    Yes Yes Yes it’s possible…Cold sores on the mouth are very common to have 50-80 percent of the world has them, they are commonly passed during child hood by kissing relatives or people that have cold sores. You can get cold sores before you ever have sex. Cold sores are very contagious and they can be passed to the genitals if you give oral sex when one of you has an out break of cold sores.
    By the way you’re not technically a virgin any more if you have had oral, anal or regular sex before. Anal and oral sex are still part of having sex, there is still penetration involved just in different orifices. You can get herpes through having any kind of sex.
    Keep an eye out for cold sores and using condoms can cut your risk down as long as your partners lips don’t leave the area covered by the condom. If you or your partner ever develops a cold sore do not have oral sex.
