Can I get HIV this way?

I'm just wondering because of this...

Okay so a couple weeks ago. I was peeing at a friends house(This was during a Bible Study), and a little bit got on the toilet seat. So I took a some toilet paper to wipe it off. But it looked like there was some blood or something red on the toilet seat, not my own. I'm not sure if the blood or what ever it was dry or not. I might have had a cut on the area or not, but I don't remember. Anyway, I'm worried. And the freaking site that I posted the original question is freaking down so I can't go back and freaking check. anyway, Could the small bit of blood gone though the toilet paper and gotten into a cut if there was one and get hiv from it? It was .25 to .5 inch in diameter when the blood was dried... I'd guess it was even smaller in diameter when it was wet.

I think you are way to paranoid buddy. But that is just my opinion.

You probably could, if whoever the blood belonged to was positive. But I think it's very unlikely. Relax. I drive my car msot days and could die in a crash, but don't. I come down the stairs every day and could break my neck falling down them. Maybe I have a freckle on my back somewhere I've never noticed and have skin cancer as we speak. Do what you can, live your life well, and trust God to take care of you. The rest will be what it is and you can deal with stuff as it arises. If you wanna be sure, talk to ur gp. But don't spend ur time stressing about it. :)
