When Tuelo was young, she liked to have a lot of fun. After dating a few men, she finds out that she is HIV positive. Now, at 33, Tuelo says she has found the love she was searching for before. In her story, she has a message for young women: "Wait! Find a man who loves and who commits to you. Take care. Watch out."
This story was created in a CDS workshop organized by the Open Society Initiative for Southern Africa. You can learn more about the workshop and watch other stories produced there.

will stand for you no matter what
Dating is fun but one should set a limitation. It is the stage of getting to know lots of people with the hope of finding your “right” one. You're right Tuelo, WAITING for the man who will truly love and commit to us women is worth it for a happy and lasting relationship. It takes time to know a person very well and trust should be gained. To avoid such experience "the HIV positive thing"... better be cautious, make sure you know already the person very well, the commitment is already there and he/she truly love & care and will stand for you no matter what. ;-)
