My boyfriend performed oral sex on me last night, and today he found he has 2 cold sores. I want to know what the odds are of me getting genital herpes or if it's even possible. He doesn't have genital herpes by the way.

I think they are different strains of the virus. H1 and H2

Extremly low they are 2 different virus'. Play it safe and if he has an oral flare up don't do it, this is more for him so that he doesn't get one infected from the natural flora.
