Stigma is a sad sad thing. I'm really sorry you are having such a hard time with all of this :(
If it means anything - I don't think this makes you "slutty" in the least, no matter what type of Herpes you have, or how it was contracted - or anyone else with any type of STI. And it isn't true or fair for people to look at herpes or any STI for that matter, they way they do. Hopefully one day we can all be thoroughly educated on the matter - and the risks and prevention.
