Brief Answer:
You can give each other hsv2

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I read your query and here is my advice.
You can get hsv 2 by having oral sex. The virus of hsv2 can be transmitted even though you don't have active blisters on genitals.
So as a conclusion you can give each other genital herpes.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
Thanks.
