It has been a while.
« on: July 21, 2008, 10:02:28 pm »
Hi everyone it has been awhile since I have been on here.. forgive me I need to vent.

Today I was on my Tagged page and this guy i don't know sends me a message saying"should I tell everyone about my health(HIV) not to be rude but shouldn't let everyone on the site so they can be safe"  My reply was thanks for your concern but I only have friends on here and then i asked would he feel better if I put a condom on the computer before I send or receive any messages. And I also let him know that it no ones business buy mine who tell or don't tell and it is not like it is a secret. That PISSED ME OFF!! royally  >:(

Hey TreDai, good to hear from you!  Sorry it's in this context though.  How did that guy even know about you being HIV+?  I wouldn't have appreciated that comment either.  I've never heard of "Tagged" but I'm assuming it's like Myspace.  If that's the case, then I suppose you don't really have much control over who sends you what.  Be the better person and just ignore it.  If you don't react, chances are he won't be back in touch.  Good luck.
  Luv,
Betty

Betty.

I do alot of work here in Columbus. I speak and volunteer.I am also used to break stereotypes here in the city. I found that doing good with it does me a lot of good. So if someone knows my status it is not a big deal, It was how he did it.

There are plenty of ignorant people out there. I'd have been annoyed too considering I don't have sex with anyone online.
