What if you found out?

Could you still date or marry someone if you found out they were HIV Positive, had Herpes, or some other type of non-curable disease?

In your hypothetical situation, it sounds like you are finding out after you love the person already. In that case, I almost certainly would marry them. I would enjoy whatever time we have on earth together, because nobody knows when their time is up anyway.
If I already knew the person had a non-curable disease, it may be a little harder to fall for them so deeply knowing that in the first place, but it would not be impossible.
Love is love...and when it happens, you ,make it happen and go with it.

thanks! Report It

Why? You can be their friend but why waste your own life dating them?

I suppose you could if you want to take a chance of having these diseases yourself.

herpes, yes, vih, no, I wouldn't marry anyone with a mortal disease because I would know that it would be to hard for the both of us to face each others deaths.

no as any fluid transfer will give it to you.

Yeah, maybe not have sex with a person that had HIV, but herpes or something that won't kill you, sure.

maybe it would really depend on how much i truly care about the person, and how far i would be willing to go, and what they had

No. The same is true for me, I wouldn't expect someone to date, have sex, marry me if I found out I was HIV positive or had Hepatitis C.

of course you CAN, its up to you if you want the chance of getting that,,,if you truly love them and truly want to be with them then go ahead!

NO!

it'd be pretty tough, and I'd have to be pretty desperate.

definately not

No not at all

Yes, in fact they can be the most compassionate people to other health problems you may get in your older years, they know how to love unconditionally.

if we were together b4 he found out then yes but if not i don't think i would be able to marry that person or go in a relationship but i would most definitely be a friend until death ,because in that time is when ppl need love and friendship the most .

Not until u r also +ve for these tests.

Hello,

Love is blund and there are many people who have married people with hiv/herpes/ hepatitis..etc. It depends on the individual.

Think about it, if you are married and they cheated it's clear you would dumb them.

no, i dont want to die early.
