some questions for people in relationships

I was recently diagnosed with hsv2 genital herpes. I am still coming to terms with it. I have been talking to a couple of guys and normally just cut it off before it gets to sex so that I can avoid telling anyone. i just wanted to know how long some people waited before they told someone that they had it and what were some of the reactions they received? good and bad.

I would wait a while until you believe a guy could possibly be "the one" and you know he truly cares about you and if he truly is.. then he would love you just the same. Plus, if you make them wait a while for sex and they decide not to date you because they haven't gotten any.. they'd be the one to just leave anyway, plus you saved the whole having to tell them bit.
