HIV+ for 2yrs. My first relationship since help??
      #99980 - 06/16/04 10:56 AM

I've know that I am HIV+ for 2 years. My boyfriend dumped me when I found out. Finally found someone that I can date and is okay with me being +. My question is for other mixed couples. We have been having protected sex. Recently we started showering together as he has stayed over more often. I love this intimacy we share. I just want to know if other think this is safe (i.e. showering together). In particular I love to masturbate myself and then masturbate him and play with his anus. This excites him. Is this safe? (We are not using condoms in the shower doing these things).

Most of the sexual behaviors (or intimacy behaviors) you are engaging in are NOT risky re HIV infection...EXCEPT you wouldprobably want to wash your hands after you masturbate yourself so you don't pass vaginal "mucous" which can contain HIVwoul. HIV can only be infected through intercourse, oral or anal sex. Good for you for practicing safe sex! I am HIV+, last relationship my b/f
would NOT use condoms, he said he was probably already exposed to HIV, and hated them. Luckily he never contracted it. My current b/f and I practice safe sex (there IS a difference in condoms too....the ones we get from the local health department are the BEST!!!) as possible, I have found intimacy behaviors and other types of sex can be very satisfying also, we just have to go beyond the "norms". Good luck to you in your fight against HIV, and glad you are enjoying your life! :)

Looks like my short term disability claim will be denied. I was hoping to have that income until my disability retirement is approved and my retirement $ is released. Luckily, I have a place to live, etc. but NO income. Having to borrow $, and knowing I won't have an income for at LEAST 2 more months...and during the summer, is getting me down. I don't even have an "emergency" fund for OTC meds, etc. that I need anymore. Plus found out my CD4 count dropped from 590 to 388 in approx 6 months! Doctor looks at % and not concerned, but labs show low level resistance (been on PI's since 1997), he does NOT specialize in HIV so I don't trust his opinion 100%. Just need some encouragement.

I assume you are a guy. Everything sounds safe. Just make sure that your cum does not touch his anus. If it doesn't it should be safe...remember it is the semen that can transmit HIV. So enjoy!
