What can i do if my girlfriend has hsv-1 oral herpes, should i end it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Do you love her?: Somewhere between 80 and 90% of americans have the oral herpes virus. The reason to end your relationship should depend upon the feeling you have for this person and not the herpes status. Listen to your heart. Good luck.
