Had you had a risk then 3 Months is conclusive.There is NO such window period as 6 Months and I wish people would understand this fact.

they screwed around on their wives / girlfriends / boyfriends / whatever...contracted hiv...and don't want to be:

kicked to the curb
get busted out for having sex with another man
admit they cheated
etc
etc

no one has been infected that way...no matter what they "claim"
