    Girlfriend wants to take another break
    My girlfriend and I have been dating for a little over 3 months. About 2 months ago she found out she had hsv 1 ( a form of herpes which is cold sores). I told her I'd stick by her side no matter what. So we took a little 2 week break. During this time I found out I unknowingly gave it to her. Apparently I've had this since I was a kid. Everything was fine as we got back together until one of our friends blabbed to her and started making fun of the situation in which I told him to keep things between he and I. She then went quiet for a week and a half and then decided to take another break so she can fully come to terms with herself and be OK with herself again. She said she still wants to be with me but not until she's fully come to terms with the fact I gave her the virus and not resent me for it. She still wants me in her life however. How should I handle this situation and go about keeping things strong between us?

    Stop telling your personal business to others, when you tell another person, they will not keep it secret, you didn't.

    I doubt it will work out but all you can do now is give her space.

    Give her space so she can decide for herself how she should handle this.
