One of my gay friends told me that another friend of ours is HIV+ and that I should therefore avoid him. I told him is HIV status doesn't matter to me and that he should never have to tell me. And even if he did, it doesn't even matter.

But it's been long and I didn't have the chance to tell him that, and also I am not sure about how reliable this information is.

So my intention is to express to my friend that even if he is HIV+ he should be careful about who he shares this information with on dating sites but also if he is not HIV positive it should not hurt him. As this guy used this information and rumour in a harmful way only.

    Perhaps a nice related one to read about friends outing pretty personal (but possibly fake) info: https://interpersonal.stackexchange.com/q/24275/1599 – Tinkeringbell Jan 04 '21 at 09:47

    the more I think about this, the more I think this might be a duplicate. Is there anything (except the kind of information being shared) that makes this different from the question I linked you above? – Tinkeringbell Jan 14 '21 at 14:28

    Does this answer your question? [How can I tell my date that one of her close friends outed her to me as trans?](https://interpersonal.stackexchange.com/questions/24275/how-can-i-tell-my-date-that-one-of-her-close-friends-outed-her-to-me-as-trans) – Ael Jan 14 '21 at 14:31
