welcome to healthcare magic
hi from the above history it is a very remote possibility of transmission through kissing unless both have some focus of bleed in the oral cavity and each others blood comes in contact with the area that is bleeding ,this all for active bleed.if your result is negative nothing to worry .ELISA is very specific test for hiv
thank you
