Lucky Bitch Radio with Wanda Wisdom

Nicolas,
The person, whoever he is, that you slept with most likely did not know he was + when you two hooked up. I know this for almost certainty, because I recently tested + this year. I won’t go into the roller coaster ride that I experienced prior to, and after my diagnosis. But what I can tell you is that when you are given + results, the next thing that the counselor does is to have you VOLUNTARILY go through your recent history. I stress ‘voluntarily’, because it is just that. You don’t have to go through this step if you don’t want to. In my case, I did not ask them to contact anyone because I knew that I could not track down the potential source of my infection because of some really random irresponsible behaviour on my part that, unfortunately, was to some degree beyone my control, NOR did I feel that I placed any others at risk. But for anyone else, I can attest to this being a situation where you just want to isolate and not disclose to anyone what has transpired. It is still true that in this day and age you WILL be discriminated against to the harshest degree for disclosing this information. You should feel fortunate that you chose to hook up with someone who, when given the option, felt that it was necessary for YOU to be notified, anonymously (that is the only way that they provide this service), for your own good. Don’t think for a second that this person doesn’t ‘have the balls to call you’, because that just is not true. This person VOLUNTARILY put you on the list to be notified. As far as I’m concerned, just doing that takes some big balls. You appear to be doing everything right, as far as safer sex goes, so bravo for that. If you truly were ‘playing safe’, you really should not have been as worried as you were, so I am a bit concerned about your internal conflict with regard to that. I just hope that you can try to put yourself in the other person’s shoes for a moment and try to understand that he did what he was able to do to protect you, as much as he was emotionally able to, after the fact. And this suggestion is coming from someone who intimately knows about being in this kind of situation. I hope this helps you work through your experience and that you can continue to grow and live your life to the fullest - regardless of whatever challenges you are faced with regarding sexuality and healthy relationships. And consider for a second, knowing what you know about me - would you ever date me?
Peace!

Really enjoyed this show!
Disagree a bit with the above comments, it took an amount of balls to circuitously tell thingy about the test results, but others demonserably tell people straight to their face.
