On dating and beyond
by The Chemistry Guy
Been into dates the past months - it didn't work well. Or should I say, I never worked out.
Eye opener:
Regardless if you're HIV free or acquired it, dating and relationships will still be dependent on you and the other party.
I thought dating a comrade of the same sero-status will give an assurance that everything will work fine - It's not.
Scene 1:
Dating someone who's negative (assuming) is quite a challenge, all is well.. you act normal as if you don't have any condition, date for a couple of weeks or months, being attached emotionally, you confess your status, he (your date) was in shock, eventually he refused and now... you're depressed and rejected.
Scene 2:
You met a co-sero positive guy, decided to meet, dated for while, he doesn't like you or I don't like him and the dating stop. No communication after. Superficiality can come to anyone.
Scene 3:
You met a co-sero positive guy, date for a while, it went well, you like each other and voila! happily ever after.
Scene 4:
You met this negative guy (assuming), dated for a while, you like him and he likes you, you confess your sero-status, he chose to be with you (lucky you) and go happily ever after.
Experienced scene 2, two months in a row, and it might go to 3 peat. I'll make entries for each of them.

the best thing to do is choose good friends who you can trust and open things up.. :) cheers! you're not alone.
potential partner... im afraid of the rejection and be known by someone to be pos
Looking forward to scene 3 or maybe 4 =)
I honestly do not know how to deal with the situation.
In fact, I've grown indifferent to dating, which is sad, I brush the thought aside. Parang it's in the realm of fantasy muna, while I figure things out.
i was referring to dating... i never got into any relationship yet after i found out my status... although they say there is a need to disclose to

like what i said, choose your friends (who to disclose with). all starts with being friends. :)
Experienced scene 2. The difference is we still communicate. Or at least I try.
Looking forward to scene 3 or maybe 4 =)
good for you! not for me though.. lol
Oh my, ever since my diagnosis, dating hasn't really crossed my mind.

there's no harm in trying, the only thing is there would be more consequences than what was used to be. :)
am trying scene 3. =D or maybe 4?
balita ko nga. lol
I've tried Scene 2 and am currently experiencing Scene 4. I agree with what you said about dating and relationships though. It's a two-way street
buti ka pa.. swerte ka. pakilala mo kaya samen..
Long shot na nga ang love e, pero parang longer shot ang dating. hahaha!
But like 2ndlease, I am having second thoughts now. Even on dating. True that there are lot of consequences, lot more than usual.
