I went out with this girl and she has genital herpes, we only kissed and she gave me a hand job. We didn't have penetration or fluids exchange. Is there any chance I got infected?

    No, it is possible that u can get hsv1 in your mouth from kissing her if she has it. U can only catch it by direct skin to skin contact orally or through genital contact

      Also herpes does not pass through fluid. It is a skin virus that lives deep in your nerve cells and it stays dormant towards the bottom of your spine. When it becomes active it will travel up the nerves and cause an outbreak like blisters, ulcer, redness etc. it is not carried in bodily fluid such as blood, semen or discharge. Only in the molecules on ur skin.
