Fingering and blood
I am confused....I'm a girl... A guy fingered me,(I don't know his status), and he was quite forceful and afterwards I realised I was bleeding quite a lot. Assuming he was HIV+ and he had a cut on his finger, what would be my risk?... Just wondering because I could not find a similar scenario, where the girl had a cut too. Thanks.
Even if he had cut on his finger, catching HIV to you is almost not possible.(If his cut is too big that he was bleeding, he wont bother to finger you.. but worry about the pain on his finger). Very Very rare. But if you are HIV+ ( only if you are) then he has considerable amount of risk since you were bleeding.
He had been drinking a bit earlier in the evening... But we were watching tv and just talking in bed beforehand... So I guess there isn't much chance that even if he did have a cut it would be fresh and bleeding, right? Sorry, I'm just anxious.
