I have been seeing the same girl that I had the initial encounter with a few weeks ago. I told her about the HSV-2 and she got tested which was negative. I had read a lot of the most recent studies but even though I always use a condom and am on daily antiviral’s I think I am going to break it off because I care too much about her to take a chance of transmitting HSV2 to her. What are the real percentages of transfer with daily antiviral, 100% condom use and no sex during predome or during a breakout? The studies I have read say between 2-3% chance with these precautions. Do you agree or do you believe the risk of transition is higher? I don’t want to hurt this person in any way and breaking it off is probably the right thing to do. Thanks in advance.

I personally think breaking it off with her because of your HSV 2 infection is the WRONG thing to do. Is she a grown up? If yes, then she can make the decision to take a risk and you should let her. I think. You are worried about hurting her? There are certainly other ways to hurt someone than through acquiring herpes and you breaking up with her because of this might well be one of them.
The percentages that you list are correct.
