I Have HSV2, Can I Kiss Somebody

It's not about what type you have as much as where you have it. It's skin to skin contact that transmits herpes, so you can kiss all you want if you have genital herpes, and will not transmit

So technically me having HSV 2 it’s safe for me to share drinks or food and not pass it on or have any sexual encounter orally with out passing it ? I don’t have HSV 1 I only have HSV 2 genital

If you have it only genitally, you cannot give it to others by sharing drinks, yes
