 sperm does not die the second it is outside.... that is completely untrue... sorry to say but it is very possible you are pregnant. why didn't he wash his hands off? Usually outside it lasts 2-3 hours so the anon post is dead wrong!
Stress can make your period late as well but 2 months is a long while... go get a preganacy test from a drugstore, or go to a clinic asap

 Totally disagree with that anon post, sorry if this worries you but yeah its possible. Sperm can easily survive a day in the open (so long as its not too cold) so it could've been on his finger, though the chances of getting pregnant from it is pretty low (still not zero!). I'm surprised its this late yet you haven't gotten a pregnancy test kit yet! Do that fast so you know whats happening

 Just so that there is no confusion and so you don't get the facts wrong from the anon poster below, here is a thread on an ob/gyn websites discussing the very thing you are talking about. There are several doctors that state it is possible to become pregnant in the way you've described:

You could also ask your doctor to verify what these physicians have stated so you know for the future.
Take care.

Hi Anon,
If he fingered you and sperm was on his finger, then yes, you could be pregnant. (But don't worry yet - you might not be. Sometimes stress can cause late periods and you could feel bloated b/c of pms, etc.)
You should go to your pharmacy and buy a pregnancy test or schedule a doctor appointment to be tested. Home pregnancy tests are very accurate - they measure the HCG levels in your urine. (HCG is a hormone that is produced only when a female is pregnant.)
If it turns out that you're pregnant, then you need to make a doctor appointment at your ob/gyn. It sounds like you are still young, so you will also need to tell your parents or someone close to you who can help you through this, okay? They may be disapponited, but they will most likely get over it and will be there for you. They will also be able to help you come to a decision on if you want to keep it, give it up for adoption, have an abortion, etc. Just remember the final decision is up to YOU though.
Don't worry - just take the pregnancy test. If you're not pregnant then great! If you are, you will have the support you need from your family. If you are afraid to tell them, maybe tell another adult who is close to you. They may be able to help you break the news so you feel more comfortable or else at least guide you.
Take care.
