Hi and welcome to HCM. Thanks for the query.
it is possible that it was not transmissed but this is not likely. clamydia can be symptmatic or not so it is possible that neither of you have smymptoms,but you both should have testing and start treatment if there is evidence of clamcydia infection. He may not have symptoms and this is reason why he said he is negative for clamydia. only tests can prove it.
Wish you good health. Regards
