Possibility of herpes

[Turtlebay15]

A couple nights ago I ended up grinding on a guy while in bed with no clothes on.  He had his shorts on and I think he took them off so there was skin to skin contact.  My vaginal area was on his area but we didn't have sex.  Is there a possibility he has herpes and could of passed it to me?

I understand.

Oh okay, I just get worried when I do things with a guy who I'm not sure is clean or not

That would not be a sign of a primary outbreak. You would usually just notice the lesions forming. It may hurt and itch from the act itself.

Thank you, that makes me feel better.  I was just worried because my vagina hurts and is itchy!

Like I said. Your chance is so small. It's not worth being stressed about. First off the odds are he doesn't have hsv. Second the odds are he wasn't shedding at the time if he did have it. Third even if he did and was most exposures do not lead to infection and a little grinding is less riskyou than Intercourse. Add it all up and you had a very low risk encounter.

It was skin to skin I think I was drunk so I can't 100%  remember

If you were skin to skin then there is a very small risk. That being said the risk would be so small I wouldn't  worry.
