Overheard in the Women's Forum
"[My boyfriend seems to have] withdrawn from me in a sexual way. At times I get mad because he gave me the virus. Then I focus on the positive side of life (we still have each other), so I continue and try to be the same person I was before knowing I had the virus. Kissing has stopped also. I love him dearly and I know he loves me too. He always checks up on me, making sure I am taking my meds, vitamins, that I'm eating and rested. I just feel like he might be seeing me as a big disease and is keeping his distance at times. Is this normal in an HIV relationship?"
