hiv tramsmission

Hello, I know this may sound a bit stupid but the reason i post this question is that im really worried freaked out. so the question is, yesterday, i was with this girl who told me that she accidentally cut her nipple while shaving, after 2-3 hours, we started to make out and i forgot about her wound and kissed her nipple (with tongue), the wound as i said was not really fresh and i dont think that it was bleeding, when kissing it i may have tasted a cut but not blood, so the question is can i contract an hiv from this situation? thanks you in advance.

Not an HIV concern. 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.
