If there was no penetration then the chances of getting HIV this way are slim to none.I wouldn't worry.If you cant let it go then get tested for your peace of mind.

Hi John,
Go to the free clinic. You can call information or look in the phone book for one.Once you get there just tell them you want to be tested for STDs or HIV or both. Its a simple mouth swab and takes 5 minutes.You should wait till 3 months after possible exposure. Glad to help.
