Herpes is rapidly becoming one of the most prevalent STDs in North America. Yes, it sucks, but it isn't the end of the world; unlike some other STDs, it isn't going to kill you. I think you'll find that you have company; this is definitely one of those situations where seeking out a support group might be helpful. Getting to know others who have herpes and who have had to deal with these issues might be the right place to start. They're likely to have better advice than we do.
And who knows, maybe you'll stumble across a guy who also has HSV-2. But Crompsin's right--honesty is the best policy, both for yourself (to save yourself the time and possible heartache) and any potential partner.
