To teak and regular joey, about biting.

can you get hiv from someone "softly" biting you, if there is only slight mark on your skin is there a need  to worry. IF this happens per say in a playful manner, and no blood is visable, just a light mark from where the teeth pressed against the skin?

No.  Exchange of blood, seman or vaginal fluid ONLY proven method of transmission.

From what you describe - Zero chance.

Take care.
