Yes, he can still get it. Condom usually doesn't cover the whole area where an outbreak occurs, so since herpes is transmitted with skin to skin contact, you can still get it. It is possible to never show any symptoms at all. But, if you do, usually it's 2-14 days, but it could take years to get the first outbreak. Itching, tingling, pain, burning.

Hey, just out of curiosity, I work at a hospital ( in the office part) and I have one coworker that have herpes ( I forgot which type) and another one who keeps saying she have infections, but doesn't want to say. I don't have the virus, but being around people who does makes me more aware about things. I don't try to be rude and treat them differently, but I just want to be safe too. So, my question is... can you get herpes anywhere else other than the main areas? I heard you can get it on your hand or eye. Also, if I touch their hands accidentally or something, can I contract the virus? Can a piece of paper or any non-living object be infected and transfer to me? I wasn't well educated enough about this.

No, if you have herpes on your lips, you have oral herpes. I think the confusion comes from HSV1 or HSV2. The first one is usually referred as oral herpes and the second genital herpes. However, they're interchangeable. They could both be oral or genital (although, HSV2 is very rarely oral, but there is a possibility of that). www.lifewithherpes.com/blog/30406-hsv-1-does-not-mean-you-have-oral-herpes And sadly, when talking about safe sex regarding herpes, there's no way you can say your ex didn't get it from you. Not saying she did, but condoms offer only little protection and we can always viral shed and not know about it. A lot of misinformation comes from the fact that people think they can only spread the virus in certain circumstances, which is simply not true. You could be shedding while being on antivirals, using condoms and live healthy life. I hope that helps clarify some things.

Can I get HSV 2, if I have HSV 1 - by touch ?

If you would touch someone's sore and there would be a cut or a break in the skin in the place where you would touch them. It's skin to skin, so you have to come in contact with the virus in the area where a person has it.

@lifewithherpes I really appreciate your response. Thank you! But doctors told me that it can be transmitted through clothes , plastics or any other thing. Is this also true ?

I don’t have burns, rashes or tingles and I don’t feel like I have the flu or a sickness but it looks like I have it. Is it normal for these stuff to happen?

You can be completely asymptomatic. Many people don't know they carry the virus, because that's the case for them. If you tested positive and never have any symptoms, it means it lays dormant in your body.

In the beginning they can move a bit around a certain area, but then it will find a place it 'likes' and you should get outbreaks there.

It's not a given you will transmit. It could be the first time, it could be never. The virus has to e active to transmit, and for some people that happens more often than for others
