Oraquick false positive?

[Mranxiety12]

Hi,
I had unprotected sex with a girl who's status is unknown about 8 months ago. I had an oraquick test 30 days after, negative. At 6 weeks I had a blood test that searches for the virus itself rather than the antibodies, negative. I was told to check again after 6 months to make sure and I bought an oraquick today 8 months later and the result was negative after 20 minutes when I checked it. I left the test stick laying around and took a nap for a few hours And decided to check the stick again and there was a very faint line next to the T barely even noticeable. I got very nervous and went and bought another one which came out negative and was still negative after 40 minutes. Is this line something I should worry about or is it irrelevant due to the fact that it was after the time period was up? Someone please reassure me I just want to put this to rest.
Thank you.

You're welcome.
Many of us have gone through this. Start trusting your results and the real you will return.
Take care.

Unstable, unreliable = unpredictable.
You test for 20 minutes, read it, disregard it.
Both negative at 20 minutes.
Your anxiety and fear of what could have been is messing with you.
You tested conclusively negative.

Auto complete sucks at times.
Meant to say, "discard " it.

And it would be a clear line right ? This wasn't even a faint line I had to struggle to even see it but it was there

But why would another line show up later on one of them and not the other? If it was detected it would show up every time right?

I used oraquick before and the instructions are clear to discard your test after 20 minutes.
Even rapid blood tests should not be observed beyond the manufactures test time.
The reason is they become unstable after time which means not reliable.
Your tests are negative.
