Yeah I don't think I'm special either, but if I am it's for being the very rare bird who talks about a potential health status up front. Many don't even if it's not potential.

I have a lot of open about herpes friends, and many others who are open to those to whom it might apply. I 100% agree with starting with those issues up front. I dunno...I forgive a bunch of irrational over those subjects, and I have been really irrational myself. I try to balance the completely irrational sex thing with rational health - it's never a perfect mix.

We all have mistakes, it's a really really good day to learn from them. I don't get the impression we get better or wiser so much as more experienced.
