What do I need to know about the warts???

What do I need to know about the warts???

So I'm seeing a guy who has told me he has had genital warts and we're ready to get intimate.  He had 3 frozen off at least 8 years ago, nothing since.  Would he still be contagious now?  I've read about "clearing" the virus but does that mean it's dormant or completely gone?

If he had genital warts 8 years ago and haven't had any since, he no longer have the virus. You shouldn't worry about you being infected.

My doctors and many credible sources has said if one goes 6 months without warts, they are no longer contagious.
