A Friend with Herpes

I have a friend who has herpes. I know this for pretty much a fact. He's an awesome guy and chicks really really dig him. He has this charm about him and can sleep with pretty much any girl... and he kinda does.

...but well, he's got the herp, and he's spreading it like wildfire. Not only is he tainting the local population, but he's also not telling these girls that he's got the herp.

As his friend I do not feel that I'm in the position to go out and tell the world that he's got herpes, especially to some random girl that he's hooking up with... that would be a rather shitty thing to do. It's not like it's guaranteed to spread (condoms and all)... at the same time I try to silently spread the word about his herpes around so that it would hopefully hit the ears of girls that would potentially fuck him. I've saved at least a couple of girls from the herp by doing this so far.

I'm not really looking for advice here, but I'm curious... what would you do in this situation? Confronting him about it would just be a little odd, and I don't honestly care that much about people... but... well... hmm.

 

The obvious answer is to kill your friend Pavel.

 

I can't do that for he has the tendency to buy rounds of beer.

 

Then kill him and snatch his wallet up before you bounce

 

This reminds me of the movie Kids where that one dude deflowers as many virgins as he can and he has HIV. As for your friend, I don't have any advice. Herpes being incurable is the only thing that would bother me. Make sure you don't get sloppy seconds.

 

Odd? Or just scary? And you supposedly don't care about people, but you 'save' girls from teh herp?

You're not leveling with me, Pavel!

 

uh huh sure.. a friend *wink wink* ...

 

Aw snap I hate that movie lol

 

That wouldn't benefit me that much. He won't have over 100$ in there (plus a debit card with maybe at most 300$ in his account). That would be 400$ worth of beer and a murder on my hands. Otherwise he could buy me a couple of beers once a week. At 3$ a draft at happy hour, and lets say... two beers each week... it's 6$ twice a week. That would be $48 per month and $576 per year. He is 24 and has a real job and is staying in town for now. This means that I have at least another year and a half of knowing him (until I graduate). That's at least $864 worth of beer.

 

I didn't mind it. What bothered you about it?

 

Yeah, that's a great movie but I totally got the idea before them... tsk tsk tsk.

But yeah, me and my friends are kinda keeping track of the girls that he has been with... it's always like... "Oh man, she's cute"... "No, wait... didn't Dave sleep with her?"..."Oh shit..."

 

Tell him he's being a dick?

 

Well, I do care somewhat. The girls that I've "saved" were actually friends of mine and not complete strangers. Wouldn't want them to get the herp.

 

I'm sure that he knows that already, and I'm positive that he doesn't really mind.

 

You asked what I would do: confront him.

 

As I've said... confronting him would probably be a little odd, break up a friendship, and wouldn't really achieve anything because he'd just tell me that I'm being a faggot...

I wouldn't wanna loose my beer supply.

 

Fuck that shit, man, he's tainting girls you might want to get groovy with one day!

 

Tell him you are a faggot and you totally wanna make out with him but the herpes is stopping ya and then he's like "Oh shit, I'm totally queer for you, too!" and he gets the shit taken care of and wants to make out and shit and you're like "Haha, fag, you fell for it!" and he can't spread the shit then and you get a lifetime beer supply for not telling others he's a fag.

 

go to craigslist.com and post on there that he's got herpes and is spreading it.. he'll never know it was you. word will get around and no unherped woman will want to sleep with him.

 

The most reasonable advice thus far.

Pavel- What friendship?
