Will I have caught herpes/cold sore?

I have never had a cold sore or herpes outbreak before but I'm just wondering how it can be caught. Someone kissed me goodbye on my head and forehead a few times and I'm just wondering whether I can contract this on my head or forehead? Also if I touch it straight after and touch my lips can I catch it? So worried please help
