Confused

Hi. Long story short, yesterday my boyfriend was wearing underwear and athletic shorts, and I was wearing the same. We were making out and started dry humping. When he left I felt that my underwear was wet as well as part of my (thin) shorts, near the leg opening. Was this from me, or was it from him? And the fact that was wet doesn't pose a pregnancy risk right? I am kind of scared because idk if my own wetness couls have made it that far on my shorts. But either way it doesnt seem like sperm could travel through at least 3-4 layers, even if part of my shorts got pushed aside. I get so anxious about this, I wake up in the morning in a panic, worried i could be pregnant, especially because my period app said that my last fertile day of the month was yesterday. I had held off from this kind of stuff for a few weeks and felt ready to try again but I guess I just need to stop completely because I always get scared for irrational reasons.

Please do not post this kind of question. If you are seeing this text, and your thread is locked, it is because you have posted this kind of question.

We CAN and WILL talk about things like:
