One of my uncles got married to a beautiful woman. His wife is so beautiful that he suspects that she could be dating other men outside. In order to scare men away from his wife, he declared himself HIV positive while he's not. This he feel will stop men from going close to his wife not to talk of dating her. Do you think this man is wise or foolish? Please let's hear your opinion.

The man is too possesive of his spouse. And more than love towards his beautiful spouse he his suspectful. His attitudes will certainly will not create a good impression on his bride, which ultimately might lead to many disasters.

I think that is crazy and overboard. This won't stop her if she really is cheating. She could be meeting men he don't know. Plus if he does not feel he can trust her this will not fix the problem. This will only make matters worse. Lets say for "just because" it doesn't work out between him and his wife, now everyone thinks he has HIV. This will make dating amoung other things worse. If he is just jealous then he needs to get over it. If their is a valid reason why he beleives she is cheating then find out. Their are ways to find out. Then he can decide if he still wants to be with her and deal with this situation instead of telling everyone he has this disease.

Yes the problem is not solved by declaring himself HIV positive. Rather it gets worse. Thanks for your response.

I would say that his insecurities will eventually destroy his marriage. What he is doing is selfish, juvenile, immature, and it tells me a lot about this man, I am glad I am not in your new aunts place as his fears will only grow until he has her totally imprisoned. Very sad story, for him and her

I think that he is asking for trouble. It has always been my experience that when we say things, bad or good, eventually, they happen. For example, I once told my boss I was late to work because my car over-heated. Truth was, I over-slept, but didn't want to fess up. Two days later, my car really did over-heat! Not only is this guy asking for trouble, he is also has trust issues. If he trusted his wife, as he should, he wouldn't worry about other men approaching her. He would know that she would never stray.

no no!!i think your uncle have done a mistake that couldn't help him anything!because between man and wife first they should trust each other! if they not ,that is not a good marriage..what you do for this marriage is useless.. second, that is too bad to tell everyone that he is HIV positive..that is not honest and fair to his wife!!maybe it will lead to divorce!! so i think everyone in the world should be honest !!

Your uncle needs to be honest and confident.Cheating can not win a woman's heart.True love does.His wife married him because she loves your uncle.If she really goes out with other guys,that means she does not love him any more.If it is true,why hurt each other,why not move on!!

This man is very, very foolish for what he said! Doesn't he realize how scared people are of aids and hiv? He just set himself as well as his entire family up for ridicule, hatred and being ostrasized from society! People will now steer clear of all of you! That's what people do, they stay far away from people with aids and or hiv, they can not help it, it is human nature! You all might even loose your jobs because of him saying something like that, and if he thinks it will make other men run from his wife, he is partly right but in the long run it will also cause all of you hardship! If his wife is going to cheat, well she will cheat and nothing he says will stop her and saying he has hiv certainly didn't help the situation!

I think your uncle is really stupid and uncaring. First of all, if he does not trust hsi wife then whats the point of such a marriage. He might as well annul it , coz he will anyways ruin it with his suspicious mind. Second of all, a lot of people in this world are suffering from AIDS and to make light of it by using that is not a decent thing to do. He is demeaning himself in front of his famila dn friends by pulling such tactics.

I dont think that anyone should lie about having a disease like this. Its not funny or wise. Its demeaning to the people who do have to struggle with this and he is just using it in hopes to get something. It makes me sick.

I personally think your uncle is very silly. He loves her so he shouldn't say stuff like that to hurt her reputation and feelings. He is scared the wife is dating with another men so why would he marry her? It is very foolish to tell people he is HIV positive actually. I think he should trust his wife but not spearding this kinds of stupid rumors to make people get away from his wife. No offence but that's what I think.

There is power in the tongue. What if your Uncle's claim becomes true because of his possessive heart that taught him to declare false things, and much more, to fool also his own wife. I guess the wife would be devastated of his fake revelations and i guess that in order for him not to be fooled by his wife by being unfaithful, he planned of saying this to his wife which is really not necessary if the wife is faithful to his husband and the husband is also loyal to his wife. So sad that people would do such lies and not mind the commandments of God. They are more focus on their own self desire than to please God and fear Him that one of his commandments are disobeyed. Anyway this is my own personal viewpoint.

I've never heard of anything like this before. Is your uncle seriously thinking about what he is telling people? While his intentions are to keep his wife faithful, this lie is doing more harm than good. If she is going to cheat, she will cheat. Also, if he is telling other people that he has AIDS just so they will stay away from his wife, has he considered that she may leave him because of this? I think that his behavior is espcially disrespectful to alot of people, especially those living with and fight AIDS everyday. Besides from the fact that he is lying about a serious disease, this brings some other questions and concerns to mind. I was just wondering if he thinks about the family and friends they could both lose. Or about some of the opportunities they could miss because of this lie. I also wonder about the safety of his wife. If he is willing to do this to keep other men away from her, what will he do next? And, its not just her safety, what about everyone around her or who knows her. This seems beyond foolish and something needs to be done before it gets worse. Just a thought!

I think he's crazy. Love and marriage are based on confidence but not on isolation. He would separate his couple from the community, unless he's still so innocent to imagine that people around him are always friendly and accept this desease. Does he think that his child will have many friends under this circumstance. Yes, healthy me would stop dating with the beautiful wife, but the HIV infected men will find a good chance and maybe the husband will catch a real disaster.

Hi, Eweniks! At first I thought that you meant that you were HIV positive! Okay, it is your uncle. Well, I think that he is very foolish, it is wise not to play around like that. It is wise not to say things that is not true. Your uncle has to be very careful with the choice of his words. He don't want to say something that is not true, that is how karma comes back to haunt him. What if he was to actually get HIV, forreal???? Then he will not be too happy! He needs to get over his insecurities, it is not wise to be like this as a man. He has to be aware that other men will find his wife attractive and there is nothing he can do about that. Declaring that he is HIV postive to the world is not a very smart and wise thing to do!

You scared me! I don't think the topic of your discussion is right.Do you want to attract more people to watch your discussion? I even don't believe this is a real story.But still I want to say something. I don't think your uncle is wise,he is foolish and crazy.He ruined his own life and his wife's life.If he doesn't believe in her,why did he marry her? Relationship needs trust.

Being a HIV positive is a serious case and people without further awareness of the disease will descriminate the person having the disease and they might not have a comfortable life anymore. In your case, you uncle is not a wise man, he is a foolish. He is building his own nightmare. All he have to do is to talk to his wife.

reading the title I thought you were HIV positive! while your uncle declared he was HIV positive, did his wife said anything? your uncle is insecure. love is based on mutual trust. now the husband does not trust his wife, their relation I am afraid won't go a long way. even if their relationship could last, both of them would not be happy. this is such a stupid way of keeping men not having affair with his wife.
