My partner's just told me he has HIV ·

Well, the chances are that this news will have come as a shock, regardless of whether you both had suspected it might be a possibility or not.

Maybe this is a new partner who has known about their status for a while. Or maybe he’s a long-term partner who has just found out he’s HIV-positive.

Either way, you are likely to have a number of questions running through your head:

  • Could he pass HIV on to you or could he have done so already?
  • Might you have passed it to him?
  • What will people think if they find out?
  • Do I still want to have a relationship with him?
  • Can we still have sex?
  • Am I a bad person if I dump him because of this?
  • How did he get HIV?
  • Will I have to care for him?

It is fine to have these thoughts; these questions are perfectly natural.

This section of the website will hopefully provide you with useful information and support, which will help you to begin to deal with this news.
