I’m glad you’re checking out the specifics of HIV transmission. It is definitely possible for you to get HIV/AIDS without him ejaculating inside you. Withdrawal is better than ejaculating without condom protection, but very unreliable as a means of protection from HIV - or pregnancy, by the way. The pre-ejaculatory fluid (“pre-cum”) of an HIV positive man contains the virus that leads to AIDS, thus, he can pass HIV without ejaculating. Also, few men have the ability to reliably control when they ejaculate, which means that he’ll probably cum without meaning to sooner or later.
To be protected from HIV, the barrier of a latex condom is important in all forms of intercourse (vaginal, anal, or mouth to penis). And to be used properly, the condom must be rolled onto the erect penis before any contact is made. Proper, consistent use of latex condoms can eliminate or greatly reduce the possibility of infection with HIV and other STD.
