Knowing your HIV status is the wise thing to do. It is hard to tell someone you love that you have HIV/AIDS but it is worth it. People with HIV/AIDS need a lot of care and support. People around you can only give you this if you tell them you have got the virus. Getting the HIV test together with your partner is a sure way to let your partner know about your HIV status. It does not matter who brought HIV/AIDS, the most important thing is to know whether you have got it so you can live a positive life together and get treatment to live a longer and healthier life with HIV.
