Should I get tested? Should we stop having sex?
My last test for HSV1 and 2 was negative, but this was before I met present partner

30% to 40% of all sexually active people are infected with HSV2 so if neither of you have ever had any outbreaks it means the virus does not affect either of you so you don't have to worry about it at all.
You can get tested if you want but in my opinion it would be a waste of time. Nothing changes if you test positive and neither does it change if you test negative so just carry on with life and enjoy the sex.
