People either have the virus or they don't, but frequency of outbreaks can vary from person to person. Some people are never aware they have the virus, others may have an initial outbreak but no more, yet others may have outbreaks several times a year. There is really no way in assessing whether or when an outbreak might occur. Having said that, and going back to lifestyle issues, it is thought that a good diet and stress management are important factors in maintaining a healthy immune system. In those prone to outbreaks stress does appear to be an important factor.
