Can herpes pass in incubation stage

If a person has contracted herpes very recently and is still in the incubation period (meaning they themselves had not yet shown any signs of the first initial outbreak to come)...can they pass the virus to a new partner? It sounds crazy, but I found out this guy had sex with a woman who does have herpes,,,before he had sex with me a week later. I don't know if she was in an active outbreak or for sure infected him, but I want to know my risk if he did catch it and not know it yet. This was a date rape situation and I am of course distressed with the possibility of permanent damage other than just the act itself.

BD, what would she possibly gain by giving you hiv on purpose?  What is it going to take to make you see that you don't have hiv?  Whatever the answer is to that question, you need to make it happen.  Man, you are past the 6 week point--go get tested RIGHT NOW.  In 20 minutes you can feel a ton better.  I know 6 weeks is not conclusive but even the CDC site states that common test times are 6 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months.  Go do it man.  You will be glad you did.

A condom she provided and a condom that she applied. See thats the thing I keep thinking about. Why would I let her put a condom on me? How dumb can I be. Even If I don't have anything. I've taken 7wks out of my life, for what? Man, I'm a freakin idiot. I haven't even register for classes yet. This woman has ruined me.

The reason she did because you would have tried to put on your head. You don't have to tell us your a freakin idiot, we already know. Don't try blaming the woman for your stupidity.

Can you press charges against someone who gave you a deadly disease, if you can prove they know they had it?????? This should be against the law.

What about Ca. And I dont mean Canada. I would press charges and sue this woman. But it might be embarassing. I wouldn't want every one to know I had it.

Part of me want to take a test to prove to you that I'm right and you and Dr. H dont know everything. Its a no win situation. I have it, I guess I can say I told you so, but who would get pleasure out of that. I would be 1,000,000 times the headcase I am now. The more I think about it I may have had a small opening right above my penis. I was picking a a small bump or something. When I climaxed I waited to tell and she was still on top and doing her thing. Then as I went soft she just sat all the way down for like 45sec. Her Vagina could have been right on the opening in my skin. added she could've been recently infected, cuz I've come to the conclusion there is no way she knows or believes she has it, or is an incredible actress. Basically, I'm screwed.

Get it through that thick skull of yours, Maverick did not test positive and you never have had a risk. You just wish you were infected for some unknown reason. Lonely, you'll always be lonely. You do that on your own choosing. I can understand why no one wants to be around you.

What the hell? Even if I test pos, I'm going to be lonely cuz you and others on the forum aren't going to believe me. Or say I was lying about my exposure like everyone did Maverick. I just need to test and get it over with. I'm trying no to make any threats about the person who I believe infected me, but there are times where I go from being scared to being really really pissed.

If I knew you could get herpes while wearing a condom, I never would have had sex.
