Get checked.

Welcome to Healthcaremagic.
Hi, I am Dr Anshul Varshney , I have read your query in detail , I understand your concern.
It's not possible to say this way that you have contracted HIV or not.
You can't really say that the person with whom you had sex is HIV positive or not. Even a person with good character can have HIV infection, that a person can get from any exposures like blood transfusion, Injections.
So, the best way to be sure is to get your HIV test done.
This is my personal opinion based on details available here. If you still have any other query, you may please ask me.
Stay Healthy.

Brief Answer:
Get tested.

Detailed Answer:
Dear Friend.
If you have full faith then why you are worried. This means you are afraid and it's not a good idea to live in this fear that you might have contracted HIV.
So get tested to be sure.
As far as your query is concerned, if she doesn't has HIV you can't contract it from her.
Take care
