For it is when the Scientists figure out the "cause" (what makes it tick) for the HIV virus is when a cure will be found.

Stage 1: They have made it possible to surpress the reproduction of the virus.

I wonder just as well what that "cause" is for others to act the way that they do when life can be lived much easier without the extra stress.

I wonder about what I am going to have for dinner tonight. I wonder about if I meet a good looking guy will my 9 inches be big enough for him. I wonder about weather or not the new porn I bought will get me excited enough to blow a load across the room or just on my chest. Damn I forgot that I am HIV+. LOL Anyway back to dinner.

Indyguy:There certainly is a variety for your dinner choice. The best choice is your favorite. As far as meeting that special guy...you never know when or where or who that might be. It seems that you are quite confident with your manhood and this will reflect back to whomever you are to be with. As far as porn, it is your choice as to what appeases to your appetite.

Marco23: The best way to fit a wig is when you are bald so that it will fit properly. You can go to her fan club site to see what they are talking about.

Bear60: Taxes are a situation that we all tend to deal with. Turbo Tax is an excellent idea to mange your affairs when it comes to your time for paying your taxes and see what you can and cannot write off.

ACinKC:You are defintiely a golden child when it comes to the things you desire. That is totaly a mixture of excitement to add to the spice of the relationship. Can you just imagine the passion that will move through the room while all of this is going on?

Thomas: Doing goes a long way with many aspects that we all are to deal with.

Corey: The answer to your question is whatever you want it to be. Your favorite is the best choice.

David:Sex and all ofthe projects that are going on. Sounds like there is a good balance that has been established in order to maintain your inner self at all levels.

I think about meth the drug that I was using when I "decided" it would be a good idea to get HIV.  I think about how it is destroying the gay community in larger cities.  I think about what it was like before I'd never done meth, and wish I could go back to those times.

I think about how sad it is that I can't get a date as is, but if I add the party and play line to my profile, I have all the "attention" I can handle and then some.

For me HIV is 3 pills once a day and blood tests every few months, knock on wood nothing changes much.  Given a choice I'd rather be free of all traces of the scourge of meth in the gay community than my own HIV.

CJWAUS: Indeed METH is a substance that has altered the face of our reality in our communities accross America. For the record, it is a Death sentence that is wating to happen. Indeed a solution lies within the person themselves. It is unfortunate that it sometimes takes something on a drastic level to "shake up" that individual in order to regain their awareness of reality vs. illusion to get back on their road to recovery.

When the voice cries out for HELP that is when they want to HELP themselves as this is where the recovery process will start within them. There are a lot of emotional wounds that occur from this and it will take time for those wounds to heal within that particular individual.

HIV - accept it, understand it, communicate it, and maintain it with the effective medical solutions that are available today for us all.

I think about the difficulty of finding a bf or somesuch, a lot - and it has been vexing me mightily.  I also have been thinking a lot about HIV and my future.  That crystal ball has been cloudy as well.  Maybe I should find somethinig else to think about.

Personally I think the more one fixates on the act of finding a boyfriend, the less likely it is you will find one.  All of mine have just fallen in my lap in the most unlikely of circumstances... elevators, subway trains, etc.

Then again, I've been single now for five years now so maybe I should start fixating on it.

HIV - is a genuine concern that we all have for our future. It is when we do what is necessary in order to maintain what we can while making other adjustments in our lives to gain and to sustain better health.
