CAN U FALL IN LOVE WITH A HIV POSITIVE PERSON (Page 11)

You're right but there are risks.  This from the Center For Disease Control, regarding an HIV+ mother:

Between 120,000 to 160,000 women in the United States are infected with HIV, the virus that causes AIDS. Nearly one out of four of these women don’t know they have HIV. This puts them at high risk of passing the virus to their babies.

Women can pass HIV to their babies during pregnancy, while the baby is being delivered, or through Bosom -feeding. Mother-to-child transmission is the most common way children become infected with HIV. Nearly all AIDS cases in U.S. children are because of mother-to-child transmission.

Not all women who have HIV will give it to their children. Without treatment or Bosom feeding about 25% (1 in 4) of pregnant women with HIV will transmit the virus to their babies. Fortunately, a group of drugs called antiretrovirals works well in stopping HIV transmission. If women take these drugs before and during birth, and their babies are given drugs after birth, HIV transmission is reduced from 25% to less than 2% (fewer than 2 in 100). Regularly testing pregnant women for HIV and providing antiretroviral drugs if they are infected has dramatically reduced the number of children born with HIV. In 1992, 855 children in the U.S. developed AIDS, but in 2005 only 57 children developed AIDS - a decline of 93%.
----------------

This is me again.  The above speaks to places where the HIV-infected mother has access to the drug regimen.  What about all those places would she would not?  If the father is the HIV+ one, then it stands to reason that in the mother receiving his sperm to become pregnant she runs the risk of catching HIV.  Bottom line is it's a crapshoot.

It's really a mind thing and I'll speak for myself. I don't think I could fall in love nor even have sex with a girl who I know is HIV positive. Now, if we were in relationships before I found out I might still love her but I gotta take precautions not to contact the dreaded disease. Give it a thought guys........Its really difficult to know someone is HIV positive and still go after them except if they are as rich as Magic Johnson.

To me i think that is a legal way of cometting succide without the law of the country arresting the man!for muder attempt.But one the other hand ,there is a level of relatonship one can get with one can decide to marry an HIV infected person.When a couple or married people reach that level,life without the partner can be meaniless.All thier life will be centerd on themselves.That is what is call'Pure love,not real love'.
                 This can only happen when both partern remove self and Ego from thier lifes.
                Well,it hard but it do happen

Since being in love and having segxwal intercourse are two different things, so I'd say why not? For us to marry each other, the lady must care about my protection and those of the baby (if we plan to have one).
