Could i be infected?

Hi doctors,  about 7 years ago I was 16, I experimented with another guy. We both were never sexually active.. I didn't insert my penis in his anus just sorta poked it unprotectedly.. I only started stressing about the risk. My penis seemed dry.. Please help me out. Thanks

So if he was a virgin then how could you get something he did not have?

Well then you would need to test as Botswana does have a high HIV rate. It is unlikely that you have HIV, but testing only way to know.

No I lived in Botswana when  I experimented.. He was 14.. We were both young and good friends that tries something silly. I only wanted to know the risks hence I didn't insert

So 7 years ago in Portugal you experimented?
If so then very very very unlikely that he was born with HIV. But if you feel like you must then test for HIV.
