There is no rhyme or reason for herpes outbreaks. It can happen twice in a month, then not again for several years. So long as she knows when an outbreak is starting, you can either abstain till it passes or just be extra careful. I dated a woman with herpes many years ago. I never contracted the disease. She told me that sex was way too painful with the outbreak anyway.
The herpes virus obviously can't be cured. The anti-virals used only help speed up the process so the outbreaks are shorter and less painful.
In short, don't give up on her yet. So long as she is honest with you about the outbreaks, you should be fine.
The flip side is if you really can't handle the idea of her having herpes, tell her and end it now. It will only end poorly if you don't and thats not fair to either of you.
