I was drinking water and i accidentally poured it on my face mask. if my mask got wet, is it gonna make all the germs on the opposite side of the mask go through the mask ?

There's little or no risk of any infection from anything like this. But why worry?? If it's a disposable mask, discard it and start a new one. If it's a cloth mask, put it through the laundry, which should be done every few days anyway.
