Did my ex cheat and give me HIV?

First off, i have a major fear of HIV (for at least a year now) and i have just got out of a 3 month relationship.
I'm worried that my ex may have passed HIV onto me because he's bicurious and has a reputation for kissing (but not doing other stuff) to both genders when drunk (regardless of whether hes dating or not). I had the hiv, gonorrhea, syphilis, chlamydia, herpes, etc tests a week after we broke up and they came back negative. I was fine and happy, until i started remembering back to something my ex said when we was still going out and at a party - he basically said "ive sucked off 7 guys" whilst he was right next me - i know hes only ever done gay stuff with one guy before we got together. Everyone i know has said that he didn't cheat on me and that people do say stupid/untrue things when drunk, but i literally cannot get it out of my head. TL:DR, i think that my ex cheated on me with loads of guys and has passed on HIV to me and that it wont of shown up yet.
Thank you for your time and please help me, i am literally falling apart with worry.

No.. HIV canot be transmitted via oral sex. Saliva neutrilizes the virus, and thus making it inactive. If he said he sucked 7 guys off in a matter of a week, hes probably just trying to scare you, doesnt seem very logical to me anyways. I think you will fine.

Heya, thank you for your help :) i forgot to add that he said it about a week before we broke up - could he have sucked 7 guys off, got HIV then passed it on to me about a week before he ended it?
Also, i thought HIV was contracted through oral sex?

A test 3 months after your last exposure with him, if negative, will be conclusive. Even if what he said was true about the 6 or 7 blowjobs, HIV is not transmitted via oral sex, and he wouldnt have gotton that way anyways, and thus, cannot give it to you.
