What Is The Easiest Way To Get A Partner Of The Same Status

A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭

It has not been easy for me to get a partner of my status because of the too much stigma around here. So how can someone ready to settle and have a family get a partner?

That's a very tough question especially if you isolated only hiv-positive partners. I go into life with an open heart and open mind and with that I attract people of all shapes and sizes. That's how I found my current partner. Perhaps a different perspective ..to love ...
as opposed to categorizing a partner. Just my opinion. Much love sister🥰

I’ve struggled with this forever. I dated someone who wasnt poz and I felt like he didnt understand & the poz guys have more issues than readers digest.

I asked the same question I mean I would date someone not positive but then again the way people act towards hiv I don't even want to have go through the whole disclosure thing rather have some one that it's already understood

I've tried to 'keep it in the family' but my current partner, we've been together 17 months is not positive. We met through mutual connections and local political activists.
