OK here’s the deal,
There are a number of options open to you but what is of paramount importance if you are concerned about your HIV status is that you establish exactly what it is.
The simplest option is to simply approach you old boyfriend and ask him whether he was HIV positive when you were together. From what you say it seems he has been recently diagnosed and as such it is very likely he knows exactly the circumstances behind his infection. It is also very likely he knows precisely when he was infected. If he was not HIV positive until after your relationship with him, then it stands to reason that you are also not HIV positive.
If for whatever reason you are not too keen on doing this, or for some reason he will not tell you,or you simply don’t trust him, then the other option is to go for a blood test yourself.
It is clear that his last two girlfriends did one or both of these things, otherwise they would not know for certain their HIV status
For your own peace of mind, you really should find out your HIV status, one way or the other. Please , don’t worry too much, the odds are stacked in your favor.
Take care Kevin
