False negative at 3 months? - Teak please respond

I just got a negative rapid test at three months mark.  My exposure was performing oral sex and possible insertive anal with a male (I too am male).  possible b/c i was very drunk and remember cannot remember.  When I got my test, however, I told the woman that my exposure was unprotected sex with a female b/c i was too embarassed to say it was with another male.  would the test result still be reliable?  or do you think b/c i said it was with a female that she didnt actually perform the rest right b/c she didnt think i was at risk?  i saw the reader and it was a negative test for sure.

Unprotected sex with a female is also a risk, so the woman wouldn't have thought you were not at risk and not tested you.  You've got to be kidding me!  Your anxiety is what is keeping you from accepting the results.  You are negative!

You've received a reliable negative result. You are NEGATIVE. Use condoms consistently and correctly and you won't have these worries.
