HPV is usually passed by some sort of sexual contact.
A person needs to either have sex with someone who has the virus or have some sort of skin to skin contact with the area (warts).
A person can NOT get HPV from sitting on a toilet seat, shower, sharing drinks or food, a pool, etc.
Check out this site for more information on HPV:

Also, gonzo, is talking about herpes which is NOT HPV. Herpes and HPV (human papillomavirus) are two very different viruses that have nothing to do with each other.

Yes, it is very possible. I was a virgin and so was my boyfriend and I have HPV for some reason. Neither of us cheated on the other. My gynaecologist says scientists still don't know if it is only transmitted by sexual intercourse. Apparently not, since he has seen women who are in their 70's and sexually inactive get the virus while they didn't have it before.

Yeah you kinda got the concept, staring / making eye contact with a girl doesn't mean the guy likes her. In MY perspective, it can mean three things: 1. The guy is comfortable talking to the girl, and is comfortable with her presence around (just friends). I plenty of friends that are girls and I always make eye contact when I talk to them, it's just casual u kno? 2. The guy wants to meet the girl / is interested in her (acquaintance). Either that, or... the girl is weird-looking or ugly lol. But still, guys wouldn't stare at a girl that long if she's like that. 3. The guy likes the girl. He doesn't know how to express his feelings, but wishes he could find a way to do so. I would tell you straight up how to tell which one of these views does a guy mean when he makes eye contact or stares, but I don't think I can. You should just.. kinda sense it. Good luck, you'll be more familiar with it along the way haha. Hope this helped ;)

HPV? No. Sexual contact only, mainly skin to skin contact from a carrier of this virus.
