STD from giving oral

Hi, thank you in advance for any help you can give. I am a male. I recently and regretfully gave oral sex to another male. I did not swallow. I do not know his medical history, or if he has any STI's. He did not wear a condom. He had no obvious signs of STI on his penis. This has only happened one time
I also have a female companion whom I do not want to put at risk. Here are my questions:  

1) should I get an STI tests or tests? If so which ones?
2) Should I refrain from kissing my female partner to negate any chance of transmission of an STI?
3) Should I wait a certain period of time to see if any symptoms appear to resume a regular sex life with her?
Thank you for your help

Please correct me if my logic is wrong. I have done a lot of reading about this today.

1) If I did obtain an STI it was more than likely gono, The odds contracting that (even from unprotected oral with an infected male) are less than getting hit by lightining.
2) The only part of my body that I could possibly have gono is the mucas membranes in my throat, since that is all that touched his penis, or any part of his body
3) It would be impossible to pass the gono to a female partner by kissing, vaginal sex, and vaginal oral sex

With this line of thinking I am only going to get tested if I have symptoms, since I believe the only way I can transmit the gono would be through giving another man oral sex, which will never willingly happen again.
Please, please correct me if I am wrong

Hi, if you did not give him a "deep throat" oral odds you contracted things like gono or chlamydia pretty much impossible as need to make contact with the mucus membranes to be passed.
If he did not have any penis sores the risk for contracting herpes and syphilis quite low as well.
Since your concerned about passing something to your partner test for the below for their protection:

1. herpes 3 months
2. syphilis 6 weeks
3. gono and chlamydia 5 days.

You would need test results before being intimate with your mate.
