Thank you for your question.<\/p>\n
Of course you can have a normal relationship with someone who has HIV. There are probably millions of couples globally who are currently in relationships with positive people whilst remaining negative themselves.<\/p>\n
If your partner is on treatment and taking it correctly then he should look forward to a near normal life expectancy and a good quality of life. If he is on treatment he won’t develop AIDS.<\/p>\n
It is also possible for you to have negative children. For more information please follow this link<\/a>. You might also find it useful to read the Swiss Statement<\/a> which states that if someone is stable on HIV treatment then the likelihood of them transmitting the virus to their partner \u00a0is \u201cnegligible\u201d and \u201csimilar to risks of daily life\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I am a HIV negative woman, who has fallen in love with an HIV positive man.
