Breaking Barriers: Living and Dating with HIV get easier with the Internet

It isn’t easy to find someone to date at the best of times; throw being HIV positive into the mix and it gets a whole lot more difficult. Even just getting through life gets a whole lot more complicated, but fortunately there are many helpful HIV support sites, and people, out there that can help you. Obviously the easiest way to get out there on the dating scene is to find a dating site specially dedicated to those who are HIV positive, but that isn’t the only option available to you.
Dating sites are a good place to start though, and there are many to
choose from. PositiveSingles.com and
HIVGay.com, as well as
PozMatch.com and
PozPersonals.com, are just some of the
options out there. Most of these are free to join, but require a premium
fee if you want to really unlock all the features; just browsing through
your search results will give you a good idea as to which site would be
best for you. On the whole, though, these sites make HIV gay dating
significantly easier; your status becomes less of a potential obstacle
here, with everyone already being on the same page. Then again, you
could also pursue dating scenes not targeted specifically for HIV
positive dating. There are negative men out there who would be willing
to date you, irrespective of status.
On the subject of HIV support sites, there are just as many out there as
there are sites for HIV gay dating, and a quick
web search will yield literally thousands upon thousands of results.
They vary in layout and intent from forums to Facebook pages, groups and
community websites, and give you the opportunity to connect with other
people going through the same things you are and ask questions, get
advice or even offer support of your own to others. Some HIV support
sites offer live chat to help you get in touch with people who can help
you and put you in touch with people who can offer counselling,
treatment and other types of support.
Being HIV positive, especially in terms of dating, is no longer as
difficult as it used to be. The internet means that there are a great
deal of HIV gay dating sites and HIV support sites, which can help make
dealing with what is undoubtedly a challenge significantly easier. The
sites for gay dating among HIV positive men can take the anxiety
out of dating, and the support sites can offer you help in many ways.
