genital hsv1 transmission

Hello,

I have had genital herpes type 1 for about 5 years now. I have had 2 bad outbreaks in the first 2 years, but I have not had any outbreaks like that since then. I sometimes get a little itchy in the same spot, but that has only happened a few times as well (is that even an outbreak? no blisters?) Anyway, I just started dating a new man who is negative for both 1 and 2. I have a few questions:

1. Can he get oral type 1 from performing oral sex on me?
2. Can he get genital type 1 from protected vaginal sex?
3. Can he get genital type 1 from unprotected sex?


Basically. what are the chances that I am going to give this to him??

Thank you!
