Answers:
The sores caused by herpes are a cluster of tiny bumps filled with fluid!. This is usually accompanied by itching and/or slight burning sensation!. Peeling doesn't indicate herpes!. It can be caused by sun or wind damage, dehydration, or licking your lips too much!.

If you are concerned about herpes, please be aware that you can catch it by sharing anything that comes into direct contact with the affected area of someone who has it!. For example: eating utensils, cups, chapstick, and lipstick!. I am unaware if it can be passed by sharing a towel or clothing!.

You probably don't have anything to worry about!. If you keep your lips moisturised and hydrate properly, they should stop peeling in a day or two!. Herpes sores usually take around 9-12 days to heal!. Longer, if it is your first outbreak!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It could be cold sores which can be caused by oral herpes!. There are other ways then sex to get them!.
Some symptoms are itching, burning, tingling sensations all at one spot around the mouth!.This would happen around where your peeling thing is!.
Cold sores can be passed very easily and often during child hood by a relative or friend with cold sores giving or receiving a kiss from you!. You could also have gotten them by sharing utensils or cups with some one that gets cold sores!. Cold sores are common to have 50-80 percent of the population has them so you are defiantly not alone, I get them too!.
Cold sores are not an std and they can be triggered to break out by cold weather, illnesses or stress!. That is I believe partially why they are called cold sores!.
You can use things like Carmex, Abreva or Lipactin to help heal it up!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

herpes is a serious question that should be ask to a doctor, if you question whether you have herpes or not then I suggest talking to your doctor so they can help you out!. If no sexual affairs you have then I doubt it!. But then again you never know, if you feel comfortable then talk to your doctorWww@Answer-Health@Com

you don't need to ever do anything sexual to get herpes!. herpes comes in two forms!.!. type 1 and type 2, both which can be in the oral and genital location

coldsores are herpes type 1!. but can be transmitted to the genitals making it genital herpes type 1!.!.

alot of people get coldsores throughout their childhood, ussually from a kiss from aparent or sharing a drink, chapstick, ect!.!.!.

oral herpes ussually won't have any signs!.!. the only way to know for sure is to go to your doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

To repeat, you do NOT need to have ever kissed anyone to get Herpes!.!.!.!.!.also it is EXTREMELY common, they say @ 90 % of adults have the oral herpes virus!. If the peeling doesn't go away, you can go to a doctor to find out!.!.!.if it IS herpes,they can't "cure" you, but they can give you a prescription so that if it comes back in the future, it might be less severe!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

If you've never done anything sexual then no sweetie, you can't possibly have herpes!.
Your mouth may just be dry, try chapstick!.!. and if it's really bad neosporin is best!. Umm!.!. it may be because it's getting cold out and something with the wind does it!.!. idk but I can almost guarantee you that you do not have herpes
