We got it from a kind of monkeys called green monkeys.
They carry the virus inside them but are not infected by it.
it has been suggested that we probably got it from being bitten or eating monkey meat(it's very common in Africa)
There are of course people that believe the infection comes from
F*ckin the monkeys

In July 1981, the New York Times reported an outbreak of a rare form of cancer among gay men in New York and California, first referred to as the “gay cancer” but medically know as Kaposi Sarcoma. About the same time, Emergency Rooms in New York City began to see a rash of seemingly healthy young men presenting with fevers, flu like symptoms, and a pneumonia called Pneumocystis. About a year later, the CDC (Centers for Disease Control) link the illness to blood and coins the term AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome). In that first year over 1600 cases are diagnosed with close to 700 deaths.

This site has all of the information on the origin, myths and legends, and all other pertinent information. The true answer is that no one really knows where this virus started and how.
