So I'm new to this.
I just kissed a guy while drunk and I think he might have had oral herpes. I don't want that shit. Should I get checked? I haven't had any symptoms and it's been 3 days. Sould I wait till I get symptoms? My dad has oral herpes and has been married to my mom for 27 years and she never got it. I know I'm a paranoid piece of shit.

>About 50% to 80% of U.S. adults have oral herpes. According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), by age 50, about 90% of adults have been exposed to the virus.
Please keep your autism in check.

>Transmission of Oral Herpes. Oral herpes is usually caused by HSV-1. HSV-1 is the most prevalent form of herpes simplex virus, and infection is most likely to occur during preschool years. Oral herpes is easily spread by direct exposure to saliva or even from droplets in breath. Skin contact with infected areas is enough to spread it. Transmission most often occurs through close personal contact, such as kissing. In addition, because herpes simplex virus 1 can be passed in saliva, people should also avoid sharing toothbrushes or eating utensils with an infected person.
It doesn't take much to get it. Just getting a kiss on the cheek from a relative as a child can be enough.
