Dear Aurax:
Peace. Sexually Transmitted Infections (STI) or Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STD) vary in their ability to be passed from person to person. Herpes and Hepatitis are more easily transmitted during receptive oral sex than is HIV. Most risk occurs along a continuum, and low risk (as you describe for HIV in your situation) does not equate to "no" risk. Use of a condom reduces your risk, but does not eliminate the risk.
You would do well to visit a counseling and testing site, research sexual health online at such sites as this, www.thebody.com, and better inform yourself on health risks and ways to reduce same.
I do wish you the best.
Sincerely,
Terry
