Answer
Dear Mullani:

Peace.  HIV is transmitted between adults by exposure to the blood, semen, or vaginal secretions of an infected person coming into direct contact with another person.  

What you describe puts you at no HIV risk.  

Please visit www.avert.org for more specifics on how HIV is transmitted and how it is not.

Best to you and yours.

Terry
