Can someone explain nicely?

I have a phobia of HIV. However, I was so scared after one man I was naked with and unprotected oral turned out to be positive. I did PCR testing at 1 week and 4 weeks, and negative. Now I am EXTRA careful and don't do anything except naked body contact, kissing, and mutual masturbation.

NOW... Why is it that if my partner ejaculates on my penis, and presumably some of his semen makes it way onto my urethra (penis hole), wouldn't that transmit the virus, if his semen were to go in my hole?

If someone could please explain I would REALLY appreciate it. Maybe then I can go on with my life. i am only 23.

Okay, so honestly...

the ONLY 3 ways to get HIV are from
1) Unprotected vaginal/anal
2) mother to child
3) needles???

I haven't done any of these! So am I really ok?
Pls someone help!

Hello...

If you carefully read the posts by experts who give very sane and accurate advice say that HIV cannot survive outside the host body. So when semen is ejaculated it comes into contact with the atmosphere thus, the virus cannot survive...
Secondly, oral sex is not a HIV risk..

Be safe....
