You never had an exposure in any of the situations that you've provided.

Even though his cum was on the urethra of my penis?? could this not have been an exposure to infection? sorry to ask so many questions but i just need to feel at ease. thanks for your earlier reply.

HIV is unable to reproduce outside its living host (unlike many bacteria or fungi, which may do so under suitable conditions), except under laboratory conditions; therefore, it does not spread or maintain infectiousness outside its host.

HIV is transmitted by;
Unprotected penetrative anal and/or vaginal sex
Sharing works with other IV drug users
Mother to child
