My boyfriend was touching me on my genitals but had to stop because my family got home. We had to run down stairs, so we would not get introuble. He didn't have a chance to wash his hands yet before my little brother grabbed his hand. Could my little brother get genital herpes from this?

I'm assuming you have herpes? I doubt your little brother could get herpes from touching your brothers hand. Just curious, did you come up with a reason to have your little brother go wash his hands?

It's possible, but unlikely. Especially if you didn't have any symptoms at the time, which I would assume you didn't if you were allowing someone to touch your genitals. And even IF (huge IF there) he did get herpes, he wouldn't get genital herpes.

Yes, I did but he ignored me until i finally came up with the idea of making him a snack and saying to go wash his hand first.
