Ok so this is kind of personal...actually it is very personal but I feel mylot is a place where i can open up. Also in this situation I can help educate others.
So I have herpes. I got it on February 16, 2009 and was diagnosed with it on March 9, 2009. I was a really stupid and rebellious teenager and i went and hung out with a guy that my parents had forbidden me to see. He told me we would hang out at the mall for awhile on Feb. 15 then he would take me home, but instead he picked me up and took me back to his house. I did not own a cell phone so I could not call my parents to come and get me. When he did let me call home, I had to tell them i was spending the night at a friends and she would take me to school in the morning and i wasnt allowed to say anything else otherwise he would hurt me. He raped me repeadly on the 16th and then took me home. I was stupid and didnt tell anyone until i had to go to the hospital and missed two weeks of school because i had gotten the herpes.
So moral of the story. PLEASE DONT BE LIKE ME! Also, if anyone wants to ask questions or tell me about your experience feel free. I am very open and love to help others.

Thanks. I feel it is sometimes neccisary to share very personally confidential things to educate others. I have recieved alot of counseling because of this and other than the occasional outbreak I am living life to the fullest. I got lucky in the fact that I did not get a life threatening STD but I was unfortunate because herpes is lifelong. Thank you for your support it means alot that some people realize that just because I purposfully defied my parents doesnt mean that I dont regret what I did everyday of my life. Most teens think they are invinsible and indestructable, and when they do stuff like this happens. I dont wish this on anyone but I wish teens and even adults would realize that these things dont just happen to people "you dont know" it can happen to you.

I am truly sorry to read of such a horrible act this person did to you. I am proud of you for speaking out. This will allow others who perhaps do not feel this too can happen to them can re-think their behavior.
Do take care of yourself and perhaps, check online for some organizations that you can perhaps speak to and maybe inspire other teens to change their ways. Not saying you did anything wrong but there might be some really rebellious teens out there that can benefit from listening to you.
I will pray for you sweetie as this is a very sad story and perhaps making changes for others will be a blessing.
I believe I have welcomed you before, and I have not not welcome aboard.

I hope she can too as our teens today are not getting any wiser, they are not taking this seriously. So I am sure it can be so rewarding to turn 1 out of let say 3 kids around.

oh my.. that must be very hard to go through but i can see that you did and you are very open about this, you did not hide nor rebel more. May God give you more blessings and yes you are educating us, i have a daughter and i am afraid what she will be like in her teens that is why right now i am teaching her well for her to decide well in the future..but then there are things that is hard to control, like that guy you met, who would have known he is some bad person who would hurt you...thank you very much for sharing

It is great sad thing to hear.These kind of bastaards must be taken into the public and their d**ks should be cut down or shot in front of the public so that everyone will have the fear of not raping.

Hi. MHerman09. I am so sorry to hear about this. Even if you may have disobeyed your parents, it is still his fault. He should have not raped you. It is best to go to the police with this information. He is a dirty man and he deserves to be left into jail to rot!
