^ basically... @ Billy

ther's different stages of Herpes people...cold sores and shit like that are simplex 1, the other stuff is in other categories, I have no idea how many there are, or whatever cuz I'm not an STD specialist...but I remember at least a little from H.S. health class, enough to know that it IS an STD, but there are different staGes to the virus that causes Herpes...so yeah, consider yourself officially (at least somewhat) better educated lol
