Is There Any Chances Of Getting HIV With Anal Sex?

Hello, i had sex with a female 3 times between January and February of this year. We wore condoms each time, but one of the times we wanted to try anal sex, so i had her put on anal ease and lubricate. I tried to penetrate with the condom on, but it was sliding off so i took it off and i was starting to lose erection. I tried for a few minutes but due to tightness, we gave up trying. I never penetrated the anus at all, but my penis did touch the opening due to me trying to penetrate. After that, i just wiped and put on another condom and we continued vaginal sex. Yesterday she messaged me saying she has Hiv/ aids, and im still waiting on her to get back with me. But i want to know would i still get it even if we didnt have anal sex or exchanged body fluids from that, just by my penis touching her anus? I am very shocked and concerned. Please help. Thanks.

Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
I can understand your concern.

Anal sex is having more risk for HIV as there is more chances of injuries during penetration and due to lack of lubrication. The chances are more for exchange of body fluids. But as you had lost your erection during your anal sex and not able to penetrate through anus. So you have no risk for HIV.
Just by touching the anus with the tip of penis has only negligible risk for HIV. Anyhow a HIV test is preferable to rule out the possibility of HIV and you can get relieved from mental tension.
