So when do I?

So I found out I had herpes a little less than a year ago. It still crushes my soul. I randomly met this guy and we've been on one date but even the thought of me having to tell him that I have herpes gave me so much anxiety and uncomfortableness that I broke it off, pretty much I just stopped talking to him but a few weeks later he's back contacting me and idk how to handle this situation. Idk if I should tell him or just stop talking to him. I'm not going to tell him right away as I feel like this information is only for people I feel that I'm really connected to and/or going to be sexual with. I've NEVER told anyone that I have herpes and I'm just so confused and sad.
