I had herpes on my neck 6 years ago. Will my partner get the virus if I get sexually engaged with him or if I kiss him?

The mode of transmission of herpes is by direct fluid tranfer by the blister of infected person to the non infected person. As your query suggest you had herpes 6 years ago. The chances of your partner get infected by your herpes infection is negligible.
