Did your sex life change after your diagnosis?
Did you feel the same about sex afterwards?
Did you have better sex or worse sex?

I was married to a bitch and somehow years later i got drunk with a guy i new as a kid and we had sex,that was my first time with a man and got hiv and hept-B from him, 34 years ago, theDR said i had 6 -9 months to live so i left my wife and figured i had a lot to find out and went sex crazy, safely, and had the best time of my life, until i got shingles in 88 dam those were painful, but then in 91 i had to stop working , my belly swelled up and it felt like two bobcats fighting in my guts after that i spend almost the rest of the90s in an out of the hospital, with fullblown aids, cancer,toxoplasmosis,colapsed lung'meningitis, even passed for a minute or two but the sex got put on hold for almost 20 years and now i'm so old no one wants me but my dogs keep me happy and my storybook prince, overseas helps, other than that i stay busy out side from the time my dogs wake me up till dark working in my yard or my veg. garden, so life is the best of what you make it, hiv to me is nothing more than an ant bite, just a little sting now an then, my DR tells me all the time that i'll never die from hiv, but then i have a remarkable DR

after diagnosis I put that part of my life away as the rejection of the uninformed makes "enlightening" them as to the safety issue a constant problem. Also I find more and more men are indifferent and almost want to be infected. This means you are still responsible to inform your partner of your status to protect yourself from imprisonment.

It really is a bummer especially if you have a high sex drive ! A person can only watch so many videos if you know what I mean, sex is like food to me I’d love it at least twice a day
