there was no risk and no reason to get tested because of that....
hiv cannot be transfered in that manner

There's a number of reasons why you could never ever get HIV in this manner. Namely, HIV doesn't spread through HIV. Also, the heat from the cigar would most likely deactivate the virus. HIV is one of the weakest viruses out there. It doesn't survive well in open airm, and saliva, though it has trace amounts of the virus, doesn't have a high enough viral load to infect a human.
