Can't you just be friends?  Gay dudes can be friends and not have to fuck... or so I've heard. :hmm:

Yeah well. True. However - and this probably have no bearing on my decision, but anyway - how do people here feel about a situation like this? Do most people react like Valmy or is this reaction born out of ignorance? I hear people who live with HIV positive partners and unless you share needles or engage in unprotected anal or oral sex, you can't get it so is there really a fear of contracting HIV from your partner out of these situations?

Frankly I would not want a partner that I could not have unprotected sex with.  But it is a personal preference.  It is not exactly a noble thing but we all cannot be noble all the time.  After all we reject people as sexual partners for far more petty reasons than getting a horrible disease and do not feel bad about it.

That is what this is about right?  Not simply being friends with the guy?

Yeah, we will still be friends. But then, from experience, if you are into someone and they tell you that you should be just friends, it rarely ends up that way. I was on the receiving end once and told that once to someone - each time, it ended up in resentment.

Aren't you always on the receiving end?

I wonder what I would do if I tested HIV positive, to be honest. It's not such a death sentence these days, but it is still shitty.

Well yeah getting herpes is not a death sentence either but I sure am not having sex with somebody who has it.

Ok. That's what I was looking for. Could you elaborate? I admit I am quite ignorant and the internet/google is not the best place to look for the information as it can be so contradictory. You probably know more about the issue/are better educated than other people who have posted.

Well I don't suffer from hypochondria. :P  But I guess I figure HIV is pretty prevalent in this community and I always take the precautions that I can.  However, given that many positive individuals don't state that they are positive, it seems odd to me to sleep with the liars but not with the honest ones.  The risk is still there even if not admitted. 

That said though, if a person isn't comfortable with sleeping with people they know to have HIV (/have a relationship with someone with a eventually debilitating disease), they should be free to make that choice as well.  I'd suggest, as has been said on here, simply to let him know the truth. It won't be nice and easy, but it is what it is.

So, Martinus wants back into TBR, yet still won't apologize?

:lol:
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

Considering about 40-60% of the adult populace has herpes, you probably already had. It is the most common cause of cervix cancer (and throat and anus cancer for those of us into these things).

Maybe but I have not had sex with that many people :blush:

You and me can have a mini-TBR through PMs. It will be like the kids' zoo but instead of little cuddly animals it will have little personal questions and revelations. :)
