In preparation of my first party, I purchased this “HERPES WARRIOR” bracelet. It has since become a staple in my wardrobe. I wear it not only for myself, but for the hope that a newly diagnosed individual may see it and realize that they are not alone. #breakthestigma #knowyourstatus and know that #youareloved and #youarenotalone #bodypositive #sexpositive #herpes #herpespositive #maybeitsmelanin #melaninpoppin #thickthighssavelives #bodyunderconstruction #ootd #camo #pencilskirt. & #sandals @shoedazzle https://www.instagram.com/p/B1b1U-UlbqY/?igshid=1478quj31cds5

Here to find positive friends! (and by that I mean, those also sharing the great gift of herpes positive 👌🏻).

Newly diagnosed (like a month?), and wanted to reach out to a safe community that’s not full of creepy dudes .... it’s worse than tinder out there ladies isn’t it?!

So um hi. :3

I’m just looking for some good chats and information about I guess what to expect for forever ...?

First tumblr too... so I don’t know what I’m doing just roll with it!!

Thank you and peace out 🤷🏻‍♀️

man it’s so interesting to think, like

my blood is different now than a few months ago before my contraction.

when I die and my body is shown at the funeral, people will be looking at me and I’ll be laying there not alone, but buried with the virus that is as sure in my body as my bones and skin

my spit is weaponized, my blood is weaponized

this virus will be with me longer than any partner, any friend, and in thinking of it like that, i’ve learned to love it as part of me.

and that being said, hsv is the chillest life partner; mostly resting in my spinal ganglia; hasn’t bothered me a bit, it’s just along for the ride, another being in my body, as constant as my shadow.
