cuticles

Hi,i have a very hopefully easy question to answer but i'd like to ask for piece of mind. I went out with a customer, we got closer while at the club. We got into the car and we started to hug and caress each other. No sex nothing not even a kiss. She however licked my finger (inside her mouth). I ha fresh cuticles on the finger, was bleeding couple hour earlier. May I have had some hIV risk if she was positive licking my finger with fresh cuticle? Thanks

I know my status as I get checked regularly anyway. So I don't understand. Was it a risk or not getting licked with cuticles? Many thanks

It is superficial and does not lead to the blood stream.

I still don't understand why a cuticle around the finger can't be via of access for the virus. If the finger is inside a vagina still no risk? But it is a small cut with red blood on it. Thanks for your answer

May I ask you an other question, I'll be seeing this girl again, she asked me to. As I don't know her status as she seems quiet open to friendship I'd like to know if I could kiss her (even deeply with french kiss with mouth ulcers), masturbate her with cuticles,oral sex unprotected and potentially vaginal sex with condom. I'm worried about hiv so I don't normally see girls for this reason.

HIV is unable to reproduce outside its living host (unlike many bacteria or fungi, which may do so under suitable conditions), except under laboratory conditions; therefore, it does not spread or maintain infectiousness outside its host.
