Why Are You Dating If You Have HIV?

Recently I was asked why am I dating if I have HIV. It took me some time to process this comment and the ignorance in which it stemmed.

As some background information, I recently joined FB dating and made the decision to be honest in my bio. It specifically states "I am HIV+ and undetectable. If you're not sure what that means swipe right or head to google." I guess this particular individual chose to swipe right with the intention of asking me why I am dating if I am HIV positive.

Why not! First you are bold and beautiful. You are a human and being HIV+ does not define you as a great and wonderfully made human by God.
Love you sister!

Am deeply impressed by your boldness & honesty. I must confess that, am encouraged by your action. Being Hiv+ isn't an end to enjoy life to theaximum. Yes!, my dear sister move forward confidently to the next level.
