Would you date someone who was HIV+?

I've thought about it too. I have come to the conclusion that I would, but only if it was someone who was really worth it. It is extra efort and stress just knowing how sick he or she could be.

 

i personally dont think i would becuase of the risk factor.

 

i dont think i could get serious with someone HIV+
i could be friends with them though

 

I would, I would do anything for the person I loved, even take the risk of getting HIV or any other disease

 

HIV+...well...I'm dating a girl who has cancer, and I must say that it's one of the most stressful things I've ever dealt with. I wouldn't really care about the transmission...but having to lose someone that I cared about a great deal would tear me up and make the days seem numbered.

If I loved them though...I would be with them, even if they were sick.

 

If I was really in love with the girl, I would.

 

yes

 

Love is based on spiritual and emotional connection, not physical. I would say yes, if that person was the right person. . .

 

I would like to say that I could, but honestly I don't know if I could.

I think it would depend on when I found out. If I found out right after I met the person, I likely would not. If I got to know the person first... It would be a hard decision, but I think I would.

 

Yes,I would.

 

I would, it would be hard knowing that there is no cure for HIV/AIDS as of yet but if they were worth it, then yes.

 

i'm not sure if i would because i don't think i could handle it if the person i was dateing died. i know it's selfish and probably makes me a horrible person but it's the truth.

 

It depends... If I had known him for a good while and really loved him before I found out, then there's a good chance. If I had just met him when I found out, I probably wouldn't.

 

no, not because of the risk of transmission, but the whole ordeal. It is still a serious illness to which there is no cure and it's painful for everyone especially to see your loved one fall away from u.

 

I would. I can't really explain why, and I understand the risks, but I would. Everyone here is saying, "not unless I really loved them"....but....how can you know that unless you date them at all?

 

no
I'm kinda ocd with germs so i would have a tough time

 

I don't know how I would feel about the fact that the person I was with would almost certainly die within my lifetime.

 

If I found the right person for me, and we really clicked, I would. I could go without sex for this person.

 

Exactly.
