Not sure if there is such a thing as immunity for STDs.
Okay, here's the situation. I used to have unprotected sex with my ex-fiancee, including anal sex which was unprotected. Then I had the same situation with another girl (except for the anal part). But I found out afterwards that she took drugs, like snorting coke and shooting up. After I found out through her roommate, I had to put an end to it. Of course, my initial reaction was to get checked. I waited about four weeks to get tested for STD/AIDs. Fortunately, the results came back negative. I'm not trying to say that I'm a sexual superman but I'm not sure if it is just luck. What do you think? Is there a possibility that I may have some sort of immunity to STDs?

Sorry, no immunity.
Plus, you can't know yet if you haven't picked up any STDs yet because of the incubation periods.

NO. Of course not.
You just got very lucky this time.
You can't go on thinking "ah, it's okay, i'll be fine" - cos that lack of thought and care is what gets people into these bad positions.
Remember, if you are unfortunate enough to get one, you can have it for the rest of your life - not everything can be cleared up with antibiotics.
I'm glad your tests came back clear, but you must play it safe from now on. Even consider having future partners checked.

It was just luck.
You don't even know that she had an STDs for you to have escaped catching.
There is no such thing as STD immunity. The ONLY exception is HPV, which a healthy well-nourished person's own system can often defeat. Other than that (which isn't an immunity, just a healthy immune system doing it's job well) there is no natural, or induced immunity for any of the big name STIs.
Please, don't count on luck in the future. It might run out.
Also, you should get tested again in six months. Four weeks is a decent amount of time for herpes and syphilis, but the HIV incubation period is 3 to 6 months. Get tested again to be certain.
