tested Negative but suspect to have hiv

i'm gay, 20 years old, college student. and this is my story:

About a week (+a few days) ago, I started to worry if I got hiv through 2 encounters with 2 guys (separately) I met on the internet:

1) the first guy (around Dec 20): we deep-kissed in his car. he jacked me off a little, but I never touched his privates. I humped his rear but with both his pants and my pants on. i came in my pants he came on his stomach.

2) the second guy(Jan 11-13): we deep-kissed in his room; he had put his finger not so far but into my anus with his saliva. his penis has rubbed against and around my anus but never went inside. and I never went into him either. no blow-jobs. he also told me that i was the first one he messed around with since over 3 months, and i knew for fact that he studies medical stuff and he told me he'd go get tested every 3 months.

I went to get tested on feb 13, exactly a month after i "messed around" with the second guy. it came out Negative.

I know there's that window period and I'm worried that i might be in it during the test. reasons:
I kind of have symptoms of ARS (first hiv stage):
low fever, chills, and still neck...but strangely they all happen at night (it's been 3-4 days). during the day i'm fine.

there are lots of cold and flu going around on campus, my roommate is sick, but he has running nose, which i don't..only low fever during the night. I really don't know if i'm just having a regular flu plus stress and anxiety or i do actually have hiv.

i'm planning to get tested again in 2 weeks (that is 6 weeks after exposure). my first test was a rapid test and I knew the accuracy is extremely high but i'm just worried that it might be during the window period.

so what do u guys think? do i have it? would a hiv test show positive if i'm already in the first stage of hiv?

THANK YOU SO MUCH!

you were never at risk from what you have described.

hiv is transmitted through...
unprotected vaginal/anal intercourse
sharing iv drug works
mother to child

transmission requires penetration

but what if the second guy's pre-cum got onto my anus and went inside? pre-cum can carry hiv as well right?

You were never at risk. HIV cannot transmit outside it's host.

Maybe another stupid question on my part but is the mouth considered "outside the host"?
