Answer
It’s smart to keep proof that you told your partner about your HIV status. Some ways to do that include:
- Take a screenshot of a text where they say they know your status
- Ask them to sign and date a note confirming you disclosed—then take a photo
- Record a video or audio of the conversation
- Have someone you trust present as a witness
