This guy I've stared talking too let me know that he has Hsv2😱😱

We have never did anything physical or even kissed but I really like him and he's special to me, but this just made me do a360 turn, like I don't want to stop talking to him because that's mean and rude but them again I care about my body to and don't want to catch it. 
If anyone has any experience with this please let me know!!!!!!
