Can hiv be transmitted by spitting beer in the eye?

[Spectracular]

I was in a pub with a friend and we sat at table with 2 guys. One of them used to take a drugs before but they seemed like normal. We talked with them and one of them took a drink from beer and started to laugh and he spitted the beer on me and in my eye. I have OCD so i am alarmed, now i cant stop thinking about that and i have anxiety. It has been 3 weeks, i feel dizzy and have sometimes a headache, i am changing meds for my OCD, so it is not helping with that at all :) So i want to ask, is this a risk situation or i can be calm and start to work on getting back life. Because i think i will go crazy with this.

Have to note, the guy didnt take any drugs before we met, i meant he used to take them years ago when he was younger. We met them in pub and joined their table, just to play darts and have fun, but since then i am obsessed. No wonder when i suffer from OCD, but actually i did manage my fear before, but now after i started to change my meds it came back like nothing. So thats why i am asking, thank you for your help.

No. Everyone on the planet has had someone cough on them with the germs entering the eye, mouth or nostrils.
And because that virus lives for weeks in air and can also infect in saliva that is how we all get colds.

HIV is inactivated outside the human body and in saliva or else you would read front page news about a baby getting HIV from accidental spit..

Mr AnxiousNoMore, I need one explanation form you. I know, that what you told me is legit, I have a question about blood in spit. I know that saliva cant transmit hiv, because there are enzymes that eliminates it. But how about blood? I have read that even if there is a blood in saliva it doesnt matter but why and is there any measure of how much blood in saliva matter and how much doesnt? In my case it was a mix from beer and saliva and whateverbbbut the spit was pretty big, because as you know when someoen has full mouth of beer or some other liquid it and spit it out it is not just a small spit. So I need to somehow get this thing, otherwise my brain isnt actually in state of accepting just "it is okay". I need to answer this, and i get you will propably be disturbed by it so i am very sorry, but thats just how OCD people work. I can assure myself after i truly believe i can let it go. Basically i know the main part is on me, but if i have any doubt about this, it miggght be a problem. And i need answer to this thing, which is disturbing me pretty much. If you can tell or explain me, i would be very thankful to you. I hope you understand inner struggle in ones OCD mind, so you dont get angry, but basically i hope you help me with this. Thank you very much.
