I have a close friend with herpes as well. It's very hard to not balk at first, but realize she's a person and didn't ask for the disease. It *is* true you can get it at any time and can even transmit it to the mouth thru oral tho it's pretty rare and depends on the strength of her outbreaks. Some almost never have an outbreak, and when they do, it's gone in a couple days. Others it's a painful week long experience.
Also realize her outbreaks will most likely follow her menstrual cycle so Period week is also Herpes Week, leaving her out of commission sexually the whole week (recommended anyway). According to what has been told to me a herpetic can tell early when an outbreak is coming so she should be able to warn you tho this is no guarantee. Ask yourself this question; are your feelings and the person she is worth the (albeit slim) possibility of you gettting the disease yourself?
If you do decide you can't hang, be as easy on her as you can. She's already got a sexual black cloud hanging over her that will haunt her thru all chances of getting with a guy so be as sensitive about it as possible.
