I live almost in Nashville and was diagnosed with HSV-2 about 4 years ago. It’s been a wild non sexual ride as I have not dated or been intimate with anyone since I found out.

I’ve tried positive singles, but I’m thinking of going on dating apps like bumble and disclosing accordingly. To me it seems concerning how connected everyone is in my area.

So I’ll just say it. I’m what is considered an attractive tall dude, and sort of stand out most places.

So how many matches or dates before people at my work start realistically gossiping about my condition? I could just assume everyone knows now and just not care, but just curious if anyone has dealt with dating and disclosing on the main dating apps in an area that has tight gossipy networks.
