Relax, and rest assured that you have no chance of becoming pregnant from the activity you have described to me. Sperm are very fragile outside of the body and would have the impossible task of swimming through cloth to get to your vagina, then get to your uterus! Sperm have difficulty in moving through pubic hair, let alone underwear, or especially sweat pants! It sounds like you are being as safe as you can with your boyfriend without becoming sexually active, and I applaud you both for this. There are many ways to be intimate with our partners without engaging in intercourse, and exploring each others bodies is a great way to be sexual and safe. I'm sure you will be more relieved when you get your period, though! Try not to be nervous, it sounds like everything is just fine.
