Can you get HIV if someone spits on your forehead?

I was talking to a friend who spit while talking. The spit landed on my forehead. Surprised, I did not have a chance to wipe it before it apparently dried, though I fear it may have gotten into my eye somehow. Is there any possible risk for HIV transmission?

No.
HIV can only be contracted through three ways: sexual intercourse, sharing needles, or a blood transfusion with a victim of HIV.
Don't worry about it. :)

no i dont think so.
HIV transmission is only through an open cut or something. so as long as it didnt get it a gash/cut, i think youll be okay:]
do you know for sore that he had HIV?

Good lord you paranoid uneducated twit.
HIV virus is transmitted when bodily fluid mix. Blood transfusion or sexual contact.
Oh and it is not transmitted from breathing the same air or shaking hands.

i would see a doctor .............

Actually you can get HIV if there is a blood contact. so don't worry about it.
