Thank you for your question.<\/p>\n
I am sorry to hear about your diagnosis. I hope you have support in terms of dealing with and coming to terms with your diagnosis. Please follow this\u00a0link<\/a> to i-Base Q&A and\u00a0this\u00a0link<\/a> to poz.com in the US that has good forums\u00a0for information\/questions about other people who are recently diagnosed.<\/p>\n It is possible for your boyfriend to test negative. This is because there are many couples who are in the same situation as you are. Where one partner tests HIV positive and the other tests negative, even though they have had sex without a condom over the years. This is because it is not every time that a negative person has unprotected sex with a positive person that they get infected. If your boyfriend really tested HIV negative, then he would not have infected you. It is possible therefore that you could have been infected before you met him.<\/p>\n Having said that though, and without knowing the full circumstances regarding your boyfriend’s test, it is difficult to comment on that. This is something you might find more useful discussing on a one to one, with a health adviser\/counsellor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I just found out that I am HIV positive.<\/p>\n My question is, being that my boyfriend cheats all the time, is it possible for him to test negative, and I positive?<\/p>\n Is it possible he gave it to me?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7,23,28,36],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5338","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-all-topics","category-hiv-transmission","category-newly-diagnosed","category-sero-different-couples"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5338","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5338"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5338\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":24853,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5338\/revisions\/24853"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5338"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5338"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5338"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
