HI

I just found this group.  Am Looking forward to hearing from all of
you.  I read where you are bowling, have a great time.  I uploaded a
couple of pics.  Think I go read old messages and get a feel of the
group.

The Orlando H2O group requests the honor of your presence!

We're going BOWLING and then having a PARTY afterwards!

Time:  	 Saturday  August 11    7:30 pm

Place:  	 WINTER PARK BOWL  (Bowl America)
           		 1111 W. Fairbanks Ave
           		 Winter Park, FL

Cost:  	 $4.55 per game
About Us:    We'll meet around 7:30 in the food service area
inside.  Look for the RED ballon.  We will begin bowling at 8 pm.

Location :  Winter Park Bowl (Bowl America)  is located at 1111
W. Fairbanks Avenue
                (near the intersection of Fairbanks and Highway 17-92)

From I-4, exit onto Fairbanks Avenue (Hwy 426) and go east towards
Winter Park. Travel about 1 mile on Fairbanks. Immediately after
crossing Highway 17-92, Winter Park Bowl is on the left side.

From 436, take Aloma and pass through downtown Winter Park. Stay in
right lane, and the street becomes Fairbanks Avenue. Look for Winter
Park Bowl on the right, just before reaching Hwy 17-92 intersection .

Particulars: Most people play 2 games, so your cost should be about
$10. Shoe rental is free for groups with 12 or more people (otherwise
it's $3.20).  So we need to get an estimate of the number of people
coming. Please RSVP, by email (Orlandoh2o@...)!!!!  Even if you
don't want to bowl, you can have fun being a cheerleader.
Food and drink is available at the bowling alley.

After bowling.....we will go to FIDDLER'S GREEN PUB just down the
street from the bowling alley

Fiddler's Green (544 west Fairbanks) is a very cool antique style
IRISH PUB with Live Music. They have a whole room filled with dart
boards. Great food also. View the link to Fiddlers green,,,
http://www.fiddlersgreenorlando.com/home.htm

It will be a lot of fun!  Hope you can make it.  Please reply (via
email) and let us know that you are coming!

Email address is Orlandoh2o@...

Hope to see you there!

Tonya

If you are new to the group and have never been to a social but would
like to attend, come on down!!  If you're a bit nervous, that's
okay!  Let us know and we'll meet you there a little earlier in order
to make you more comfortable.  We really are cool people…and we don't
bite!!

Doug,

   Good luck on your search and it's nice to read that you don't seem to be
limiting your search to just the H community.  Before I met my husband I didn't
limit myself, however I did meet my husband on an H dating site called
positivesingles.com.  It's true you just never know where you will find love!

   Good luck and keep us posted!

           Hello,

I am new to this forum. I recently joined Antopia where I was
contacted by a Tampa Bay H club member who told me about this forum.

I have Herpes HSV2. I found I had herpes about a year into dating my
ex-wife; 1984. I don't know if I contracted it from a previous
encounter and passed it to her of she to me.

I have been separated since 2003 and divorced last year. I started
dating last year and have been dating via commercial internet dating
sites. I have had one intimate relationship after I told her I had
herpes.

I know that if I want a companion, I have to date and disclose until
I find the right person. There is no other option than being alone.

The largest hurdle that I see other people dealing with is disclosure
and rejection. My feeling is that 1/3 of the population has herpes.
If my chances of finding a companion are cut to 1/3, then I just have
to meet more people. Rejection hurts but it's unavoidable so I accept
it as one of the hazards of dating.

By joining this forum and others, I know I will increase the chances
of finding a companion sooner.

I am a white male, 47 years old, 6'3", 205lbs. The intention I have
set is finding a loving girlfriend who I find very attractive, who
shares some of my interests and spiritual intentions and who likes to
travel.

Feel free to ask me about my experiences dealing with herpes, dating,
intentions and anything else.

Doug

I'll have to think about it and maybe give it some time to see where
it goes.

I just hope anyone out there who is afraid of telling someone will
ask for help. It really is the right thing to do....

Hey "S"...
     Yippppppppppppppppeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!! Another  successful
story of acceptance in mainstream america :)
     Would you be interested in submitting your "how you  got it" initial
story including your follow up story of meeting someone,  having to tell, when,
and your acceptance to our Happenings International  newsletter.
     I think sharing your story with 1000+ plus  readers nationwide may be
motivating to others if they are feeling down and  out,,,
     Looking forward to your reply,,,,and keep me posted  on this relationship
and where it goes,,,
     Have a great weekend!!!

Hey Scott! Thanks for the encouragement. He called today and asked
if  he could stop by after work so I thought it might be a good time.
It was  excruciating, but I told him. He actually felt bad that I'd
been worrying  about it all this time! He said he doesn't want to
lose me and will deal  with it. I think he will have a lot of
questions but it seems like it  won't be a big deal. Of course he
could change his mind tomorrow, but  that's the way it goes.

I'm glad I told him before things got too far  (they have already
been getting pretty heated :) and I'm glad it's out.  Thanks again
for the help. I think I need a stiff drink, LOL! Hope all is  well
with you,

[Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

Hey Scott! Thanks for the encouragement. He called today and asked
if he could stop by after work so I thought it might be a good time.
It was excruciating, but I told him. He actually felt bad that I'd
been worrying about it all this time! He said he doesn't want to
lose me and will deal with it. I think he will have a lot of
questions but it seems like it won't be a big deal. Of course he
could change his mind tomorrow, but that's the way it goes.

I'm glad I told him before things got too far (they have already
been getting pretty heated :) and I'm glad it's out. Thanks again
for the help. I think I need a stiff drink, LOL! Hope all is well
with you,

S

Hey S:
     You should have told him when he was tipsy,,, he  might have been more
opened to it then, or,,, not remember the next day  :)....
     Now you are going to agonize about it, and that's  not healthy either,,,
     I know it may sound like a chickens way out, but an  e-mail to him,
spilling your guts as to why you didn't do it face to face cause  you are
scared,
embarrassed, etc. and couldn't find the right moment.
     We are all in a special predicament and too have to  protect our
feelings,,,,I'm a cancer, so we go into our shell for protection,  lol,,,, at
least if
you e-mail the info....it will finally be out of the closet  and sooner than
later...
     If you are not close to sexual  contact, wait,,, definitely according to
the editorial,,, its a catch  22,,,,if you tell them too soon, then they don't
know all your other great  qualities and add them to the equation, and if you
tell them too late, they can  say "why did u wait so long and let me grow to
have feelings for you"....so,  don't aggravate yourself about it,,,, u feel
you want to tell him, so tell him,  any way you can,,,
     In my 3 experiences with women that didn't have it,  that I told,,,they
all accepted me,,,,:) however, if you ask me  intellectually,,,"would I go out,
or date someone that has H" i'd probably say  "No, I wouldn't" then again,
when one is in love,,,?!?!?! You don't die from  H,,,,it's mostly an
inconvenience....
     Keep me posted,,,
     Supportively Yours,
:) Scott

Well I guess you could say that I chickened out...I don't know. We
went out and everywhere was too public and crowded. Then we went back
to his place for a bit, but we were tired and a little tipsy by then
and he was being all romantic, so it just didn't seem like the right
time.

So now I don't know what to do and I will be agonizing over it all
weekend probably....I wish I could just tell him over the phone but I
don't think that would be right....

Hey! We met at church and he is a good guy. He's had his wild days
and stuff too, so it's not like he holds things against people. I
don't really want to sabatoge things, it would just be easier in a
way I guess. He is really into this relationship and if he can't
handle being with me because of that, I know he will be very sad. I
don't want to hurt him....but that's why I have to tell him before
anything intimate happens. I don't think he would tell anyone else
out of anger. Just no telling how he will take it.

Hey,,,
     WE ALL know how you feel,,,,
     But, if you are willing to sabotage the  relationship, you might as well
take a chance and tell him/her....
If they stick around, "great",,,, if they leave,,, you aren't any worse off
than just sabotaging it as u had planned...
     Another obvious,,,,you know the person at this  point, and know how they
feel towards you (hopefully)...so, if you feel they are  immature and may use
this information against you, they you may be better off  blowing them
off,,,then again,,,if you feel they are sincere,,, even in  rejection, they
should
minimally become a friend and confidant,,,,
     Let me know what happens,,, I'd like to follow up  your story in my next
newsletter... (with your permission and anonymously) of  course!!!

At this point I feel like I'd rather sabatoge the relationship and
break it off than go through with telling him.....

for about  10 years and it's still a big pain in that respect!!

Hi there,

I don't have much advice for you.  I've only had to tell 2 people.
One said, "Whew, that's a relief, I have it too" and the other one
said that he was okay with it, anyone who didn't understand and
couldn't deal with it wasn't worth having, I really thought it was
going to be okay and I thought he was "the one", but I was wrong.
Then, he promptly disappeared.  This was devastating as he was a
friend for a long time and we no longer even have a friendship.  So,
I have to tell myself that he wasn't worth having.

I dread the time that I have to do it again, but hang in there and
just be honest.  We can only hope that the folks we tell appreciate
us telling them. I think the only way I have come up with to tell is
just to sit down and say that before things get too intense you just
need to have a serious talk with him and just come out and tell
him.  Then, maybe suggest he do some research on the internet or see
a doctor to ask questions and go from there.  It amazes me when
people freak, as it isn't something that will KILL you, it's just a
nuisance.  Not to make light of it, but I've had it since age 20 and
I'm almost 40 now, so I've really come to terms with it.

Good luck with telling him.  My thoughts will be with you and do let
us know how it goes.

Hugs,
Stacia in Daytona

I just joined this group and wanted to say hello to everyone.  I'm
not actually in Orlando, but I'm over that way quite often to see
friends.  My name is Stacia (pronounced Stay-sha) and I'm 39 and live
in the Daytona Beach area with my 4 dog kids.  I'm in the process of
divorce (will be final in a few weeks) and have had H for nearly 20 years.

Some things I enjoy are riding my motorcycle, boating, really
anything outdoors, movies, cooking and I volunteer a lot of my time
with dog rescue and sea turtle preservation.  I do medical
transcription at home and enjoy my job, though I work lots of
hours.  I'm looking forward to meeting some new people and making
some friends.

Sincerely,
Stacia
