Note - idk if I miscommunicated or a few misunderstood. Mentioning the cold sore and explaining isn’t the issue, that’s fair and responsible. That being said, I don’t think mentioning it multiple times is necessary. The real point though is if you like someone and the connection is there, a cold sore likely wouldn’t stand in the way of the relationship.

@@1a2b3c4d2847 curious because cold sores are typically herpes simplex 1. The most common and benign form of herpes. 50-80% of Americans have it. Not to mention " At least 70% of the population shed HSV-1 asymptomatically at least once a month" (national library of medicine, Craig S Miller et al.) Since I can't link things there's that. I can bet you money you've been with someone with herpes and didn't realize. Now if we're talking about genital herpes I'll give you that. But simple cold sores of the mouth don't impact meaningful relationships. It's about management and know when to avoid oral contact with your partner. Avoid oral sex when someone has HSV-1 that can actually cause genital herpes. But it'll still be HSV-1 instead of 2. Which is the more malignant of the two.

Question if you do not mind. Not meaning to pry. One of my closest friends in on the autistic spectrum, and he has no experience in the dating world, but wants to. Right now he's hitting a few road blocks, the first is that he (in my own opinion) is too harsh on himself. He does not feel that he looks like a catch to a partner(he's bi which is why I did not specify a gender). He says that he wants to lose more weight in particular. He says he can not even try to ask anyone out before he does that. He is SOOO lonely, and we talk about this topic often, but he just will not budge. When we first met he was on at least two dating websites with no success, so he quit those. I have tried to tell him that he looks so much better than MANY of the men out there, and that a potential partner would not have issue. ANYWAY.... You said "it's hard enough" when referencing dating. Does that mean that you have had any success at all? And if so, what guidance can I perhaps offer my friend?

This woman wasn't communicating at all and I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have guessed what she wanted if I was in his place. I do pretty much all when it comes to planing dates or cleaning the house in my relationship, but I'm only able to do that if I know what my girlfriend wants from me or what she likes, because people can't read minds. It's insane to expect someone, regardless of their gender, to be able to automatically know what you want. And considering they don't know each other that well, it's also insane to expect him to automatically know what she likes. He responded to her texts and she didn't continue to talk. And I pretty much feel this dude. Because imagine you meet an amazing woman, you like her and you don't want to f up. I would act the same: keep it light hearted, be nice, give her the space to put into the conversation what she wants to do or say... he seems more like he's actually pretty respectful. And yes it's sometimes frustrating when you give a date/partner clues and they don't pick up on what you want (my gf has autism, so she is really bad at this) but most of the time this could be solved with open conversations, what she obviously did not do or even intend. I think it's a pretty complicated topic psychologically speaking, that's why I wanted to reply, I just think that sometimes the situation is more difficult than "the man is bad, it's his fault"...

Doctor chiming in here: I think it's pretty likely that she explained what a cold sore was poorly (though I definitely think that he found other red flags with her and was just giving a simple explanation). Cold sores are pretty common, and in some populations being infected by HSV1 or HSV2 has a prevalence of 75+% (I have seen some studies say 90%), but that's just viral infection, not developing cold sores, since not everyone infected with HSV1 or HSV2 gets episodic outbreaks rather oral or genital. Cold sores can transmit herpes to the genitals via oral sex causing genital herpes, including when they're developing ... so yes, a guy not being keen on continuing a date where sexual activity was a possibility (because I kinda think on the 15 hour dates, they were probably having sex and sleeping over). A cold sore can lead to genital herpes, and genital herpes can cause cold sores (and other sores like in the throat and even in the esophagus, though that's usually in immunocompromised individuals). Herpes infection is common, yes, and it should be less stigmatized , but it can cause health problems, discomfort, and in the case of someone who wants to get pregnant or get someone pregnant neonatal herpes is serious. A person who doesn't want to risk that should not be shamed like she is doing here. It's not just one flaw... it's a virus that can cause a lot of harm in certain populations, so choosing to not date someone who has it is valid. Odds are, the guy has been infected with at least one strain of herpes, but since it's rarely tested for (doctors are discouraged to test for it for a lot of reasons) as far as he knows, he doesn't have it, and protecting himself, his future partners, and future children is something that is a fair decision.

Either way, people freaking out about cold sores are probably already carrying the virus. They are just in the majority of people that do not get cold sores.

I’m about to be 30 and single. Dating has drastically changed since I was 19. I had the same mind frame where I thought I could check on someone after a date and made sure they got home, or not think so much into men’s responses. An now unfortunately I kinda get where the lady is coming from only because talking to men on these apps is genuinely exhausting and so when they’re showing my interpretation or boredom I tend to get defensive like her. So to some degree I get where this lady is coming from. A key word is some. lol because even I’m hearing her and I’m like eek. An I am being that millennial, but technology has really warped the dating world in such a negative way it made me delete all the apps and just enjoy being single due to the mass of people looking for entertainment and not a partner. But it seems like technology has us so hyper protective of ourselves at times to the point where we aren’t seeing how that has become negative to us in the long run. So dating apps is twice the anxiety for all genders, however we’re still human and deserve to give others the same grace we get. So I hope she learns that humans tend to human and eases her anxiety more.

Men on dating apps are only looking for hook-ups. They will play the game and pretend to be seeking a relationship but they have a hidden agenda. Also women should never check if a man got home safely or he will see you as desperate. Always let the men take the lead and let him contact you first. Men are hunter's and they will go after the women they want and nothing in the world will stop them. Don't take advice from women who only dated their husband and don't understand what it's like to date men. Unfortunately the quality of modern men is bad. You will probably date 200 guys who just want smex until you meet a man who actually wants a relationship. I have taken myself off the dating market because it's dangerous. I can tell you many horror stories about men I dated from dating apps to my job to meeting them at their jobs. Being single is not that bad, I don't have to worry about getting cheated on or diseases because I am celibate. I'm happy that I have peace in my life ❤

As a germaphobe about contagious skin issues and being someone who has (luckily) never had a cold sore (that I know of), yes, cold sores would be a deal-breaker for me. Those are permanent once transmitted, and I would greatly appreciate it if someone brought it up to me from the start. The way people like her and so many other people I know that have cold sores are so nonchalant about it like its just a zit or non-viral blemish irritates the hell outta me. Sure, its not as bad as an STD, but do i wanna catch it just because 90% of the rest of the world has it? Hell to the fuck no. I myself am a MRSA carrier and have frequent staph/boil flare-ups. Almost everyone has/carries staph, but I'd still warn them about it from day 1 out of courtesy. I dunno. Maybe I'm just weird like that.

Wow I figured that the break outs were a flare up or that I am just more likely to get infected again since I've had it before (staph&MRSA) cuz I get them Randomly & they hurt way worse than a simple breakout. They always burn extra & stinging. Just like the cold sores on your lip(I've had maybe 3x in my life) a few years ago I had a tube of ointment prescribed that was specifically for staph/MRSA. it worked better than anything & cleared up the spots in maybe 2 days vs 2 weeks. That's really good to know & I need to talk to my dermatologist about that. Thank you ❤ I hate hate Hate how stigmatized it is.

@marzgirl99 I understand. It's definitely not life ending lol I find most people actually don't care as long as you're upfront. They may have questions, but that's just the time to educate them on how genital herpes works. I feel like people believe it's a constant thing that needs to be dealt with when most people who have it only experience 1 break out then never again OR only experience a break out every few years. The longer you've had it, the less frequent your break outs become (barring the circumstances where you need medication). In all my research, it is incredibly unlikely you'd catch herpes if there is no active break out. And I've had cold sores in the past, I think 2 times in my life. I haven't had one in over a decade at this point.

And then the other person could say whatever. BUT at the same time, as you said: communication. Lmao! It's insane how these grown ass people won't just... Say what they want. Like.

The only thing this guy did wrong is to suggest 2pm as a time for brunch. What is brunch? It's Breakfast-Lunch. When does Brunch occur? Between breakfast time and lunch time. 2pm is late lunch bordering on afternoon tea. Even she's saying 12-1 which is just straight up lunch. What's wrong with these people? Edit to add: I do feel bad for her about the cold sore. Are we still being silly about cold sores? It's very common and literally not a problem. It can be genetic, or passed on during birth. She probably just mentioned it because it's just uncomfortable and she was likely warning him that kissing was off the table for the date.
