Do I actually have it or not???

Thank you for taking the time to read my email. I am a lesbian, and
was informed by a former partner that during a round of STD tests, that
she was positive for the HSV-2 antibodies blood test. I didn't know
anything about this test, and was alarmed. I immediately went and had a
round of all the STD tests done, including the HSV-2 test. I was
negative on everything except this herpes test. My doctor didn't even
include this test normally with the STD tests, but I insisted, so he agreed,
but told me that I was wasting my time and money getting the HSV-2
test, when I had never had any signs or outbreak of symptoms, (and neither
had my former partner).

I am confused! I most definitely do NOT want to possible transmit
something to someone, if I have it. Do I have genital herpes?? Should I
tell any future partner about the result of this antibodies test? I
ruined a promising partnership already by the way I handled this. I've
had soo many people tell me that I don't have it, that I've only been
exposed to it, so I'm not telling anyone anything by revealing this
test result. But in good conscience, I have to be honest with people. I
have never experienced rejection before, and the person that I told
freaked out and totally dissappeared.

Do I have it? What do I tell, how do I explain, a test result with
never having any symtoms?

Thank you for your time!
