Glad to hear you are feeling good; that's excellent.
Dating? Proper dating or just sex? I hate dating, although my HIV status never seemed to get in the way of casual sex.

Yeah actual dating lol. Casual sex is fine but it can wear a bit thin after a while. I think it’s just the fear of rejection because of my status

Well, can't help you with the dating. I pretty much tell people upfront about HIV, and it's never been an issue. Rejection has happened to me for all sorts of other reasons, and I have also rejected people. Part of the game of finding someone you want to spend time with.
