I dont think it's possible to pass on a urinary tract infection, no.

However I dont think it'd be a good idea to partake in sexual activity until it clears up, cos if there is any bacteria on your area or on your boyfriend's, having sex is likely to push it up your urethra. If you do, make sure both you and him are really really clean first!

Yes you can pass on a water infection, I had it when I was about 7 through sharing bath water with my brother. He had it. I dont know if u can pass it through sex, but you can through water. Id ask a doc before u pass it on.
