You've almost certainly been exposed though. You've just had a sufficient immune response to the viral particles that entered your system that they haven't been able to get a foothold and replicate to a detectable level.
My whole family got it, but I felt fine other than the barest hint of a headache. Tested negative for days after they'd all been confirmed, and finally got a postive test well after any hint of symptoms had gone.
Like you, I don't get sick much generally. From viruses at least, bacterial or fungal infections are a different story.
