This is a Delicate Issue. Speaking "Hyperthetically" and i stress "Hyperthetically"
If you knew someone who was knowingly HIV+ and out there night after night picking up strangers, not telling them and NOT using protection. Would you feel an obligation to tell someone? Even if you know that person and love them to bits?
Yes, I would feel obliged to tell the whole world. Put up poster stickers around the neighbourhood. People who are HIV+ and know about it, yet refuse to use protection should be taken to town's square and put out of their misery. That's a seriousely effed up person you "love to pieces".
UNBELIEVABLE how selfish some people can really be!!! It's definietly illegal here in Australia and also punishable by imprisonment. This person doesn't even deserve to have a friend try and talk to them. REPORT THEM to the authorities IMMEDIATELY before anyone else has to suffer!
Dogs, certainly you realize that people in here have no emotional investment to how you love your friend ... as with all other emotional threads that get started in here, and then the creator of the thread gets upset about callous responses, or ones that aren't supportive to the feelings of the thread creator ...... I mean, our feelings aren't invested in this, so, all of us can just say .. fuck 'em (terrible pun).
Empathy is something that nearly everybody struggles with, even if they think they are a compassionate person ... trick is, you have to give examples to where the other person can relate in order to evoke this empathy to get supportive responses to your feelings.
We see this all the time in here ... a person will make a thread, and girls will read it the issue, attach their own life experiences to it as though it's relative to what they've experienced and bam !! You have emotional support. If you notice, those who don't have an attachment to it by means of inserting their own emotional pain to the situation won't even comment on the issue, and will high-jack.
To turn a person in in whom you LOVE is extremely difficult ... look at how many fathers out there who sexually molested their daughters are still running free because these women today have this attachment to 'Daddy' ... they cannot bear to approach it.
Look at how many people will watch their own family members treat their children wrong .. and do NOTHING to help the child.
Look at the Artist and the Starving Dog .. people watched in horror, and did NOTHING to help the dog because abusing an animal is too close to their heart to do anything except ignore, in hopes it will go away.
To you ... you have emotional investment in this man .. you love him to bits. It's easy for responsers in here to say fuck that, fuck how you feel about him .. tell the world .. because they don't love this man.
It's hard, I know .. the very first time I turned in someone I loved for child abuse was gut wrenching, because it was my own brother, my own flesh and blood .. and it was fucking hard as hell to do. But, the pain of it cannot outwiegh the aftermath if you don't take action. And that's what I had to tell myself.
You can do it, and it's because you love ... it's because you love, Dogs. Apparantly this man cannot love himself enough right now to know what is right or wrong .. so, you can love him enough for him, by guiding him to do right.
Don't tell anyone else, don't tell the world .. don't betray him like that, or you will lose him.
He is lost .... help him to be found.
There's another side to this, also .... if he's spreading this virus to other wo/men .... then it means that these people are ALSO participating in unsafe sex willingly.
It's possible that they already have diseases.
Night after night, picking up strangers to fuck ... if these people are fucking him, then they are pretty nasty, don't you think? So, what's the point in telling those people ... do you realy think they care? If they cared, they woudn't let this strange man fuck them without protection, now would they?
So, this spreading of a virus isn't just about him, you know. You can't rape the willing, dog.
Your mission is to help him find himself ... he's probably fucking scard out of his mind about being HIV positive, and doesn't know what his self worth is anylonger.
so, help him .... he's worth something to you, right?
Love is always enough ... he is in need of love right now.
