Yes caterina, you can contract herpes from
another person that is infected. Usually
through vaginal or anal intercourse, but
it is also possible to get it if you have
come in contact with the open sores on the
infected person, then touch your mouth or
genitals. It can also be passed if the
person has herpes around their mouth and
they give you oral sex, or visa versa.

Hey, sounds like you're asking if you can
get hpv/genital warts from someone who
only has genital herpes. My
understanding is that you cannot, only the
herpes itself in this case. However, it
is not uncommon for individuals to have
both herpes and warts, and for that
individual to not know that they do have
both as either can exist in a latent state
that is not easily visible. Check out
