You're right because once you've received hpv from your partner then you have it. Sex with the same partner with the same hpv you have will not increase any other different types of hpv to form.

There is no reason to use condoms if both of you are infected. Why worry about passing a virus back and forth that you already have? *However*, you shouldn't have sex while you have symptoms.

Since you and your boyfriend are both infected, condoms won't really do anything becasue they do not really help in preventing the transmitting of hpv. On the other hand, condoms have been proven to help in the prevention of becoming pregnat.
