You can get herpes way before your first outbreak, you probably have had it for awhile and just didnt know it. And as your relationship goes its okay when your not having outbreaks and just explain that to him( I know this because my parents have herpes and I share drinks with them and I dont have it) but they say there is a small chance that your can spread it. I dont know though you shouldnt feel ugly or stupid, just go on with life, it will not ruin your career and I say you're heading in a good direction. I would probably be upset too but they havent found a cure yet, so you have to just accept that its not going to go away!(not being rude) dont be irresponsible with it tho, like the one who spread it to you, let your boyfriend know and if he leaves you thats his issue not yours someone will accept the fact that you have it and be with you anyways.!! Good luck
