it involves a friend.

Herpes is only contagious if there is an outbreak at the time. That said use a rubber and you should be safe. I'd probably still shy away unless she was smoking hot though.

yeah, that's basically what my doctors said. "medically, i have to say ___, but yeah you'd be an idiot if you slept with someone with herpes you didn't want to maybe marry."
edit: the more i think about it, the crazier it sounds for her to expect me even to consider having a one night stand with her. darn, i've probably totally lost a friend.
