I'm a wound care nurse and I'm thinking that you more than likely have a pilonidial cyst that is draining. Sounds more likely than a herpes lesion. They don't drain like that. Should go get it checked by your family doc and maybe have to see a surgeon.

You will not transmit herpes thru routine day to day contact.

it will not travel thru clothes.

herpes lesions do not have pus. Pus is purulent discharge and usually is a sign of bacterial infection.
