it's likely that he already had it, it is that common (also he may likely be carrying the virus without any signs, as so many are). since my diagnosis, i was with one partner who'd never had any problems, sometimes we didn't use condoms, he still never had any problems.
i was also diagnosed with it on my cervix. i have the strain that's more likely to cause cervical cancer. all i have to do is get more frequent pap smears. but it most definately rocked my world when i first found out, your feelings are totally normal!
when i met my husband, i found out that he'd already had warts before... so we didn't worry about it. i got actual warts on the outside for the first (and only) time after we'd been married for some months. a little creme took care of them and i haven't had any problems since!
