Yes, it does. For the most part, I felt rather safe for myself, as my
playing around days were short-lived and pretty much preceded the first
known occurrences of AIDS. While I was in college (graduated in '67), I
began my first "long term" relationship which lasted nearly 5 years. It
was only a couple of years after that when I met the person I would spend
the next 20 years with. Near the end of that relationship I met David, and
we've been together ever since. I know it only takes one exposure, but my
windows of opportunity to exposure was fairly limited. In all three
relationships, both of us were faithful to each until each ended.
