I actually had an HIV+ brutha that lives in STL try and get with me. Dude was nice looking and everything and was the type I usually go for and we had good conversations but when he disclosed his status I tell you it scared the shit out of me. I am a case manager and you would think I would be open minded since I work and deal with all kinds of people. The whole HIV thing with the guy just made me distant with dude from then on. We talk every now and then but conversations are short and distant.Rickyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01551776178329369949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9864284.post-1110657098949171392005-03-12T13:51:00.000-06:002005-03-12T13:51:00.000-06:00I can understand how the brotha feels about you. ...I can understand how the brotha feels about you. I have been reading your blog for a little of a month now and I don't even know you and i'm feeling you. Your writing has done that to me. <BR/><BR/>But on the other subject, HIV has scared the hell out of me too. It's gotten to the point that I have given up sex until I am in a stable, loving relationship. But isn't that the way that it's supposed to be?<BR/><BR/>Chuck-Chicago, ILAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
