I recently had someone reveal they were “HIV+” out of fear that someone else would tell me. Bro apprehensively told me and expected me to come out of my bag on him or respond in a ridiculous way based on his past experiences. I looked at him with the most perplexing expression on my face coupled with a strong side eye. I stood there baffled. Not as a result of what was revealed… but because somewhere along the way he forgot I’m well educated, I’ve worked in healthcare since I was 16 and no one’s diagnosis will ever make me view, treat, or fuck with them differently. I felt like I failed him despite me speaking candidly about “knowing your status”, taking precautions, and being tested regularly, but never thought those things would create an unsafe space between us.
“Anything else you need to say?” I asked.
“Nah…” he replied.
We stood silent for a few seconds just looking at each other. The awkward silence was intentional because I wanted to see how he’d adjust and if he was joking, but once I saw the uncertainty within him, I knew he wasn’t.
Told him, “Bet. It’s not a big deal, bro. This ain’t shit more than a reminder to stay on yo ass and tap in with you a lil more. Not toooo much cuz I don’t even like you… but I’ll make sure you’re taking care of yourself cuz I ain’t tryna yo people on me bout yo ugly ass 😂”.
We laughed and I continued to roast him to let the tension out of our exchange. I felt the respect level between us being lifted a few notches and his spirit stood at ease. He stood looking at me as he typically did with a goofy smirk on his face… a familiar look but uglier than usual! 😆
He cussed me out soooooo badly and I had no rebuttal… which is highly unusual for me, so I just let him have it.
We laughed in unison and continued talking as if the reveal never happened.
Note:
It’s insane to know people will weaponize someone’s status just to have something to talk about. It’s really the weakest shit ever and that’s why I go so hard for my people… even the ugly ones. Shout out to those living and thriving despite the hand they’ve been dealt. Rest In Peace to my little brother who died a couple of years ago from HIV/AIDS complications! 🤍🕊️
