Need protection: You should definitely use a condom if you continue to have sex with this GF. Genital warts are difficult to get rid off and are often very painful. Prevention is better than cure.

HPV: There are no tests for you to see if and when you got HPV. 96% of us get exposed to HPV (through touching infected skin) by the age of 26. It does not have to be contracted sexually. A common scenario is that you got it on your hand from someone else and transmitted it to your penis through touch or masturbation. But there is no test yet developed to test you for HPV. You have never had a test.
