Ok, confusing. You say you had a huge anal herpes first outbreak. Were you tested? By swab or blood test? Results? Type?
You say you had STD tests and were STD free. Herpes is NOT part of a standard STD testing. Do you know for fact that you were tested and were negative for herpes? Has he been tested?
Too many pieces of the puzzle missing in your question.
Generally the best way to know if this is a new infection is to have swab/blood test done
at same time. If swab comes back positive but blood test comes back negative that
GENERALLY indicates a new infection as your body has not had time to produce enough antibodies.
He could have had this for many years and it just passed to you now. Or you could have had it for many years and just started to show symptoms that were enough to seek medical attention.
If you have yours/his test results post them.
Just because you are showing symptoms does not automatically mean that he cheated on you. This virus is spread mostly by people who HAVE it but do not KNOW they have it.
