Herpes

Honestly I’m having a hard time accepting the fact I have herpes. Have known for about 8 months now and at first I was distraught then I got over it and realized it wasn’t the end of the world. Me and my boyfriend broke up about a month or so ago and that’s who I got it from. Obviously when we were together I didn’t care AS MUCH because he had it, so it wasn’t a big deal. Now that I’m single I’m nervous and self conscious that when I have to tell the next guy i talk to it will freak them out/ gross them/ push them away and it makes me not want to date for fear of rejection. Thoughts? Insight from others that have the virus?
