Herpes experiences

What are your guy’s experiences with herpes? I know I have HSV-1 because I’ve always gotten cold sores as a kid. I got tested for HSV-2 back in January and my test results came back as present for HSV 1 and 2.. my doctor never told me. I found out on my online medical info yesterday.. I googled about it and it said a false positive can be formed if you have HSV-1 or chicken pox (HSV-3) in your system.. is this maybe why he didn’t tell me? Ive never had bumps in my genital area either, and I know that information states that some people don’t get any ever, but from my research on here and by talking to people, everyone claims to have had at least one outbreak at some point.. so, I’m confused
