Hi Elsat,
For starters, there's no way for us to diagnose what's going on via the internet. More than that, if your partner has not been sexually active with anyone else and is not a drug user who shares needles (or had a mother who is HIV positive who could have passed it to him) there's not a place he could have picked it up.
There are two things you can do to take care of yourself going forward. One is to stop googling information about HIV. That's keeping your brain locked in a panic mode. The second is that if you're going to be sexual again, you need to use a condom, since going without one if clearly making you really stressed out.

And you to whom adversity has dealt the final blow/with smiling bastards lying to you everywhere you go/turn to and put out all your strength of arm and heart and brain/and like the Mary Ellen Carter rise again.
