<human>: Summarize the given text in a few sentences.

As you can see from the title, I'm an 18 year old straight female starting college next year, as both a virgin and someone with herpes.

It turns out that you can still get herpes even if you've never so much as kissed a guy before. I contracted it last year from god-knows-what; (my gynecologist posits that I probably have oral herpes and transferred it to myself somehow - first outbreak was most painful two weeks of my life). 

I realize that neither of these two things is earth-shakingly important in the long run, but I'm just concerned, as someone who hasn't got a ton of experience dating, of being rejected outright. How would you introduce this info to someone you're interested in dating?   

For the record, I'm going to a mid-sized university in an urban area.
<bot>: Going to college in two months, I have herpes/I'm a virgin; how do you tell guys this/how to deal with rejection?
