It depends how big of a deal you think it is. If I understand it correctly. Herpes stays in the system but the symptoms come and go in periods. It's not dangerous like HIV.
With communication and maybe some type of gel or pills you can ease the symptoms /make them go away faster.
If I meet the man in my life, him having blemishes on his penis or mouth once every third month is not stopping me no.
As long as you couole up and commit long term and don't sleep/ make out with random side pieces and spread the desease I think it's ok.
