  1. Yes, you can. Cold sores are herpes. You can pass herpes along through genital-genital contact, mouth-mouth contact, and mouth-genital contact. It's harder to get from an object-like a cigarette, but still very possible.


  2. Yes, you can be exposed to this virus if she has a cold sore on her lip.

    It is not a good idea to share items like cigarettes or drink out of some else's glass because you can catch a cold or even develop meningitis.

    I know it seems unlikely, but I know of a couple of college students who died from meningitis after being exposed to it at a party where people were doing keg stands.

    Now, if she has genital herpes, you cannot catch it by sharing her cig.

  3. Yep, Im afraid so.

  4. Yes you can but it is not the same kind of herpes as you get on your genitals.
