When i said he should be ok, i was referring the the one act they did but not to continue without some precautions like condoms and antivirals.

Just want to throw out there - for anyone who may be reading this - the poster has HSV1 not HSV2 which sheds less frequently and does not transmit genital-to-genital very often.  

HSV2 on the other hand sheds much more frequently and is transmitted most often when the carrier is asymptommatic.

As long as he did not come into contact he should be ok.

Roughly the same area. I know it's an outbreak because I have a couple spots and I know what it feels like

Hi, have you ever had outbreaks before? As long as someone does not come into contact with a sore or a shedding spot there is no risk.
