Maybe, maybe not: What do you mean that you "might" have HPV? Current abnormal pap smear? Previous one, now treated? Maybe past genital warts? If so, are they gone? There's no reason to mention a past HPV problem that's now gone. If you have an active infection, best to tell him -- but even then, probably no harm would come to him if infected. Every potential partner he might meet "might" have HPV.
