Question about contracting HIV

Hello,

I am a 23 yrs. old bi sexual male. I recently (though regrettably) had an unprotected anal sex with another male. Now I'm just completely worried and feel stupid about it. He used his saliva as a lube. Later on I asked him about being checked out. He said not to worry about it, because he is clean, he got checked about 2 weeks ago.

As far as my sexual history goes, he would be the first male. And I'm not really all that sexually active.

Also, he did not ejaculate inside me, he pulled out (if that's the correct term).

well...hopefully he is telling you the truth.

hiv is found in pre-*** too...so the fact that he didnt ejaculate only "lessens" your chance.

test at 6-8 weeks post exposure for a good indication of your status...but follow it up at 3 months for a conclusive result.

I have another question. How can the pre-*** enter me through anal? I know seems like a rather stupid question, but I'll ask anyways
