The short answer is: highly unlikely the other person will be affected.

The long answer:

Scientists and medical authorities agree that HIV does not survive wellin the environment, making the possibility of environmentaltransmission remote. CDC studies have showned that drying of even these high concentrationsof HIV reduces the number of infectious viruses by 90 to 99 percentwithin several hours. Since the HIV concentrations used in laboratorystudies are much higher than those actually found in blood or otherspecimens, drying of HIV- infected human blood or other body fluidsreduces the theoretical risk of environmental transmission to thatwhich has been observed--essentially zero.

Personal comment: Please stay safe and get tested regularly. That's the best way to protect you and others.

The only way to know for sure is to get a HIV test at your local hospital. Knowlege is the best weapon. So please get tested as soon as possible so you know for sure whether you're infected.
