I say that we do not lock this thread until we get some clear answers about what is going on. Assman has some explaining to do.
I got Herpes from a BBBJ

Late to the party and what a mess. I can't make heads or tails on the truth here. Either way , stay safe if you can. We all know the risks
Definitely unfortunate that I accidentally outed myself. I set up a new handle only to protect the identity of the service providers I had seen so that people wouldn't unfairly speculate that they were the source of my infection. Now that my cover is blown, I really don't see how any of this impacts my credibility. I posted many fair and honest reviews over the years and contributed to this board. I did have a scare years ago and got tested (including HSV test) and was negative. Whether or not people believe it is really of no concern to me. Looking back, I definitely over reacted back in 2008 as the "rash" I had in one spot was nothing like what I am dealing with now. I should have waited until the tests came back in 2008 before posting anything, but I was freaked out and felt the need to post something and see if anyone had similar experiences. I clarified that it was a false alarm as soon as I got the results back.
Gibbons hit the nail on the head in terms of what happened. I tried to stop after the scare in 2008 and, as others have discovered, it's easier said than done. I agree with Jessica Rain that ignoring the prior scare definitely entitles me to less sympathy, but I was never looking for any in the first place. I started this thread to start a conversation about an issue that all of us are aware of and most of us ignore. I got married young and have been married for 20 years and have never had a civie encounter during that time and I am 100% confident my wife hasn't either, so I think it is safe to assume that I picked this up while hobbying, but I agree that nobody can ever be 100% certain when it comes to herpes.
I assume there are some service providers and clients who remain in the industry after being diagnosed and even more who have it and don't even realize it. While there is no way to know for certain exactly when I got it after the false alarm in 2008, but I am fairly confident that I was totally clean until very recently, so I hope there isn't took much panic when people start looking at the names of the ladies I have reviewed and I actually didn't get around to reviewing the last two I saw. I saw them on consecutive days and noticed the first signs of an outbreak 2 days later.
In terms of my past activity, I like variety so I did jump around a far bit and repeated very rarely, but I'm sure there are others who are way more active in the hobby than I was. The main difference is that I made a point of posting reviews of almost all of my encounters, so it might look like I was more active than most. For what it's worth, I also note that I almost never engaged in FS or DATY and hobbied strictly because I love a good BJ and wasn't getting that at home. You can judge if you want, but I don't think that means I didn't have a good marriage as I was completely satisfied in so many ways. I thought that the limited scope of my hobbying activities reduced my risk of getting most STI's, but clearly herpes is one where we are all at risk no matter how "safe" we try to be.
I will leave it to the mods to decide whether this thread (and my account) should be locked or deleted. I don't plan to use the account anyway since staying off this board will probably make my retirement easier. Everything I have said is 100% true. I enjoyed this hobby and have no interest in causing fear or panic, but I do hope this thread gets people to consider the risks from time to time and get tested.
Many of us has had false scares over the years - I wouldnt worry too much re what other people think about that.
In the end , I still say that this thread is a good occasional reminder that the risks in this hobby are real.
Of course a forum in this business has to downplay that, so Im definitely grateful we have this has a honest reminder.

Who said one was justifying anything.Is that how you justify having sex and spreading the virus after getting it? How come in real life most people don't seem to have it? I don't want no herpes, thanks.
HSV-1, is very different than HSV-2. Most people are dormant and never even know they have it.
All I did was state a statistic.
So what have you accomplished by starting this thread ?
Giving advise that men already know about the hobby
Reveal your personal life to the world to generate sympathy
You got infected but the names of the SPs are confidential. That helps no one here.
How much of what you have written is true and how much is bull shit ??
Credibility is ZERO
You contribute nothing of value to this board, but are quick to jump on others. Revealing names without proof would be unfair and accomplish nothing. The point of the thread was to remind people of the risks so that others may avoid making the same mistake. I'm not telling people not to hobby, but if I had opted for a CBJ instead of a BBBJ there's a decent chance I would not be infected. Bury your head in the sand if you prefer.
So what you are saying is, this virus is so smart that it hides itself somewhere in the body, and when they test your blood, they cannot see that there is a virus. And then somehow someday this virus decides to come out of its hiding? Have you ever thought of the possibility that maybe all those people who supposedly had this virus dormant for years had actually contracted it recently, and then made up this bullshit so that their relatives or friends wouldn't figure out that they were fucking random people recently just like the OP here?
If most people don't ever know that they have this virus, how would anyone know that 90% of people have it? Sounds like somebody made up some bullshit statistics to justify their own herpes again.
You have contributed a lot on this subject but you need to practice what you preach. Wear a bag over your head and I will worry about my head.
Lmao dude it’s okay to be scared when it comes to how common this virus is. When you look up herpes one of the first things you see is how “it’s the most commonly transmitted disease in America” but according to you it “seems like a lot of people don’t have it. As for the rest, i’m Not gonna waist my breath. Do your research.
exactly.
people in the network of those I know who caught the herp had it show up within 2 weeks after sleeping with someone new, then contacted that person right away and it was confirmed it was that recent person who passed it on to them.
While there is a random slight small chance that someone has the virus hiding in their gonads for 2 decades, then have the blisters show up randomly.... but thats just normally not the way it happens with Herpes

Lol are people really this stupid in 2019? And they say humans are the most intelligent species on this planet.....I think you may call that into question. My head hurts reading your replies.
Here's something I didn't know. That's between 1/4 to 1/3 of the population in the US has HSV-2.
HSV-2 infections are less common than HSV-1. However, about 25% – 30% of adults in the United States have an HSV-2 infection. HSV-2 infections are what people are usually thinking about when they talk about genital herpes. It is usually passed between people by sexual contact. However, most people with HSV-2 don’t know they have it either. Some people, however, get genital herpes outbreaks, often several times each year.

Did you contact the spas / agencies of these 2 girls and let them know? Are the 2 girls still on schedule and seeing clients?
Some confusion I think... They are two different diseases, and either one can be in either place.
I notified two agencies and one spa. Neither of the agency girls seems to be on schedule. In fact, one of them was new to the industry and is now off the agency website. The spa girl remains on the schedule, although I actually don't think it was her I got it from. I think I got it from the very last SP I saw. She is not someone who has been reviewed often and I did not get around to posting a review of her. The reason I think it may have been her is that I noticed a weird burning/tingling sensation in my dick on the way home. I figured she used mouthwash or had a mint in her mouth before the BJ, but now that I think about it I wonder whether it was the virus. Not sure it's possible to feel it immediately, but something was different and I had clear symptoms 2 days later.
I think people are concerned because getting HSV-1 on your dick impacts your sex life for ever, unless you're the kind of person who won't bother telling current or future partners. The reality is I can never, in good conscience, ever have unprotected sexual contact again, whether intercourse or even oral. That's a big deal. Would you give someone a BBBJ if you knew they had HSV-1? From what I understand, it can be transmitted through skin to skin contact even when an infected person has no symptoms and also exists in semem.
Thats correct, but once it finds a spot it stays there. So you can get 1 on lips and 2 on genitals, or vice versa, or both on lips, or both on gentals. It's where it enters the body. Did you get a blood test to ascertain which form you got assman?
