If Your Partner Gave You HIV Would You Kill Them?

One of the relatives says 'She did not deserve this'. I would argue he didn't deserve it either. A pair of charmers.

She didn't give him HIV, she tlold him she was HIV positive after they had unprotected sex, huge difference.

[joggerjayne]

I might kill him, yes.

Not a PC answer, but yep ...

[craft1948]

er JJ it was her that was HIV..................

[joggerjayne]

Yes?

[naomi24]

I don't see the difference - she knew she was infected and didn't tell him - but no, I wouldn't kill him.

[NOX]

From the article she was trying to tell him it was not that bad, so she might have had what they call 'an undetectable viral load' which would mean she COULDN'T pass it on to him.

In the Western world.....contracting HIV is not the death-sentence it once was.

Perhaps he was was of those numerous chaps with an 'allergy' to latex?

[grffindoor2011]

If HIV was the killer it once was and a partner did infect me with HIV without telling me and she knew she had it. I would make her life hell, but eventually would kill her, probably when I was close to death.

[jackthehat]

I'd hope to use my final days in a more productive manner......

[naomi24]

Me too, Jack. I don't 'do' revenge, and in this instance it would you no good. You're still going to die.

[Mick-Talbot]

The honest answer is 'I don't know' I do know I wouldn't be very happy.

AOG must have let this one slip through the net.

@jackthehat

I think if I were in that situation, doing that would be very productive for me.

@naomi24 Revenge would be very apt.

Each to their own. I had a neighbour who was a bit of a pain to everyone. When we had the hose pipe ban, out he was at 11am hosing. I reported him. That gave me great satisfaction of revenge for his constant complaining about a BBQ and 'why do you have to start your car at 6am' moaning.

[jackthehat]

If you want to live out your last little while on earth being bitter and twisted and leaving an entirely negative legacy for your loved ones to carry forwards, I suppose that is your prerogative.

Personally, I'd be wanting to create happy memories.

[naomi24]

Have to agree with Jack. Revenge is spiteful. I'd rather die in peace with a clear conscience.

[Mamyalynne]

No

[queenofmean]

I might want to kill them but I wouldn't.
I don't think she deserved to be killed but at the same time I don't think he deserved not to be told.

[Kerosene]

W-e-e-e-lllllllll, I don't think she'd be top of my Chrimble card list anymore, that's for sure.

[grffindoor2011]

@jackthehat - I wouldn't be interested in any legacy. Justice would be sweeter than being bitter and twisted.

@naomi24 - Oh I would have a clear conscience.

Neither of you would. That's your choice. If capital punishment were around then, I would take my punishment with a smile on my face.

Fortunately, as only around 5000 people were infected last year in the uk, I don't think I have too much to worry about.

[starone]

I think she was very foolish to tell him. If it was not that bad he might not have caught it from her and she could have blustered it out somehow. I know I sound awful but if I was in that position - which I know I never will be at my age - I would have lied forever about it. They were probably both promiscuous anyway, so how could anyone tell who gave what to whom.

[Mick-Talbot]

They were probably both promiscuous anyway



Possibly not as promiscuous as you are presumptuous.
