If you had sex with someone and were wearing a condom but fear your partner may have rubbed against exposed skin at the base of your penis, could HIV get into your bloodstream if vaginal secretions get on the exposed skin?

I have a friend who is HIV positive and having unprotected sex with a partner who is also HIV positive. Could her partner change her status from HIV to AIDS? I told her he could change her chemical makeup and therefore alter her condition but not his. Could you explain this so I could give her a medical opinion?

Once during a party, a woman took my penis in her mouth and started sucking it. I was very scared and within a minute I pushed her back and went away. I got myself tested for HIV immediately the day after and tested negative. Since someone told me it's safer to test after six months, I had another test seven months after the incident. Again, I tested negative. Can you tell me whether I should feel safe now without worrying what happened at that party?
