It would be prudent to see your doctor. HPV and HSV are not necessarily prevented by using a condom. An infection with either or even both may not cause any symptoms. Safe sex: https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/wellness-and-prevention/safer-sex-guidelines

I had a french kiss and licked the nipple of a girl. since she has a lot of sexual partners currently, I'm worried about getting stds such as syphilis. I didn't have vaginal, anal, nor oral sex. Should I be worried? I know herpes is possible?

But can you contract herpes from dry humping with clothes on. Will the chances increase when the girl becomes "wet?" Or has had a vaginal secretion from being sexually stimulated?
