LoveSkar helps people living with genital herpes (GHSV) find connection, community, and support through local meetups, social events, group travel and cruises, advocacy, and merchandise designed to promote awareness and a sense of belonging.
Come along with me as we build this community from the ground up.
Dating is difficult enough. Dating responsibly with HSV can add another layer—figuring out when to disclose, worrying about rejection, and wondering whether someone will see you instead of your diagnosis.
LoveSkar is about creating a different kind of space.
At our HSV-focused meetups and events, you can connect with people who already understand the experience. There’s less explaining, less fear of judgment, and more opportunity to simply be yourself, build friendships, meet someone special, and see where a genuine connection can lead.
Imagine meeting someone who understands the part of your story you thought you had to hide—the person who shares your “skeleton in the closet” and still sees everything else that makes you who you are. That might just be the real unicorn of dating.
LoveSkar isn’t just about dating. It’s about community, confidence, friendship, support, adventure, and belonging—with the possibility of finding love along the way.
Help us build the kind of HSV community you want to be part of. Sign up, introduce yourself, and tell us what you’d like to see: local meetups, dinners, social events, outdoor activities, destination trips, cruises, or something completely different.
No shame. No judgment. Just real people, real connection, and a community that gets it.
Private & Respectful
A small mark. A big shift in how we talk about it.
Disclosure shouldn’t feel like a confession. The LoveSkar heart-and-bandage symbol is a subtle community identifier that helps members recognize one another, build genuine connections, and start conversations naturally within the LoveSkar community.
Sign up with your email to receive newsletters, community updates, upcoming meetup announcements, and exclusive LoveSkar news.

Attend local meetups, make meaningful friendships, and connect with people who already understand your journey. Build lasting relationships in a welcoming, supportive community.
The LoveSkar heart-and-bandage logo represents acceptance, connection, and belonging. More than just a logo, it’s a symbol that brings our community together and reminds every member that they are never alone.
Join a growing community built around friendship, advocacy, and meaningful connections. Be part of something bigger from day one.
