i was recently exposed to a large amount of vaginal fluid (clear watery type) i was rubbing her clit from the bottom with my penis when she expelled the fluid directly on my penis. there was no penetration but the fluid was directly shot on the head of my penis. i had an hiv test 1 and 4 months ago so the only possible risk i have is this indecent. am i at risk for hiv? we didnt have a condom so i thought this was the safe thing to do until she gushed. now im quite scared. the girl is in a high risk catagory by the way although i dont know her status.

There are no high risk girls , only high risk activity's . You didn't have a risk .
These are the risk factors for HIV ...
Sharing IV drug needles immediately after use.
Unprotected anal and vaginal sex.
Mother to child during or shortly after birth
Very specific healthcare situations.
The fluid a woman produces when sexually excited comes from the Bartholin's glands, located on either side of the vaginal opening. This lubricating fluid does not have any more hiv present than other bodily secretions such as saliva, sweat or tears. Saliva, sweat and tears are NOT infectious fluids.
ALTHOUGH YOU DO NOT NEED HIV TESTING AT THIS TIME for this incident , anyone who is sexually active should be having a full sexual health care check-up, including but not limited to hiv testing, at least once a year and more often if unprotected intercourse occurs.
If you aren't already having regular, routine check-ups, now is the time to start. As long as you make sure condoms are being used for intercourse, you can fully expect your routine hiv tests to return with negative results.
Don't forget to always get checked for all the other sexually transmitted infections as well, because they are MUCH easier to transmit than hiv. Some of the other STIs can be present with no obvious symptoms, so the only way to know for sure is to test.
Use condoms for anal or vaginal intercourse, correctly and consistently, and you will avoid hiv infection. It really is that simple!
