I got diagnosed with hsv 1 couple months ago by a previous partner that had a cold sore on her lip. My question is if i give oral to another partner and there are no symptoms or outbreak can they get it? Or is it a high risk for them to get it?

i would suggest that you don't give oral unless a condom is involved. however, coldsores are still active about 1.5 days after they are no longer visible so it is definitely something to keep close attention to.
