Anyone HIV negative living with or married to someone HIV+?How easy is it? How is your sex and everyday life?


We are both very fit and very healthy people. Don't want children. Just the chance at a happy life together.

I am HIV + and my boyfriend isnt.. we life the same... i have my bad days and good days he does not judge me..he helps me get through it... we have sex... but we use protection... and we are very careful..you will live happy if you set your mind to it and dont use the HIV against you other... because that is something that the person didnt chose .. yes they could of been more careful but stuff happens and some people are mean and give it to other just because they have it and they dont care... But today in this world living with HIV is really not as bad as people say it is... We are human just like everyone else... and nothing is going to change that.......

I am HIV+ and my husband is hiv-. we didn't find out until I went in to donate blood. I donate blood every month and one month it came back HIV+. I have never stepped out side of my marriage and i don't know how i conducted the virus Report It

Personally i would be scared shltless living with someone that had a disease that could possibly kill me....I'm not saying that you cant be happy with him/her or that you cant love them...but me, personally....scared...(sorry if that sounded mean)

Yes i am living with a HIV+ gf.

And the answer is very simple we don't have sex.

Our everyday life is simple enough, we share a bed when we sleep, she has to take her meds in the morning, i just have to be careful when she has a cut or is bleeding not to get any on me.
It doesnt affect what we do together, we still do things a normal couple do and we still love each other.

IMO it's just like a relationship with a HIV- person. You just have to be a little bit more careful

hope this helps :-)

i guess it all depends on how much you love the person, and much of a risk you are going to take i personally just couldnt

I'm sure its not easy but the best thing you can do is always be there for the person. Make sure that they are looking after themselves health wise. If you have a cold, try to avoid them so the other person doesn't get sick. Make sure you always eat healthily and excercise. You can still have sex, just make sure you always use a condom. Your life can be just as happy as anyone elses. I really respect you for staying with the person. If you love them you will give them all the support they need. People with HIV do not deserve to be stigmatised, they just have an illness.. You wouldn't stigmatise or treat someone with cancer differently, why should HIV be any different?
Good luck to the both of you. May you receive many happy blessings.

I have been HIV+ now for 13 years, the person that lives with me has a hard time to deal with it. he is not scared to get it or anything like that. the problem that he has is that i go threw a lot of mood changes, i have bad days and good days and it is hard for him to understand why i go threw my changes, as it is for me to understand why he don't understand how i feel sometime. the meds that i take everyday is harder to deal with for me then the virus because of all the side effects, most of the time you just have to deal with it and go on with your life.

We've been doing it for five years now, with three kids. Of course we have to be careful and there's always questions, these are sometimes worse than the desease. We take our meds, have never had a problem. Our narrow minded in-laws almost died but, who cares, we don't live with them. Be careful, take meds when suppose to. Let your heart lead you.

If I lived with an HIV+ person there would be NO sex life. I hear and read the info that eating or drinking after them is OK. But I still would not do it. I would wash everything in clorox. It is still a relatively new disease and I just don't trust all the news. Better safe than sorry. m

Hey, check out www.thebody.com. There is a forum on there about "Magnetic couples" (One + and one -). Hope that helps!

no but my friend is and he is a boy. were close but obviously you have yo be careful when it comes to hygiene. like they say you cant catch it from the body, but what happens if you come into contact with bodily fluids? never evr have unprotected sex. but other than that they are the exact same as you and i, why should you discriminate?

Should have used a condom
