-
- Skip the singles scene, its real tough to meet someone
- worth dating in a bar or a club...I find I meet a lot of
- really nice and cool people by doing a play at a theatre
- ot your school or community...
- Join a club you are interested in!

-
- I personally would not be insulted at all, rather I would be grateful
- that you are concerned about your health and your partners!
- Some might get offended though!
- But...being tested is still no guarentee...sometimes it can
- take years for the HIV virus to show up in a lab test...
- Therefore no matter what...PRACTICE SAFE SEX!
