Hello @monroe! 

What type of herpes do you have and in what location?

[monroe]

partner was diagnosed with hsv1 i have no symptoms at all getting tested soon we’ve just been to get her for 9 years n just tested himself all these years neither one of us have symptoms

Almost everyone has HSV 1 and lot of people are asymptomatic. Usually people have it orally but it can be located on genitals too if for example person who has HSV 1 orally gives oral sex to a person who is HSV 1 negative. If woman has genital HSV 1 then caution is needed during giving birth because if virus is active baby can be infected during childbirth and infection of infant can be really serious. 

Why so much worries if you and your partner don't have any symptoms?
