one-time risk, condom fell off

Ok. I never thought I'd be one of the people doing this but here I am. I was traveling 2.5 weeks ago and went to a big (huge) party alone. I got drunk and ended up having sex with a guy there. He is German and 17 years old. At first he tried to go ahead without a condom but I wouldn't, so we used a condom. But in the middle it fell off, so there was some direct contact before we realized what had happened. We put the condom back on and kept going, and he came in the condom. Since we did use a condom, I had thought of this as "safe sex" and I didn't think much about it until I went to the doctor today and saw all the information on the walls about HIV. I realized that it's possible I contracted the virus during my one-night stand, since the condom fell off in the middle.

I have no way to contact this guy, don't know his last name or anything. I have no idea of his sexual history. He was only the second person I slept with; the first was in a longterm monogomous relationship and both of us were STD-free.

This one-night stand was the only one I've had, but I don't think I'll do that again. It's not worth this stress I'm experiencing now. I guess I'm wondering what you all think: does it sound like I'm at risk? I got tested today for HIV among other things, but I know 2.5 weeks isn't enough time to get an accurate result. I've experienced no abnormal health symptoms recently.

See as long as he took out his penis after the condom came off.... ur are at low risk....

u still need testing... test at 6 weeks and then 3 months to be conclusive.

(according to DR HHH) he has never seen anyone test postive after a 4-6 weeks negative.

Dunt get into ONE night stands... u will get nothing but FEAR & ANXIETY
