I have dated someone HIV+ and the relationship waswnt any different than my other relationships. I appreciate if someone is upfront about it and lets me make that decision with that knowledge. Getting to know someone as a person and not a condition is truely more important. I dont want to deny myself from being with a genuine lovable person because of something like HIV. I know how it is transmitted and know how to protect myself and my partner. Always use protection even oral sex.

i really dnt think i could im not lookin down on them who do cause sumtimes it anit there fault there anit no they other person did but me i really couldnt cause i cant take no change
I am HIV negative but I would date someone HIV positive I used to work with people who were HIV positive and it was a beautiful experience that I would love to do again. They need love just like anybody else. I am celibate but I do know that they like taking precautions on certain things. Sometimes God has you in a person's life for a reason.
wow sorry i just sorry i saw this video, a year later, but i am a gay man that is neg but i would for sure date and love a poz guy. of course we would have to be careful, but i would let love take its course not hiv. i would still love his heart and still love him;
If someone had the decency to tell me I would still keep in contact with them and show compassion but i doubt i could date them. Its just too risky - wouldn't be with anyone with herpes let alone HIV.
@DUBZiiE WOW, i recently cancelled an internet relationship-almost a marriage thing when this girl told me she has herpes!!(in July) I'm african and shes american... when i saw the google pics of herpes, i was DONE!
took the slowest way of ending things between us and its finally OVER now :-)

I am not HIV positive but I would accept someone who is pos if they tell me because for them to be honest with me and care about my health and give me a choice takes alot courage. I can not say for sure if I can be intimate with that person because that is a huge step but everything will work itself out.

My partner is HIV positive. He let me know after our first week of dating. I respect him for honesty. We been together for 6 weeks and we havent had sex yet. We decided to wait until three months to decide if we wanr ro take it to the next level. In the mean time we cuddle and sometimes do mutual masturbation . If we do have sex we'll use protection for intercourse and oral sex.

date/ stick with the person that gave it to you in the first place, or only date other people with the same situation. Hell No I wouldn't date someone with Hiv/aids. I also wouldn't date a person that points loaded or unloaded guns at me. I wouldn't date a person that handle knives outside of the kitchen. All is considered dangerous even if it was reckless or unintentional. I don't date bad drivers. I basically won't date anyone that can't contribute to my well being.
SEX is very dangerous young people I rather tell you the truth then sugar coat anything. If you are having sex use protection be safe because of the danger of sex and STD's. Young women need to value and respect themselves no young person should be dead before 25 over sex. If you are young and still immature sex is not for you education is learning about the world around you is. If a man really loves you as he claim you will be his "Wife" someone he can protect, respect and treat like a Queen.
I feel bad for people living with HIV as it is a terrible virus, but I do not think I would date someone with it. Because then, if I decided to be intimate with the person, there would always be the chance I might contract it too.
It's selfish for an HIV infected person to expect to date a non HIV positive person and for them to be okay with it. They have groups for people who have HIV like HIV positive dating. Always tell your partner if you're HIV positive before having sex.
I would REALLY REALLY REALLY have to be in love with them and no intercourse would be involved only with B.O.B. (my battery operated boyfriend...hell he can watch even do it for me) if they love me in return they would not want me to be @ risk of being infected.....REALLY
I would because if you love someone thta's all that matters. YOu can die from anything. And for the pOZ not telling I can understand thier fear of exposing themselves. Just stay safe and if an accident occurs don't panic pray and find a way to tell them to get tested too. idk it's a touchy subject and everybody has their own opinion on the subject. POZ people are not monsters just Unlucky! NEED LOVE2!! no one wants to die alone.
i feel if you love that person truly you will of course protect yourself but don't treat them any different. but yes i would if i love them but i would make sure we protect each other durring sex. i like your videos i will support you much agape' love to you brother.
@cybic2k excellent video a lot of dudes need the insight and its a question me and my crew always talk about. it's like is in in the same category of somene who was a dime piece and then ends up with burns all over their body. would ya still feel the same?not feel the same? but date etc. the burned victim may not want to date anymore ya feel me?
@nolagemini Your right. Haven't thought of it that way before. Only thing is a burn victim wears their scars on the outside.. while people with venereal or other diseases are on the insides.. most of the time hidden. I believe in this world, everyone has someone they're destine to meet. You just can't get to consumed in depression.. you might let the one your meant to be with walk out of your life.
@truerobert80 I totally agree with your response. Safe sex is ALWAYS the best sex. If u find out your partner is HIV positive..i would definitely pray about it.. then get yourself tested. Then take required measures to protect yourself if you decide to stay in the relationship. P.S: sorry for the late reply, lol.
Wassup fellas. I just found out that I too am HIV +. I contracted from a female that knew she had the virus but never said anything. The sad thing was that even if she would have been honest with me, I would have stayed with her because I really liked her, but now I can't stand her because she didn't say anything. So yes, I would date a poz person. Fellas everything that glitter aint gold. Protect ya self at all times
@Truefriend2u I'm sorry to hear man.. I hope you are doing well. I wish she would've divulged that information to you first, so you could've decided if you wanted to pursue the relationship further, knowing her status. & your right.. everything that glitters ain't gold. True Statement. Hope all is well man. =-)
HIV positive persons are still humans too. They therefore still deserve to be loved. The problem is there are some persons who are HIV positive and dont tell their partners about it then have sexual relationships and thus it spreads. I would honestly say I would date someone HIV positive only if they tell me from day 1. I dont discriminate on people because you never know it could have been you. They are people too. Love. Respect. Live Up.
Thank you for just being you. I just did a video about something close to what your talking about, I would luv for you to take sometime and check it out. Im Forresta and im now a fan of yours.ENjoy and talk to you soon.
I've been poz for over 10 years. I am always upfront at the very beginning of a relationship about my status because it's much harder to find out that the other person is NOT ok with it after you've invested yourself emotionally with them. It may be that you could keep it from them until you've "won them over with love", but it's not likely to happen (at least that's been my experience).
IM 16 and HIV positive its hard i don't know to go about the situation myself. i have tried but i always have that fear of rejection.i would tell my PARTNER ONLY IF I HAVE KNOWN THEM LONG ENOUGH. so no one...
I understand your fear of rejection, but do you really want to be with someone that is so shallow that they reject you for your HIV status? That type of person would likely leave you if you got cancer too, or any life threatening illness for that matter. That's not love.
@MONIQUE5150 I can't say that i l know what your going through.. i just know how junior / high school was. Fear of anyone finding out about your status. Like i said in my video, i believe you don't have to tell ANYONE your status, unless your going to be intimate with them OR in any situation where the transfer of blood is taking place (medical treatment, fight, etc). Just be safe..ok. May God Guide you through your journey. =-)
This is a really hard question because whether we admit it or not.. most people in society are "scared" f hiv. Myself included. It would take me a long while before I dated someone with hiv... what I mean is.. just getting to know them... loving them for who they are and maybe trying a relationship without intamacy.
yes i will date an hiv poz person, we all have slept with one whether we know it or not however, your chances of contracting the disease is very slim if the person is on medication, its the person's that dont know they have it and not on meds that are the high risk of spreading it and not know just be educated thats all
This is a touchy subject. One really wouldn't know how they'd react to the situation until you're faced with it. Love pops up in the strangest places sometimes. The percentages for black men who are hiv+ is so high that you probably have already dated someone who was but didn't know it. Truthfully, I've developed a phobia regarding sex. I just don't trust anyone and I love my life and am scared to compromise it for a few hours of pleasure. complicated and intimacy shouldn't be.
this reminds me of the episode in Noah's arc with Ricky not wanting to be with Juanito because of HIV but coming to realize that he does love Juanito and wants to be with him
im not gonna make a long message like some of the guys here...all im gonna say is if u really like that person why not...but do take precautions like dont have sex!! still be intimate but no sex...cause u wouldnt want HIV to spread to ur body :)
I would date someone or at least get to know the person with HIV, but sex is an issue of conflict. I think it would be easier for people with HIV to date other with the disease.
Dgrave008, pple should feel free to date whom ever but to address date someone else with the illness...? so you would rTHER DATE JUST BECUZ OF THAT COMMON BOND , that is not rite and to call it a disease, yes it is but to just think of yoursef as being positve and see how you r treated.
I am a hiv+ person, I am always up front with people about my status, I really dont have an issue i have met people who except and those who don't. What we need to learn is, just because we run from those who are open about there status doesnt mean that you we are protecting ourselves from the virus, anyone can say that they are not pos. Look at it like this, 5 out of 10 people are most likely to be pos, knowingly or unknowingly! Its something to think about people.
Slimmboy07, this is so true. I wish people would wake up & realize that. The stats from the CDC (Center for Disease Control) about how many people are HIV+ are staggering...especially amongst black people & gay black men. People need 2 stop being fearful of those that are honest w/ them too. U are so right when u say that ANYONE can say they are HIV- ... when they could in fact, be POSITIVE 4 the virus & know it, but lie & have, or attempt 2 have unprotected sex (oral, anal, or vaginal)! A mess!
@Jibjub80 THis is slimmboy! just on a different page! I was reffering to the black msm community (men sleeping with men) And trust me from the field of work i've done, which is HIV prevention, education, counseling and testing, and also through the people that I know, regardless of the statistics, 5 out of 10 black gay men that you encounter are HIV POZ, depending, on where you live!
i was totally in love with my best friend who is poz. i looked past and told him that we would take the appropriate precautions so that i wouldnt catch it. sometimes its true.. love has no limits.. i get it all the time (the questions) i even have it on my myspace page my view...
U r one sexy bottom! LOL naw foreal. i'm feelin ur assertiveness. soothin voice. Uh uh um. my mouth is dripping LOLLLO.
I wouldn't date sumone wit HIV because intimacy is an important part of a relationship. Intimacy is a product of being in love n if i can't be intimate wit whom i love then i might as while consider as a friend than a lover
@arian513 Actually, no it doesn't. All i'm doing is asking a question whether YOU would date someone HIV positive. If yes or no, explain Why. Thats all!! =-P
In the "LIFE" I think we all may have dated someone or even have had intimate encounters with someone who is HIV positive. Many people are not honest nor do they know their status so it's really kind of a mute question. It so important to practice safe sex for such a time as this because it's mad crazy out there dude. I like the fact that u posed this question so that those who see it can always be aware of protecting themselves. The statistics r stagering as to the infection rate among GBM
i dnt really kno what im tryna say..lol..but ya....i do see it being very hard 4 most ppl to accept that in a relationship......an another thing...some ppl wouldn't accept it bcuz...they feel even if they use a condom they'd still catch it.....so they feel that there would b no sex in the realtionship..so that's what would turn them away..but ya that's my 2 cents on the subject....btw i'm a new subscriber to ur site...
this is a very interesting question....in my opinion..i believe that most of the ppl who choose not to date a person HIV positive are just what u sed..not as knowledgeable of the disease.....
I mean I would, its just to a certain extint to where I would go with that person (You know what I mean) But I'll would like to get to know that person and all that but when/ if it get to where we were gonna have sex TO BE HONEST I dont think I could do it b/c I would be thinking too hard on if that person is fully protected from transferring me the disease. I wouldnt be able to enjoy the moment without thinking about that cause. I mean Im trying to hurt nobody Im just being REAL
We need to remember that diseases are part of the human experience. We wouldnt be human without facing some kind of disease. As far as hiv goes, it isn't going anywhere anytime soon so if someone tells you upfront they are hiv+ , then you should realize he is a strong person not controlled by fear or the fear of rejection. If he tells you about his status, you should know this is a person you can trust. My advice would be to go on at least one date and get to know him.
Sorry for not answering tjhe question the way YOU want me to. But For me, I think I can date someone who is HIV+. Being intimate is a different subject. If I am going to make that next step, then we need to abstinent & use that time getting to know each other. (I dont want to place an actual date or time limit on how long that will be But I would roughly say 8 months - 1 yr). if you stick around, then we can practice safe sex & take it to the next step.
I was trying to post a video respose, but my camera is jacked up.
I'm hiv & sometimes it is hard finding people to date, who will accept it. The person just doesn't have knowlege of their just ignorant. I believe if yr honest & forthfront, It's up to the person If they want to date you or not.
people who date people that are HIV+ & knw about it but dnt care bcuz the person's cute or sexy, r unbelievable theyre risking theyre life if the condom breaks and everyone they sleep with until they find out their own results, if u love somebody u both are only with each other and very cautious then thats upto the individual, but people need to stop spreading this disease around and watch who you let into ur pants bcuz theres soo many ways dna can mix
Second if I was in love with someone and they opened up to me yes I can date that individual but I DONT KNOW about being intimate...that i cant gaurantee will occurr...personally I wouldnt treat them any different but these days u cant gamble with your life
Your Right!! Its the "KNOW" factor that comes into play.. No one wants to know. I think Martin Lawrence discribed it best (I dont know exact wording). He would rather walk down the street & Pass out.. laying in his death bed, than to have preconceived knowledge of Being infected with HIV virus or ultimately AIDS..
To be honest...these days you never know.. Whetherer you are aware someone is HIV + or not...you gotta treat them as such....let me explain. Most ppl are infected and refuse to "know" cause they are too scared so you never know who your dealing with. !
After deep consideration I think I would have to say yes in most cases. If the individual told me he was positive after I got to know him, I would like to think I am mature enough to look beyond the title. I am well versed enough on preventing myself and others, so hopefully I would not fall into the sterotype of never being able to date anyone who is HIV+
This question is not easily answered. I wouldnt exactly say I would look beyond the title.. I would basically find out what the title means. If & when you decide to pursue a relationship.. At least then you would know how to protect yourself..
the CDC reports old stats @ 46% in our black gay community as positive so that's half. we have to pretty much treat everybody like they are positive to protect ourselves. let this be the year that those numbers start to decrease. and yes i would date somebody positive cause i know how to protect myself.
Pt.2, I would want the person 2 tell me b4 it got sexual becuz just like friends, i like pp 2 be open with me about who they are and be str8 up honest with me,so like that kinda maked me more cautious to date becuz itz like if i date sumone and it were to get to physical altercation sexually it would make me want to ask them to get tested and on top of that i would get tested also to prove to them im not HIV positive, but thatz really scary becuz not everyone does that everytime they date sumone
I understand your point of view in all Three messages, lol. jk.
If you were to ask me this question a couple years ago.. i would Definitely say NO! Ive really grown over the years & its something to think about.. (you may come across this issue at some point in your life).
Nvncyble said it best, Re-teach yourself to love differently & the way that you love would be different"
Ok ille say this, ive never dated, but at the same thing i have my expectations and requiements for what a person must be about inorder for me to date them, thatz one thing, another which brings up HIV Positive question would be, hmmm No I wouldnt date them, id be friends with them inorder to protect myself from catching a deadly virus, i would hav to protect myself becu im young andi want to continue to date, dating is about meeting new ppl and potentially finding ur sole mate..TO BE CONTINUED
Awesome Deon! Human relationships are complicated. And if the two people have each other's best interests at heart 4 REAL they will make it work. Everybody concerned has to get educated.
Life is about risks, All you can do is decrease risks.
I saw on the news this morning that the HIV rate in DC is WORSE than the HIV rate in West Africa. That worries me.
Yup it's in the news all weekend. Look on the internet. Washington DC has a higher rate of HIV infection than West Africa. OMG! If this doesn't get my ass to start posting vids I don't know what will! This angers me, it makes me sad but most of all I am bewildered. ~Calvin~
This is such a great vid dude!!! I can't answer that question cause I'm negative, but there are ways that you can still date & have relationships while being positive. There's somebody for everybody!!!
I dont think i have ever dated someone who was hiv+ and i dont think that i could. I say that because i couldnt be with someone and be in "fear" of my life everytime something happens/ a slip up.I think i could date someone who is hiv+ if i really loved them, like my boyfriend. Now that i think about it i really dont know anymore lol. And i say that because i know that if i had it i would want someone to love me.
I have dated someone HIV+ and its not easy its hard...especially when they catch a cold and your wondering omg will he die from it or when his White blood cells count drops and now has AIDS.
The hardest part is through the whole process to me is watching the one you love die not instantly , but slowly.
Still to this day I will date a guy who is positive I am just very selective and wise and cautious about it.
GREAT VIDEO..Your right like when your HIV + it must be hard to meet someone really like them but are afraid to tell them you HIV + like will they turn you down..not give u another chance??
The question is almost...Are you willing to put your life & health on the line for LOVE
I think people should be upfront about it before any sexual contact like people should let that other person know as soon as you have a REAL CONVERSATION.
IDK..I Honestly dont think i could but love is strong who knows
This is a great VIDEO and I to have to share a Video with u... go to my channel and look for an HIV video that i done last year. You're making good points...
Would I Date someone whos hiv positive..
Sorry but no.... not riskin that shit.

@cybic2k excellent video a lot of dudes need the insight and its a question me and my crew always talk about. it's like is in in the same category of somene who was a dime piece and then ends up with burns all over their body. would ya still feel the same?not feel the same? but date etc. the burned victim may not want to date anymore ya feel me?
nolagemini 1 year ago
@nolagemini Your right. Haven't thought of it that way before. Only thing is a burn victim wears their scars on the outside.. while people with venereal or other diseases are on the insides.. most of the time hidden. I believe in this world, everyone has someone they're destine to meet. You just can't get to consumed in depression.. you might let the one your meant to be with walk out of your life.

@truerobert80 I totally agree with your response. Safe sex is ALWAYS the best sex. If u find out your partner is HIV positive..i would definitely pray about it.. then get yourself tested. Then take required measures to protect yourself if you decide to stay in the relationship. P.S: sorry for the late reply, lol.

Wassup fellas. I just found out that I too am HIV +. I contracted from a female that knew she had the virus but never said anything. The sad thing was that even if she would have been honest with me, I would have stayed with her because I really liked her, but now I can't stand her because she didn't say anything. So yes, I would date a poz person. Fellas everything that glitter aint gold. Protect ya self at all times

@Truefriend2u I'm sorry to hear man.. I hope you are doing well. I wish she would've divulged that information to you first, so you could've decided if you wanted to pursue the relationship further, knowing her status. & your right.. everything that glitters ain't gold. True Statement. Hope all is well man. =-)

HIV positive persons are still humans too. They therefore still deserve to be loved. The problem is there are some persons who are HIV positive and dont tell their partners about it then have sexual relationships and thus it spreads. I would honestly say I would date someone HIV positive only if they tell me from day 1. I dont discriminate on people because you never know it could have been you. They are people too. Love. Respect. Live Up.

I've been poz for over 10 years. I am always upfront at the very beginning of a relationship about my status because it's much harder to find out that the other person is NOT ok with it after you've invested yourself emotionally with them. It may be that you could keep it from them until you've "won them over with love", but it's not likely to happen (at least that's been my experience).

IM 16 and HIV positive its hard i don't know to go about the situation myself. i have tried but i always have that fear of rejection.i would tell my PARTNER ONLY IF I HAVE KNOWN THEM LONG ENOUGH. so no one...
MONIQUE5150 2 years ago
I understand your fear of rejection, but do you really want to be with someone that is so shallow that they reject you for your HIV status? That type of person would likely leave you if you got cancer too, or any life threatening illness for that matter. That's not love.
reeakins 2 years ago
@MONIQUE5150 I can't say that i l know what your going through.. i just know how junior / high school was. Fear of anyone finding out about your status. Like i said in my video, i believe you don't have to tell ANYONE your status, unless your going to be intimate with them OR in any situation where the transfer of blood is taking place (medical treatment, fight, etc). Just be safe..ok. May God Guide you through your journey. =-)

This is a really hard question because whether we admit it or not.. most people in society are "scared" f hiv. Myself included. It would take me a long while before I dated someone with hiv... what I mean is.. just getting to know them... loving them for who they are and maybe trying a relationship without intamacy.
xLilLx21 2 years ago
yes i will date an hiv poz person, we all have slept with one whether we know it or not however, your chances of contracting the disease is very slim if the person is on medication, its the person's that dont know they have it and not on meds that are the high risk of spreading it and not know just be educated thats all
ATLANTABLACKMALE 2 years ago
This is a touchy subject. One really wouldn't know how they'd react to the situation until you're faced with it. Love pops up in the strangest places sometimes. The percentages for black men who are hiv+ is so high that you probably have already dated someone who was but didn't know it. Truthfully, I've developed a phobia regarding sex. I just don't trust anyone and I love my life and am scared to compromise it for a few hours of pleasure. complicated and intimacy shouldn't be.

I would date someone or at least get to know the person with HIV, but sex is an issue of conflict. I think it would be easier for people with HIV to date other with the disease.

Dgrave008, pple should feel free to date whom ever but to address date someone else with the illness...? so you would rTHER DATE JUST BECUZ OF THAT COMMON BOND , that is not rite and to call it a disease, yes it is but to just think of yoursef as being positve and see how you r treated.

I am a hiv+ person, I am always up front with people about my status, I really dont have an issue i have met people who except and those who don't. What we need to learn is, just because we run from those who are open about there status doesnt mean that you we are protecting ourselves from the virus, anyone can say that they are not pos. Look at it like this, 5 out of 10 people are most likely to be pos, knowingly or unknowingly! Its something to think about people.
slimmboy07 2 years ago 9
Slimmboy07, this is so true. I wish people would wake up & realize that. The stats from the CDC (Center for Disease Control) about how many people are HIV+ are staggering...especially amongst black people & gay black men. People need 2 stop being fearful of those that are honest w/ them too. U are so right when u say that ANYONE can say they are HIV- ... when they could in fact, be POSITIVE 4 the virus & know it, but lie & have, or attempt 2 have unprotected sex (oral, anal, or vaginal)! A mess!

In the "LIFE" I think we all may have dated someone or even have had intimate encounters with someone who is HIV positive. Many people are not honest nor do they know their status so it's really kind of a mute question. It so important to practice safe sex for such a time as this because it's mad crazy out there dude. I like the fact that u posed this question so that those who see it can always be aware of protecting themselves. The statistics r stagering as to the infection rate among GBM

i dnt really kno what im tryna say..lol..but ya....i do see it being very hard 4 most ppl to accept that in a relationship......an another thing...some ppl wouldn't accept it bcuz...they feel even if they use a condom they'd still catch it.....so they feel that there would b no sex in the realtionship..so that's what would turn them away..but ya that's my 2 cents on the subject....btw i'm a new subscriber to ur site...

I mean I would, its just to a certain extint to where I would go with that person (You know what I mean) But I'll would like to get to know that person and all that but when/ if it get to where we were gonna have sex TO BE HONEST I dont think I could do it b/c I would be thinking too hard on if that person is fully protected from transferring me the disease. I wouldnt be able to enjoy the moment without thinking about that cause. I mean Im trying to hurt nobody Im just being REAL

We need to remember that diseases are part of the human experience. We wouldnt be human without facing some kind of disease. As far as hiv goes, it isn't going anywhere anytime soon so if someone tells you upfront they are hiv+ , then you should realize he is a strong person not controlled by fear or the fear of rejection. If he tells you about his status, you should know this is a person you can trust. My advice would be to go on at least one date and get to know him.

btl1271 2 years ago
Sorry for not answering tjhe question the way YOU want me to. But For me, I think I can date someone who is HIV+. Being intimate is a different subject. If I am going to make that next step, then we need to abstinent & use that time getting to know each other. (I dont want to place an actual date or time limit on how long that will be But I would roughly say 8 months - 1 yr). if you stick around, then we can practice safe sex & take it to the next step.

people who date people that are HIV+ & knw about it but dnt care bcuz the person's cute or sexy, r unbelievable theyre risking theyre life if the condom breaks and everyone they sleep with until they find out their own results, if u love somebody u both are only with each other and very cautious then thats upto the individual, but people need to stop spreading this disease around and watch who you let into ur pants bcuz theres soo many ways dna can mix

Your Right!! Its the "KNOW" factor that comes into play.. No one wants to know. I think Martin Lawrence discribed it best (I dont know exact wording).

To be honest...these days you never know.. Whetherer you are aware someone is HIV + or not...you gotta treat them as such....let me explain. Most ppl are infected and refuse to "know" cause they are too scared so you never know who your dealing with. !
Foreverelite 2 years ago 2
Wow, that was deep.
After deep consideration I think I would have to say yes in most cases. If the individual told me he was positive after I got to know him, I would like to think I am mature enough to look beyond the title. I am well versed enough on preventing myself and others, so hopefully I would not fall into the sterotype of never being able to date anyone who is HIV+

the CDC reports old stats @ 46% in our black gay community as positive so that's half. we have to pretty much treat everybody like they are positive to protect ourselves. let this be the year that those numbers start to decrease. and yes i would date somebody positive cause i know how to protect myself.

Pt.2, I would want the person 2 tell me b4 it got sexual becuz just like friends, i like pp 2 be open with me about who they are and be str8 up honest with me,so like that kinda maked me more cautious to date becuz itz like if i date sumone and it were to get to physical altercation sexually it would make me want to ask them to get tested and on top of that i would get tested also to prove to them im not HIV positive, but thatz really scary becuz not everyone does that everytime they date sumone

I have dated someone HIV+ and its not easy its hard...especially when they catch a cold and your wondering omg will he die from it or when his White blood cells count drops and now has AIDS.
The hardest part is through the whole process to me is watching the one you love die not instantly , but slowly.
Still to this day I will date a guy who is positive I am just very selective and wise and cautious about it.

The question is almost...Are you willing to put your life & health on the line for LOVE
I think people should be upfront about it before any sexual contact like people should let that other person know as soon as you have a REAL CONVERSATION.
IDK..I Honestly dont think i could but love is strong who knows
