Fingers
I am male, an idiot and riddled with guilt. I have recently been in SE Asia and suffered a broken engagement to my (western) fiancee. On the night she left I got a bit drunk and ended up getting a bit drunk (in my despair) and took a girl home from a Western run hostess bar. I never had sexual intercourse but did engage in mutual masturbation with her. I had no fresh cuts on fingers..jus a 2 day old scratch. we kissed and I did used my finger to stimulate her.
Unfortuntely this happened on a couple of other nights too. At no point did my penis penetrate her although on 2 occasions I received a hand job from her...
I despair with my behaviour -I have never done this before---ever!!
What are my risks? I did speak to my GP and he said it was nil but is this true? A while afterwards I had a headache for a few days but I think that may have been due to the fact that I had just quit a 6 cups a day coffee habit!!
There are other factors in the epidemic in some African states. They are social, political, cultural, financial and not biological.
You didn't need to test but it's good you did to get a negative baseline. Keep safe.

I still took a test - it cost me money - NEGATIVE!
This is an amazing forum..but ultimately if you are a stress case like me..take the test!
Thanks for all input.I can live again!

Apologies if I wasted board time - It is probably paranoia on my part and maybe I had misconceptions. Its just with all the stuff you watch about Africa etc on the news I truly believed that HIV must be really easy to catch - clearly I was wrong.
Thanks anyway to everyone for responding - it has reassured me.

Are you serious?! Why are you bringing this here? There is absoulutely no risk in your encounter.

No risk at all, mutual masturbation has nothing to do with HIV transmission. Move on, no testing needed
There is no risk at all. So penis to vagina/anus contact = NO HIV RISK. Good thinking on not having actual intercourse. Move on man, youre fine. Dont let guilt get to you.
